Create a Product template

You can easily create a unique individual template for each of your products that presents specialized information and rich content blocks.

Info: Your original product page URL remains unchanged. 

Step 1: Create a new product:

  • From your Shopify admin, go to Products.
  • From the Products page, click Add product.
  • Enter a title for your product, along with additional details.
  • Click Save.
Note:  If you want to create a template for an existing product, simply go to your Shopify admin > Products > click the name of the product that you want, then follow Step 2 below.

Step 2 (optional): Create a Clean template

We recommend you create a Clean template for each type of page (Product page, Webpage, Blog Post page) first.

A Clean template allows you to hide/remove unused sections of your default templates and only display custom app sections created by the Easy Content Builder.

Learn more about What a Clean template is and How to create a Clean template.

Step 3: Create and assign a product template

From the Product Edit page, click More action (that appears in the upper-right of the form), click Create Template for this page:

From Easy Content Builder dashboard, you can either create a new template based on:

  • Existing templates (if available) of your main theme that you created using the Easy Content Builder
  • Creating a Clean Template (refer to section Create Clean Template for more details)
  • Using a pre-built template

When prompted to confirm, click ‘OK’. Then, you will be automatically directed to the Theme Editor where you can start adding content blocks to the template you’ve just created (Please refer to section Adding ECB Blocks for more details).

Another way to create a template:

You can also create a new template from the dropdown menu in the Theme Editor (click Products, then scroll down and click Create template). Once the template is created, go to the Shopify admin > Products, open the product you want and assign the template you’ve created (under the Theme Template section).

Once the new Product template is in place, you can start adding content blocks (Please refer to the section Customize Template with Theme Editor and ECB Block Settings for more details)
