Blogs

You can customize how your Blogs page looks. The blogs page is where you can find a list of all your blog posts.

Customize your blogs page

To customize your blogs page:

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

  2. Select Blog pages from the list of sections.

    RSS is a way for customers to subscribe to your blog. Only some people use it, but the people who do love it. Learn more about it from RSS.com's article How Do RSS Feeds Work?.

Blog posts

With Lorenza, blog posts are formatted beautifully, just like the rest of the store. If you've added a featured image to you blog post, it's displayed boldly before the body content::

While adding a new blog post, just use the Featured image field::

Cart

Lorenza's cart page is simple and shows customers exactly what they need to see.

Here it is on a mobile device::

By default, the cart page is automatically updated whenever the customer makes changes to their cart contents. Even if they do it in another browser tab. We recommend leaving this setting alone, but it can be turned off.

Set up the cart page

To customize the cart page:

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

  2. Select Cart page from the list of sections.

  3. Choose whether to Enable automatic cart updates.

    Turning this off means that customers may need to refresh the page to see the latest changes to their cart.

  4. Go to the Theme settings settings tab and press Cart for additional cart settings.

    You can learn more about these settings from the theme settings Cart article.

Settings reference

The cart page has the following settings:

Enable automatic cart updates

Check this checkbox to automatically refresh the cart contents whenever it is changed.

This setting is enabled by default.

Collections list

You can change the look and feel of your /collections/all page, which is where a customer can view a list of all of your product collections.

And here it is on a mobile device::

By default all of your collections are shown. But Lorenza can help you override this behavior, and let you instead show a list of collections you want to feature.

Bonus: You can also add special content layouts to your about pages.

Settings reference

About pages have the following settings.

Small heading

Add a mini heading to the about page. We recommend keeping this to a word or two.

For each image you add to the about page:

Image

Add or upload an image for the current about page collage block.

Paste a link to an MP4 file that should be auto-played in the about page collage block, taking the place of the image.

Settings reference

You can upload videos to your about page, instead of displaying images. Before you start setting this up, you should know a few things:

✓ You'll need your video as an MP4 video file.

✓ For the best customer experience, we strongly recommend using a 20- to 30-second video that's under 10MB in size.

✗ You can't use a service like YouTube or Vimeo to host this video. Our Video section is designed for those.
