Product boxes

A very important element of your store

The product boxes, or the general display of your products in the listing, are very important for your sales figures. An appealing and well thought-out presentation of your products ultimately leads to more sales.

That's why I have integrated a range of setting options into the theme to cover as many use cases as possible.

General Settings

Much of this is self-explanatory or becomes clear at the latest with the help texts for the fields, but I will go into 2 points in more detail:

  • Rich Snippets These are the meta details of the products that are passed to search engines such as Google. This setting gives you the best possible SEO for your products.

  • Fit of the Product image Depending on the type of your product images, you can select the optimum setting here:

    Cover: A section of the image is displayed. Note that the product images may be cropped. The focus is on a uniform look of the listing.

    Contain (recommended): No matter how much your images differ in height, the product images are automatically optimized for the designated area.

Advanced Settings

Here you can make detailed settings for the display. The "Maximum height of the product image" goes hand in hand with the previous setting "Product image fit". So pay attention to this!

The font sizes should be self-explanatory, but a very important setting is the maximum number of lines for the respective contents of the box.

Example:

Your products have titles of different lengths, which means that some titles may be displayed in 2 lines. For products with less long titles, the title is displayed in 1 line.

What is the Problem?

This results in the product boxes being displayed at different heights and thus destroys the uniform overall picture when products are placed next to each other.

How can I solve the Problem?

You should find a compromise and categorize the respective areas according to the lowest common denominator. So limit the number of lines so that the overall impression fits again.
