Learn how to assign products to custom page templates in GemPages. This guide shows you how to set a default template or assign specific products using the Product Assignment feature.
Shopify offers a single template applicable to all your products. Conversely, GemPages provides the flexibility to create a unique product page template that can be universally applied or selectively assigned to different products through the convenient Product Assignment feature.
This guide will walk you through the steps of associating specific products with a particular template, allowing you to showcase the GemPages design instead of the default theme template. Typically, you have two choices: make a template the default for all your products or selectively assign it to one or more products.
Make a template default
Please follow the steps below to apply a template to all the products.
Step 1: Go to Shopify Admin > Apps and select GemPages Builder to access GemPages Dashboard.
Step 2: Navigate to the Page section. Select the Product page type and locate your preferred template.
Step 3: Click on the three-dot button next to the template name. Choose “Make default”.
Click on “Confirm.”
Assign specific products to a template
From GemPages Dashboard
Step 1: From the GemPages Dashboard, navigate to the Page section. Select the Product page type and locate your preferred template.
Step 2: Click on the “Assign Product” button next to the template name.
An open window will appear, allowing you to select the products. Check the box next to the products you want to assign to the template. To find products faster, you can use the search bar.
Hit “Confirm” when finished.
From the Editor
Step 1: From the GemPages Dashboard > Pages, select your preferred page to access the Editor.
Step 2: Select the “Product Assigned” button at the top of your page. A pop-up window will appear, allowing you to choose products to associate with the template. Tick the box next to the desired product and confirm your selection.
Enable “Display by assigned products”
This function enables automatic synchronization of Shopify data for products assigned within the template. It’s highly recommended for your default template or templates assigning multiple products. To activate this feature, follow the steps below:
Step 1: From the GemPages Dashboard > Pages, select your preferred page to access the Editor.
Step 2: Locate the Product Module. Click on the Product Module to reveal the configuration on the left sidebar of the Editor. Under “Select Product,” choose the option “Display by assigned product” from the drop-down menu.
The product information will remain fixed if you opt for the “Select Manually” option. This is useful, for instance, when you have a template with only one assigned product or when creating a product bundle to display multiple products on the same page.
