This guide describes Dossier 0.x. Your store has Dossier , so some settings may be different or missing.
Featured product
Featured product shows one product with its photo and a working purchase form: customers choose a size or color, set the quantity and add it to the cart without leaving the page. Use it on the home page for a hero piece, a new release or a best seller. You can add it to any page.
Choose the product
Section titled “Choose the product”Pick the product in Product. Its photo is the product’s featured image, and it links to the product page; a “View full details” link below the form leads there too.
Until you choose a product, the section is hidden in your store. In the theme editor it shows a sample photo, sample text and a notice, so you can arrange the blocks first.
Arrange the purchase form
Section titled “Arrange the purchase form”The form next to the photo is built from blocks, the same ones used in the Product information section of the product page: Title, Price, Variant picker, Quantity selector, Buy buttons, Description and Text. Drag them into the order you want and remove the ones you don’t need. Their settings work the same way as on the product page.
- Use each block only once. Title and Buy buttons in particular must not be repeated.
- Keep the Title block: it also names the section for screen readers.
- Buy buttons holds the add to cart button and, if you leave Show accelerated checkout buttons on, the express payment buttons such as Shop Pay, PayPal or Apple Pay. Customers see only the methods available to them.
- The Text block is for a short line such as “Free returns within 30 days”. Connect it to a product metafield to show different text for each product.
- You can also add blocks from apps you have installed, such as reviews or size advisors.
Show vendor adds the brand above the product name in the Title block.
Variants and checkout
Section titled “Variants and checkout”Customers pick variants with buttons, color swatches or dropdowns, as set in the Variant picker block; the price, availability and the add to cart button update as they choose. Variants that are sold out or don’t exist in that combination are crossed out. Swatches come from options connected to a color metaobject in your Shopify admin.
If the browser has JavaScript turned off, the form still works: customers choose the variant from a menu and the product is added to the cart.
Place the photo
Section titled “Place the photo”Media position on desktop puts the photo on the left or on the right of the form on tablets and computers. On phones the photo always sits above the form. In right-to-left languages, such as Arabic and Hebrew, left and right swap automatically. Use full page width lets the section run to the edges of the window instead of the page’s usual width.
Show it only between two dates
Section titled “Show it only between two dates”Turn on Schedule visibility and set a start, an end, or both. This is useful for a product launch or a limited drop. See Scheduling.
