Pages
A store can contain unlimited pages. Pages can have a custom URL however there are certain reserved transactional page URL’s which can’t be used such as “/checkout” or “/cart”. Pages contain one or many components which can be combined to build out a page.
Managing Pages
From the store builder select Pages under the Content menu.
Filter pages by search, Category Type or Enabled/Disabled.
Open the page editor by selecting the Page Name.
Page Tabs
The page editor contains the following tabs which control various aspects of the pages.
Creating a Page
From the store builder navigate to Content then Pages.
Select Add Page.
Page Info
The Page Info tab allows you to edit your pages Title and Meta Description as well as other meta data associated with the page.
Navigation Title - Title that is displayed on the store builder list of pages.
Meta Title - While a page title isn’t strictly a meta tag, it is a valuable piece of metadata that is used to concisely tell search engines what a web page is about. See What is a page title? for more information. Dynamic Variables can be used.
Meta Description - A meta description is a meta tag included in the head of a page that provides a description of the page’s content for search engines and social media platforms. See What is a meta description? for more information. Dynamic Variables can be used.
Dynamic Variables
Dynamic Variables allow for dynamic data such as a category name or facet. A list of Dynamic Variables can be found by clicking on the Dynamic Variables help link in the Page Info tab.
Example of a Meta Title
Custom ${searchTerm} ${facetPrefix} ${categoryName} ${facetSuffix}.Which might display.
Custom 20oz Black Water Bottles with a carabiner.Head Tags
Heat tags can be applied globally to the store as well as individual pages. See Head Tags for more information on how to configure and manage tags on your store.
Components
Components are the building blocks of pages. Add, remove, and reorder both global and non global components to build your pages. See Components for more information.
Media
The media tab is a way to upload media or other files associated with the page such as PDF’s and videos. Once a file is uploaded a link can be copied from the list and used with your pages.
Categories
Pages can also be associated with various categories to help internally link them. This is particularly useful for Blog Posts where a post might be related to a product, theme, occasion event or other category type allowing for an except of the post to be displayed using the Blog Post List component. For example a blog post might be written about water bottles. That post could then be associated with the Water Bottles Product Category. The category page could then contain the Blog Post List component and display a list of blog posts associated with Water Bottles.
Draft Pages
Draft pages are a way to make changes to a draft then publish those changes.
Select Create Draft to create a draft version of the page or toggle between a live and draft page.
Make your changes to the page then select Publish when you want to set the page live. If making changes to a live page you can select Update Draft to update the draft version of the page.
When publishing a draft page any global components associated with it will also have their draft versions published. Ensure that your global components have current draft versions before publishing.
