Create Templates for Product List and Product Detail Pages

With Page Designer’s new dynamic page feature, you can easily create rich, engaging templates for Product Detail or Product List pages. You can assign the template to multiple categories. When a Product List or Product Detail page is rendered in the storefront for one of the assigned categories, the template page is displayed, populated with the appropriate product information.

Why: Set up a Product List or Product Detail template page one time, with layout, components, text, and graphics customized for your storefront. There’s no need to create a separate page for every category. Categories you assign to the template page are automatically rendered using the template.

How: Using our new wizard, create the template page using a page layout designated for Product List or Product Detail pages. Add components to create the look you want. Now developers can incorporate content in components that’s different depending on which category is rendered on the page. For example, a dynamic headline banner component displays the name and image for whatever category is rendered on the page, without any configuration required. You can override the dynamic content in the component. For example, you can specify that the headline banner displays a name or image that's different from the name and image of the category rendered on the page.

During page creation or later in Page Settings, assign the template page to one or more of the categories defined in your site’s catalog.
