Skip to main content
Shopping worlds replace the automatically generated category pages of your web shop with editorially maintained content. This turns a plain article list into a complete experience page with banners, highlights, and custom text.
With Create from template, you can generate a shopping world directly from a page template, including pre-built content.

Creating a new shopping world

Open Structure → Shopping Worlds in the sidebar and click + New.
