Store Tags
When editing your store’s custom html you are given the option to add tags into your code to make your store more dynamic. Listed below are all the possible tags you may use. If any link is not used on a specific page it will be removed so your customers will never see the tags.
- Tag: This is the actual tag to place in your code.
- Num Uses: This is the number of times you can use this tag. For most tags we only suggest the number of times to use it which means you can use that tag an unlimited amount of times. For a select few there is a required number of times you must use the tag.
- Use In: This is the only template file which will recognize this tag.
- Suggested File: This is the template file we suggest you use this tag in although you may choose a different file.
- Description: This is the general description of what this tag does.
*Although we do suggest that you use every tag at least once you are only required to use the ##content## and ##products## tags.

Menu Tags
Tag: ##menu##
Num Uses: Suggest: 1

Description: This will display a menu of your sections. You can specify whether you would like to show only one level of sections or all of your sections by going to Display Options in your Store Settings.
Tag: ##menuwrapper##
Num Uses: Require: 0 or 2
Use In: Base Template
Description: Put this tag around your menu. If your menu code looks like:
Menu:
##menu##
Put the wrapper tag around the entire chunk of code:
##menuwrapper##
Menu:
##menu##
##menuwrapper##
This will remove the whole block of code between the wrapper tags if you don’t have any sections. Also, if you select ‘Don’t Show Menu’ in the Display options the block of code between the wrapper tags will be removed. Make sure if you use this tag to put TWO ##menuwrapper## tags, no more, no less!
Tag: ##pricingmenu##
Num Uses: Suggest: 1

Tag: ##pricingmenuwrapper##
Num Uses: Require: 0 or 2

Description: Put this tag around your pricing menu. If your pricing menu code looks like:
Shop by price:
##pricingmenu##
Put the wrapper tag around the entire chunk of code:
##pricingmenuwrapper##
Shop by price:

##pricingmenuwrapper##
This will remove the whole block of code between the wrapper tags if a pricing menu cannot be generated. This usually happens if a section doesn’t have any products or there isn’t a wide enough range of pricing to warrant a price constraint. Also, if you choose not to show the pricing menu on the Display Options page the block of code between the wrapper tags will be removed. Make sure if you use this tag to put TWO ##pricingmenuwrapper## tags, no more, no less!
