What is LLMs.txt?

An llms.txt file is a short Markdown index of your e-shop written for AI assistants and LLM agents (for example ChatGPT, Perplexity or Claude). It helps those tools understand what your shop is about and which pages matter most.

It works together with your other machine-readable files:

Business value: when buyers ask AI tools about promotional products, returns policy or who sells a category you offer, a clear llms.txt makes it easier for those tools to cite your shop and point to the right pages — instead of guessing from messy page HTML or a competitor’s site.

For the public convention, see llmstxt.org.

Default LLMs.txt (automatic)

While your shop is running, TronShop already generates a default llms.txt for you. You do not need to enable anything.

The file is built from your shop data (shop name, homepage description, top navigation categories, information pages and sitemap) and is published at:

https://<your-shop-domain>/llms.txt

Where to find the settings

In your TronShop Admin navigate to:

Settings → Advanced functions → LLMs.txt

With the toggle off, TronShop keeps serving the generated default. You only see the unlock switch and the warning text:

Unlocking a custom LLMs.txt

Use a custom file only if you need different wording or structure than the automatic one and only if you are familiar with LLMs.txt configurations.

1. Switch Unlock Custom LLMs.txt Configuration on.
2. In the pop-up window, read the confirmation and press OK (or Cancel to stay on the default).
   By confirming, you take full responsibility for the effects that changes you apply may cause.
3. After OK, the editing field is enabled. It works like a text file and shows your current template (usually the same as the generated default, using placeholders). On the right you see Supported placeholders.
   

Using placeholders

Prefer placeholders instead of hard-coded shop names or category URLs. Tokens are replaced when the file is served, so the content stays in sync with your shop.

Block placeholders insert lines like - [Title](url). You keep the ## heading yourself (as in the default template).

Saving, reset and checking the live file

1. After editing, press Save at the bottom of the page.
2. To restore the generated baseline into the editor, use Reset to Default.
3. To discard the custom file entirely and return to the automatic one, turn the unlock toggle off and confirm.
4. Open https://<your-shop-domain>/llms.txt (private / incognito window is best) and verify the content.

Allow up to about one hour for the storefront cache to refresh after save.

Keep llms.txt short and high-signal. Put the full URL inventory in sitemap.xml. Do not put internal or secret URLs into a custom file.
