Map

Use the Map section to promote your brick-and-mortar retail stores. This section is designed specifically for your address information and store hours.

Add a map section

To add a map section:

STEPS
  1. From your Customize theme editor, choose Home page from the pages drop-down menu at the top of the screen.

  2. Scroll down the list of home page settings until you see the Add section button.

  3. Choose Map from the list of sections.

    This opens the Map section settings.

  4. Add up to two content blocks using the Add text button. By default, one is for Hours and one is for Address. But you can use them for whatever you want.

  5. Add or upload an Image to be displayed in this section.

  6. Use the Image position setting to place the image on the Left or Right half of the section.

    On mobile, the image is always shown at the top of the section. This is so that the text can be a single, flowing section. See an example:

  7. Change the Heading and Subheading text.

  8. Add a Link and Link text, which is attached to a call to action button.

    We recommend copy and pasting a link from Google Maps with a pin on your store address, like this:

    In this case, the URL would be very long and would look like this:

    https://www.google.com/maps/Hide+%2B+Seek+Coffee,+Oak+Bay+Avenue,+Victoria,+ BC/@48.4264514,-123.3506368,13z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m8!4m7!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0x548 f74419d963d6d:0x22a43b6d36274839!2m2!1d-123.3156176!2d48.4263998

    If you want to link to a external page, like an Instagram profile page, you need to type (or copy and paste) the full URL starting with https://. For example: https://maps.google.com/abc123.

  9. (Optional.) Check the Enable contrast checkbox to use Ira's contrast color set.

    Contrast colors are a great way to break up your home page and make it more interesting.

    You can configure these colors from Ira's Colors settings.

  10. (Optional.) Choose whether to Enable full width.

    Enabling this setting removes any borders around the section, letting it fill the entire width of the screen.

  11. Return to the list of Home page sections to find your new Map section.

Use the drag handles to rearrange the order of your Home page sections:

  1. Click Save.
