Customizing the Built-in Slide Show

A full width slider is available upon request. The full width slider requires custom images sized 1400px x 520px (jpg or png). Sliders with dynamic HTML content/buttons/video etc can be created by contacting the Custom Design department through the ticket system.

Title Element Composition

The title bar is composed of the following: [Category or Collection Name][Style Number][Product Short Description][Global Title Bar text which is set in General Settings -> HTML Inserts -> 1 ], in that order.

To edit the title element for a specific category go to "Edit Collection/Category Details" called "Title of this Collection/Category for HTML "TITLE" element if different from above". This will override the collection name if given, otherwise the collection name is used. This will also be used as the automatic add-in for the meta tags.

To edit the Title element for a specific product, go to "Manage Products" -> Navigate to a product and click "Edit", enter the new Title in "Product HTML Title Override". You can also edit META keywords/description for the product here in "Product META Keywords Override" and "Product META Description Override". Enter only the keywords/description, not the entire META tag.
