How To Assign a Collection to a Collection Page

Assign a Collection to Your Collection Page

Within GemPages v7, you can assign a collection to your collection page directly in the dashboard or enter the editor to proceed. Follow these steps below:

From the GemPages Dashboard

• Log in to your Shopify admin and access the GemPages Builder app.
• Go to Pages > Collection to see all your collection pages built with GemPages
• Hover on the target collection page and click Assign collections to assign a collection to this page.

• In the dialog, you have two options:

1. Apply to Selected Collections

This option allows you to manually select specific collections that will use this template.

Click on Select Collections, then choose the collections you want to assign.

2. Apply to All Collections

This option will replace the default collection page and apply this template to all collections in your store, except those already assigned to another template.

If you want all collections to follow a uniform design, this is the recommended option.

• Once done, hit the Confirm button to save your update.

From the GemPages Editor

Step 1: Access GemPages Editor

• From the GemPages Dashboard > Pages, click on the target collection page to enter the editor.
• If you haven’t created a collection page yet, refer to this article to set up one.

Step 2: Assign collections to the page

Once you have selected the collection page template, you will see an option to assign collections. 

GemPages enables you to link multiple Shopify collections to a single collection page template. This way, you can showcase products from various collections together on a single page by choosing the collections you want while setting up your template.

• Choose Apply to all collections if you want to assign all available collections to your collection page. 

• If you prefer to select one or multiple collections, select Apply to selected collections and click the box next to the target collection you want to assign.

Step 3: Confirm and Save

• Review your selection to ensure the correct collections are assigned.
• Click Confirm to finalize the assignment.
• Click Save & Publish to apply the changes to your store.
