Create a content page

Content pages are pages such as About us, Contact, FAQ or How to order. Each page has its own address on your store, and you can add it to the menu at the top or bottom.

A new store comes with eight sample pages. You only need to edit their content to fit your store, or create new pages when you need them.

Create a new page

  1. Go to Online Store › Pages.
  2. Click Create new page.
  3. Enter the Page title, for example About our shop. When you leave this field, the URL path (slug) is made from the title.
  4. Check the URL path, and edit it if needed.
  5. Choose the Page type, for example About. If the content field is empty, a sample content outline is filled in.
  6. Write the content in the Page content field, or edit the sample to fit your store.
  7. In the Publishing options card, leave Publish now on if you want customers to see the page right away. Turn it off to save a draft.
  8. Click Save.

To make the URL path again from the title, click the two circling arrows icon Regenerate from name at the end of the URL path field. After you save, the edit page of the new page opens. On a phone, open Online Store from the menu at the top left to see Pages.

Add images to the content

  1. In the Page content field, place the cursor where you want the image.
  2. Click the image icon Insert Image on the toolbar.
  3. In the Select file box, click Upload.
  4. Choose an image on your computer. The image is inserted into the content as soon as it uploads.
  5. Click Save.

To use an image you already have, skip steps 3 and 4. Tick the image under Select from library and click Select file.

Edit an existing page

  1. Go to Online Store › Pages.
  2. Click the title of the page you want to edit.
  3. Edit the title or the content.
  4. Click Save.

A published page has a View page button at the top to open it on your store. A draft page has a Preview button so you can see it before customers can.

Once the page is saved, the bottom of the edit page also has an SEO settings card to edit the title and description that show on Google. It works the same way as for products, see Optimize a product for Google (SEO).

Hide, duplicate or delete a page

To hide a page without deleting it:

  1. Open the page.
  2. In the Publishing options card, turn off Publish.
  3. Click Save.

To create a new page based on an existing one:

  1. Open the page.
  2. Click More actions at the top.
  3. Choose Duplicate page.

The copy has (Copy) after the title, -copy added to the URL path, and the status Draft. Change the title and URL path before you publish.

To delete a page:

  1. Open the page.
  2. Click More actions.
  3. Choose Delete page.
  4. Click Delete to confirm.

In the Pages list, you can also do these through the three-dot icon More actions at the end of each row: Edit, View on store, Duplicate and Delete.

Frequently asked questions

Which pages does a new store come with?

Về chúng tôi (About us), Liên hệ (Contact), Câu hỏi thường gặp (FAQ), Hướng dẫn mua hàng (How to order), and four policy pages, Chính sách bảo mật (Privacy policy), Điều khoản dịch vụ (Terms of service), Chính sách đổi trả (Return policy) and Chính sách vận chuyển (Shipping policy). All eight pages are published, and most are already in the menu at the bottom of your store.

What is a page's address on my store?

Your store's domain, then /pages/ and the page's URL path. For example, the built-in Contact page is at /pages/contact.

If I change a page's URL path, does the old link still work?

No. Changing a content page's URL path doesn't create a redirect. If the old link has been shared, add a redirect from the old path to the new path in Online Store › URL redirects. Menu items follow the new path on their own.

I choose a Page type but the sample content doesn't show?

The sample content is only filled in when the Page content field is empty. If you have already typed something, the dashboard keeps your content.

Who can create and edit content pages?

The Store Owner, Administrators and Staff can all create, edit, duplicate and delete pages.
