About the Product List element
The Product List plays a crucial role by showcasing a range of products. Its purpose is to effectively increase sales value by enabling upselling and cross-selling to your customers. Unlike its previous version, the Product List element v7 offers the ability to selectively choose specific products to display, enhancing the flexibility of webpage design.
From the GemPages Dashboard, open your preferred template to edit. You can quickly find the Product list element on the left sidebar of the Editor, under the Product section. Drag & drop it into your preferred position to start editing.
To access the configuration options for the Product List, simply click on it. The left sidebar will then reveal the Settings and Advanced tabs, allowing you to customize its behavior and appearance.

Product Source
The new version provides you with the flexibility to choose from two different types of product showcases. Depending on your requirements, you can make a selection from the dropdown menu:
- Pick products: By choosing this option, you have the freedom to handpick specific products to be showcased together, regardless of whether they belong to the same collection or not. Hit “Pick products” and start selecting the products from the list.
If you want to re-order the products, just simply drag the product to the position you wish.
- Pick collection: If you wish to showcase products from a particular collection, select this option. Please ensure that you have set up the collections in your Shopify Admin beforehand, as the element will retrieve information from there. To create a new collection, you can access Shopify Admin > Products > Collections. If your store does not have any collections yet, you can refer to this comprehensive article by Shopify for step-by-step instructions on creating a new collection.
In case you choose to show the products by collection, you will have the option to show the products in different orders: Name A-Z, Name Z- A, and New arrivals.
