How to make the product page the home page of the website?

Technical Q&A
1

Hello everyone,

I have a client who wanted me to build this extremely primitive shopify store, and they want this table to appear on the home page. I inserted the table into a product description as an HTML code. However, when we land on the home page, this product window is being displayed:

Instead of this, I would like this to be displayed on the landing page of the website which is the page of the product window I showed above:

How can I manage to do this?

Hope I managed to explain what I want to do. I know, this “website” looks extremely terrible, but you know, it is the demand of a client.

Thanks in advance!

Hey, batulkr.

Tira here to help.

Is your client thinking of building a one product store?

I ask because if you’re using a free theme from Shopify, you can add a featured product right on the homepage of your store. A feature product allows your customer to add a product to their cart or buy the product right from the homepage. Here’s what this looks like from my test store:

The product title, size and quantity will show with a link to the full details of the product, which will take the customer to the product page if they wish to know more about the product. I noticed the table you have in your screenshot has a lot of details on it, is there a reason your client wants to have that displayed?

What theme is your client using? To find the name of a theme, you can login to your Shopify Admin, click on “Online Store > Themes” and on the right-side of the page, you will find the name of your theme. I would love to provide you with a step-by-step walkthrough of how to set this up on the store.

Talk soon,

Hello, thanks for your reply!

I have generated this “new theme” through shopify theme kit. So I use the emptiest theme to make the store look primitive.

They want that table to be displayed on the home page, and a buy now button and the total price($560) below that the table. The button should go to checkout page.

Hope this explanation is clear.

Thanks.

Copy the code from the product template, put it on the home page. Then all you need to do is assign the product, which you can do like this:

{% assign product = all_products["your-product-handle"] %}
