Tips
- Type the Card heading, Fiber, Weight and Care yourself. The card is the same wherever the section is shown, so write text that fits the whole page, for example a general fabric story for a collection.
- The Macro layout shows a full-width image band and a garment-label strip instead of the card. It also adds a short caption and a link under the image band (see Image caption, Image link label and Image link). The image needs to be set for the caption and link to show.
- The section is not in the default product page. You can add it to the product page, where it appears below the product details, but the text is the same on every product that uses the template.
