Europe template
Here you will find the most used functions in the Europe templates (Paris, Barcelona and Berlin).
All our premium templates come with configurable settings for a number of parameters. Among other things, these can be used to upload and link banners to relevant content in the store, change colors on central elements in the store, select fonts and adjust the display of products and menus.
Below is a review of the most used functionalities that are available in Design settings.
The design settings are available in your control panel under Design > Your design. Then press Design settings.
Banner Images
Under the menu item banner images, you have access to all banner positions that are available for the design template Paris.
These are grouped with letters and numbers. Each letter denotes a row, and the numbers indicate the order from left to right as they appear on the page. You can change the location of ad banner B1, B2, C and D.
Click on the gray field to bring up the menu for each banner. Here you can upload pictures, add a link to which the individual banner should link. It can be a link to product pages, category pages or fixed content. It is also possible to enter external links. It is not possible to create a link to an external page that opens in a new window (new tab).
When you enter a link on an ad banner, it is important that you only use the url for the product or category, i.e. what is behind the domain name, but with a / in front. See example above.
Specifically for the A1 banner, if you upload more than one image, these will act as a carousel on the page where one and one image is displayed at given intervals. For other banners, there is one image per banner space.
There is support for several full-width banners and several banners can be placed relatively freely on the front page. Banner B, C and D have three alternative placements. Text on banner images has been removed, except on Banner F1-4. Support has been added to use alternative text on banners. This text is not displayed, but search engines like this text, so it affects the display in Google.
On banner F1-4 it is possible to add Mouseover effect. That is, you can choose that the images should have a zoom effect when you move the mouse pointer over them.
Banner sizes:
Banner A1. Full-width banner at the top of the page. Pc. Recommended size: 1600x550px. Mobile banner. Recommended size: 700 x 500px.
Banner B1 and B2. 50% wide banner that can be moved. Recommended: 800px wide x 550px high.
Banner C and D. Full-width banner that can be moved. Recommended: 1600x500px
Banner F1-F4, G1-G4, H1-H4. 1/4 wide banners that are placed in the upper part of the page. Recommended: 400x400px.
Top Line and Menu
Here you can enter sales-promoting arguments such as "free shipping over NOK 500,-" and the like. You can also choose the display of language selector and currency selector if these functionalities are activated in the store.
Under Megamenu you can adjust the number of columns the menu should display, as well as choose whether brands, news and offers should be visible choices in the main menu.
Under general settings, you can choose whether you want docked header, which means that the menu is fixed at the top of the page when you scroll down.
Under general settings, you can change the icon for the shopping cart.
The dropdown menu opens by clicking, not by hover (when you put the mouse pointer on the menu item) as before.
Bottom Line
Bottom line (footer) is created automatically and uses company information, address, e-mail, etc. from the control panel. You can find this under the menu item configuration, general.
You can also choose several styles on the bottom line if you choose widgets, custom text boxes. Widgets must then be created from Design -> Boxes in the menu bar.
Colors
The design templates have many settings for colors that can be selected in Design settings - Colors. We offer a package for configuration and one hour review of design settings adapted to the company's graphic profile.
Font Types and Sizes
You can now have one font type on body text, that is all text on the website, and another font type on headings.
Select main font in the store first, and then font on headings. There are approx. 30 available Google fonts, and you can also choose the thickness of the headings. Ps! Not all fonts have different thickness.
System Texts and Headings
Some of the texts on the page are generated automatically by the system, some of these you can overwrite if desired.
Under texts on the front page, you can choose a new heading on the available product blocks. This applies to selected products, new products and offer products. You can also choose to add your own heading for the Instagram widget if it is installed.
It is also possible to adjust the headings on the front page, either right, left-aligned or centered text.
We also have settings for texts on the product boxes. Here you can choose your own text for the news and offer tapes, or choose whether the offer tapes should show a percentage rate instead of text.
Headings can be changed to show only uppercase letters.
Product Page
In the menu item product page, you can customize which information should be displayed at product level. You can choose to show the name of the manufacturer, stock status and article number.
Setup of Product Boxes
Here you will find settings to adjust how many product boxes you want to show per row on the front page and category pages, divided by which type of device (screen size) customers use when they visit the page.
You also have a number of choices for how much information you want to include in product boxes at category level, for example news and offer tapes, purchase button and product description.
Side Menu on Category Pages
In Paris there is support for side menu/sidebar. If you want a side menu in the online store, please contact kundeservice@acendy.no.
