If the store uses the design builder
In the design builder, the blocks on the front page determine which product lists the customer sees. Therefore, these toggles are not displayed when the store uses the design builder:
- Show text box above products on the front page?
- Show "New products" on the front page?
- Visible in the online store on the featured products page
If you want to show or hide new products or featured products on the front page, add or remove the block in the design builder.
Show offers on the front page is still displayed, and controls the offers on the front page in the design builder as well.
The selections you made in the hidden switches will be saved. If the store switches back to an older design template, the same choices will apply again.
Featured products
Which products are featured is selected under Marketing › Featured products. There you will also find the field Max number of featured products. It is the same setting as in the card Front page, so you can change it in both places.

Tip
- You still write the front page text itself in the publishing tool. Under the tab Page settings on the front page there, you will find the button Front page settings, which takes you straight to the card Front pageTitle and meta description are the first things a customer sees of the store in Google. Write them for the customer, not just for the search engine.
