How to Convert a Collection Page to Another Page Type

GemPages allows you to duplicate your existing Collection Page into a different page type without losing your design elements. Here’s how:

Option 1: Using the GemPages Dashboard

Step 1: Log in to your GemPages account and navigate to the Pages section.

Step 2: Find the Collection Page you wish to convert.

Step 3: Click on the three-dot menu (⋮) next to the page title and select Clone to other page type.

Step 4: Choose the desired page type (e.g., Product Page, Landing Page) from the dropdown menu.

Step 5: Enter a new title for the page if necessary and click Confirm. The duplicated page will now appear under the selected page type section.

Option 2: Using the GemPages Editor

Step 1: From the GemPages Dashboard, click on the Collection Page you want to convert to open it in the editor.

Step 2: In the editor’s top bar, click on the three-dot menu (⋮) and select Clone to other page type.

Step 3: In the dialog box, select the desired page type and enter the new page title.

Step 4: Click Confirm to proceed. The page will be duplicated and saved under the new page type.

Additional Tips

• Preserve Original Design: Cloning the page ensures that your original Collection Page remains unchanged, allowing you to experiment with different page types without affecting the existing layout.
• Assigning Templates: After creating a new page, you can assign it as the default for specific collections or products, or set it as the homepage, depending on the page type. 
• Utilize Theme Sections: For elements that appear across multiple pages (like headers, footers, or FAQs), consider using GemPages’ Theme Sections feature. This allows you to update a section once and have the changes reflected across all pages where it’s used.
