Banner/Overlay For individual items for Specific Collection

Topic summary

A gift box retailer needs to add visual sale indicators (badges/overlays) to specific products across multiple collections. The challenge is that sale items don’t have price reductions—they’re discontinued stock being cleared out—so standard discount badges don’t apply.

Key Requirements:

  • Sale items appear in multiple collections (e.g., “Sale” and “Under £20”)
  • Need consistent visual markers across all collection pages
  • Important distinction: sale items don’t include free gift wrapping (customers must add it), unlike regular items
  • Goal is to prevent customer confusion about different treatment of sale items

Current Situation:

  • All sale items are tagged/grouped in a dedicated Sale Collection
  • No visual differentiation when these items appear in other collections
  • Mock-up image shows desired badge placement on product tiles

Status: User is seeking either an app solution or custom CSS approach to implement collection-based product badges. Discussion remains open with no solution provided yet.

Please could someone help, is there a way to add a little image to individual items in a certain collection.

I want add this to all items in said collection because they are sale items.

However not all of them have had a price reduction, we are getting rid of stock we no longer want.

The business is a gift box company that sell boxes of 3 - 8 items per box, but now would like a way to showcase sale items across all the collections we have.

I currently have all the sale items in the Sale Collection, however it is not obvious to people that these items are on sale in other collections such as Under £20

Below is a draft idea for what I am aiming for, is there an app or anything that could help achieve something like this?

Hi @RobynWinters

I see there are discount boxes available here
isn’t that good?

Hi Daisy,

Unfortunately not. If you go onto the sale page the items are not all marked with discounts. There would not be any discounts on these items as they were once part of a gift box which we are trying to sell.

The idea is that these sale items may appear on other pages across the website, not just the sale page.

Any item that is marked as a sale item will not be packaged with gift wrapping. For sale items the customer can add gift wrapping whereas on non-sale items gift wrapping is free.

I want to ensure there are clear indicators of the sale on the items to not upset customers.
