Product's Shop Page

Add text, images, and video to show on a product's page in the ToolSpring shop.

Product's Shop Page

The ToolSpring shop has a dedicated page for every product, where customers can browse its details. As a product owner you may provide content for the Overview tab on this page, for customers to learn about your product. Supported content includes text, images, and video.

After you create a product, you should see it listed on your Dashboard Homepage or Products page. You can access the Products page via Products on the user menu. Click on the product (or click View Settings) to open the Product Settings page.

You can add content using the following items on the publisher dashboard navigation menu:

General Settings

General Settings is the default view on the Product Settings page. Below is a sample, in edit mode:

General Settings, edit mode

You may add or edit the settings listed below:

  • Title: A short name for the product, from 3-50 characters.
  • Description: One or more paragraphs of descriptive text. The level of detail should be appropriate for the product.
  • Logo: Your custom product logo. ToolSpring sets a default logo as shown in the sample. You can set a custom logo - drag an image file onto the placeholder rectangle to the right of the logo; alternately, click on the placeholder to open a file selector dialog.
  • Tags: A tag is a keyword that may be used on the Shop Search page, where customers specify criteria including tags to filter for products.
    • Enter text of 3 or more characters, e.g. jenkins, to see "Add jenkins" pop up below the text you entered; click the popup to confirm.
    • You may add up to five tags that apply to your product, e.g. agent, cli, docker, aws, azure.

Click Save Changes to view your updated settings.

    • Description: Enter text that describes the contents of the video.

Clicking on Save Changes will switch to view mode, where images appear as thumbnails and video appears in a compact embedded format. The product's shop page shows images in a slider, for convenient scrolling left or right through the images.

Additional Information

This option is useful when you want to include a gallery of content, to elaborate on the general description, or to promote features of your product. You may add up to nine sections, where each section contains descriptive text and, optionally, an image.

Below is a sample of Additional Information, in edit mode:

Additional Information, edit mode

Use the placeholder rectangle with the upload icon in the same way as described above. The file selector dialog here can select only one file.

Enter a section title and description into the text boxes to the right of the placeholder.

For each image here, the product's shop page gallery shows the section title below the image, then the description.

To delete a section, delete its image and all text in its title and description.

Viewing the Product's Shop Page

A product's shop page is private until the product is published.

While a product is private, only its owner can view the general and preview parts of its shop page. When the product is published, customers will be able to view both parts of its shop page.
