E-commerce Detail Page Question

Permalink
Does anyone know how to create a product detail page after a product has been created?
I skipped the "add detail page" option for a bunch of products and I'm wondering if there's a way to create the detail page once the product is already created.

Main reason being that I'm trying to create a page with a product list and it seems rather difficult to do without detail pages under a particular page.

Thanks!!

You actually skipped "create a product page" when setting up the products.

You have a couple of options.

The first would be to manually set up the pages by adding them through the site map.

Here are the steps for setting up one of your products

1) Visit your sitemap

2) Click on the parent page you would like this product page to live under and from the pop up select "add page"

3) Select the "product detail" page type.

4) Name the page the name of the product you are setting up and click "add page"

5) Visit your products page in the concrete5 dashboard

6) Click on the name of the product that you just added this page for

7) Click edit properties

8) Under the description area where it says "product page" click "select page" and select the page you just added. This will automatically set up the product on that page.


The second option is to duplicate the product.

1) Visit your products page in the concrete5 dashboard

2) Click on the product name you want to set up the product page for.

3) Click "Duplicate"

4) When the sitemap pops up select the parent page you would like the product to live under. Click "okay" and the product page will be created.

5) Next delete the original product that had no product page.

6) Last edit the "properties" for the page to remove the word "copy" from both the "name" of the page located under the "standard properties" tab and the "Canonical URL" which is located under the "Page Paths and Location" tab also under "properties".
