Shop landing page
To create eCommerce flow, we have utilized NationBuilder’s calendar/event functionality. So here for the shop landing page, you need to create the Calendar page. Follow the steps below:
- Go to + New page in the main menu of your site. Give it a name as you need but we recommend using the “Shop” name. Change the Status to “Published” and choose “Calendar” for the Type of page.
- Make this landing page a homepage (Optional). Go to the page settings and mark the “Make this the home page” option. This will make this page to be the one that shows when a person lands on your site. Remember to first uncheck all the buttons and check only the “Make this the home page” and “Include in top nav”.
- Add the page tag: sfac
This tag will distinguish your shopping landing page from the calendar page event page.

Categories
You can categorize your products with the categories. We have utilized NationBuilder’s tag system for the categories.
To link your product to a specific category, you have to give ‘shop‘ prefix in front of your category name. i.e: To link your product to the “Bags & Purse” category, you should give a tag like “shop Bags & Purse“. So it will link this product to Bags & Purse category as well as it will create a “Bags & Purse” category if it doesn’t exist.
Category thumbnail image

To add a category thumbnail image, please go to the main Shop landing page and there go to “Files” tab and upload the thumbnail image with the name “category_slug_name”.

i.e: For the Bags & Purse category the slug should be shop_bags_purse. So the image name is “shop_bags_purse”
NOTE: To get the slug of the respected category name, you should go to Pages -> select Tags from the dropdown as per the snap below

You will get a list of all the tags added for all the pages. There you can find the specific tag you have given to the products. There you can see the slug of your tag.
