How to parametrize catalogs, templates, showroom and more

Updated over 2 years ago

A parameter is a text, number, or image that you can change in one place and it will be updated everywhere.

Add parameters to your catalog content, headers, templates, showrooms, and any place with editable content in a few steps.

Add Parameters

  1. Go to the parameters page

  2. Click add a new parameter

  3. Enter parameter name and select type Text, Rich Text (can be formatted), Image, Number, or Money

Override parameter values

You can replace parameter values for specific catalogs, showrooms, categories, or collections. Order parameters by priority. For example, if the parameter has an override for the catalog and collection, you can select precedence (from the top).

Language parameters

Add language parameter overrides that will be replaced based on the view language.
