Best way to feature a new product in "Motion" theme

Ask Me Anything Q&A Themes Office Hours

Topic summary

Main issue: How to prominently feature a single new product in the Motion theme’s Shop area and navigation.

Requests:

  • Preferably make it the first collection listed in the “Shop” dropdown; asking if this is possible.
  • If not, feature it on the Shop page without creating layout or usability issues.

What’s been tried:

  • Featured product section: the product’s long description makes the page require excessive scrolling.
  • Featured collection section: the collection has only one item, producing an oversized image; asking if the image can be made smaller.

Open questions:

  • Best practice to highlight a product that is the only item in its category.
  • Whether image size can be controlled when a collection contains a single product.
  • If the “Shop” dropdown order can be adjusted to put this first.

Status: No resolution yet; guidance and recommendations requested.

I have a new product I want to feature in the “Shop” section. Ideally, I would like to make it the first collection in the dropdown menu when you click “Shop.” Is there a way to do that?

If not, I’d like to feature it on the Shop page. I tried adding it as a “featured product,” but the item description is really long, so you have to keep scrolling for a long time to get past it.

I added it as a “featured collection,” but it’s the only product in its collection so that image is giant - is there a way to make the image smaller?

Do you have a recommendation for how to feature a product that is the only product in its category?
