The home page contains a slider, banner, category grid, featured products, reviews, posts and footer.

In START you can configure:

  • main slider: slides, images, headings, copy, links, autoplay and interval;
  • hero banner: image, heading, text and buttons;

The catalogue groups products into categories and subcategories. For every important category, fill in the name, description, image, meta title and meta description.

Product catalogue
The catalogue lets customers browse products by category and open the product page.

Product Page

Important product fields:

  • enabled - whether the product can be sold;
  • sku - base SKU;
  • price and compare_at_price - price and crossed-out price;
  • tax_class - tax rate;
  • stock and low_stock_threshold - stock level and low-stock threshold;
  • product_type, primary_category, categories - product classification;
  • manufacturer_code - manufacturer or brand;
  • tags, badge, featured, excerpt - presentation fields;
  • variants - product variants, for example colour, size or material;
  • addon_groups - add-on groups attached to the main product;
  • google_merchant - basic product feed data.
Product page
The product page shows images, variants, add-ons, price, stock and the add-to-cart action.

Variants And Add-Ons

Variants are used to sell versions of one product. Each variant can have its own SKU, price, stock and visibility.

Add-ons allow customers to buy the main product together with additional products. An add-on group can be:

  • checkbox - the customer may choose many add-ons;
  • radio - the customer chooses one add-on;
  • optional or required;
  • with a fixed quantity or a quantity edited by the customer.

In the cart, add-ons depend on the main product. The customer should not change them independently, and removing the main product also removes its add-ons.

Cart, Shipping And Checkout

The cart shows products, variants, add-ons, quantities, prices and order value.

In the shipping step, the seller can use methods configured in the panel: courier, pickup, cash on delivery, free shipping from a threshold and country limits.

Shipping step
