Making Homepage have More Products - Instead of just having 50 products on Dawn, editing it to 100

Technical Q&A
1

Hi,

I’m building a website and the main part of my website I want to focus on is my homepage.

I’d like to know if its possible to be able to have a featured collection on my homepage and have at least 100 products being posted on my homepage instead of the limit amount that shopify allows which is about 50.

Is it possible without buying any themes?

Thanks.

Hi @SamSadik118

I did that on one website before and this is fairy possible but after doing some code tricks. Check here https://egas.com.au/ . You can find View More under New Arrivals.
So, depending on your theme it may be different to alter the code.

Hi, what are the steps to doing so?

I will add the code here. You’ll just need to create a new section template to paste this code.

These are the types of modifications that can strangle an online business.

Do not blindly do changes like on the homepage without proper a/b testing and watching conversions and bounce rates.

By doing this you can literally be doubling the page size, increasing render time, reducing overall page performance, and increasing your users bandwidth usage all in one go.

Your doubling the elements the images and for some themes that javascript, app widgets, etc.

There is a reason there are sane defaults like 50 product per collection pagination.

At minimum make sure the theme is lazyloading below the fold images.

Saner alternatives,

Implement a CtA for infinite scrolling so customers can choose their experience impact.

Or simply use a view more link to fully paginated collection pages(a/b test linking to 2nd page not first).

Hi there - was the code added here? I’m trying to implement this for my store as well.
