Default/main product template
*Important when updating to Whisk 8.0.0 from version 7.0.1 or earlier
There is a breaking change on both product templates that should be addressed before the theme update is pushed live. For this default product template, make sure to add in the blocks titled "Variant selector" and "Buy Buttons". These used to be hard-coded into this product template, but we have added them as blocks to allow for more flexible layouts. For detailed instructions and information, watch this video:
As of Whisk 6.1.0, the theme also comes with an alternate product template called "Two columns". You can find that documentation here: https://support.coquelicot.io/article/86-two-column-product-template
The main product section is one of the most unique sections to the Whisk theme. On large desktop screens, the layout is 3 columns, then it collapses to 2 columns on smaller screens, and is only 1 column on mobile. In order to make this work seamlessly and keep the content in a good order for shoppers, the blocks on this section work a little differently than elsewhere. Let's start with going over the blocks in this section.
Blocks
Variant selector
This block will display the variant selectors for the product. All options for how this displays are set in Theme Settings/Products and you can find the documentation for that here.
Product form
Displays the "Add to cart" button and quantity selector for the product.
Show dynamic checkout buttons
Check this box to show any dynamic checkout options that you have configured for Payments. If you decide not to show them here, know that they will still be available options during checkout.
Product title
Text size
Select the size of the text for the title.
Description
This is the product description that is entered for each product in the Shopify admin. There are no customizable settings for this block.
Text size
Select the size of the text for the title.
Share
You can choose which social media share buttons you want to show by checking the box next to that platform option. The options are:
- Twitter or X (you can choose which icon to display)
There is also a button to copy the page url link to the computer's clipboard. This button will always display if this block is selected.
Price
Displays the product price. This price will automatically update when different variants with different prices are selected, and will show an original price crossed out next to the current selling price if the product is on sale. If your store in configured to have taxes included in the price of items, then a note will display here that reads, "Tax included." If you have a Shipping policy filled out for your store in the Shopify admin, a message will also show underneath the price that says "Shipping calculated at checkout" and it will be a link to your full Shipping policy. Example:
Show shop pay installment terms
You can choose to show Shop pay installment terms underneath the price if Shop pay is enabled for your store and by checking this box.
Vendor
No customizable settings here. It will just display the product vendor name.
Product subtitle
Displays the product subtitle for the product. For more information, see the documentation for Product subtitle.
Text size
Select the size of the text for the title.
Custom liquid
Add your own Liquid or HTML code here. See the Custom liquid documentation for more details.
Divider
This block adds a visual divider line with space above and below it. This is useful if you want help differentiating many blocks of content. Make sure your divider line looks good on all screen sizes as the layout shifts from 3, to 2, to 1 column.
Divider size
(Whisk 6.1.0 and above)
Choose between a thin or a thick line.
Details tab
Details tabs are the place to add custom content for your products, like ingredients, nutrition facts, sizing information, etc. They support images, text, and even page content. They can do so much, they deserved their own documentation. Learn more about how to configure Details tabs.
Details tabs will always show after every other block in this section, even if they are organized in the Shopify theme editor to be above them. This is intentional in order to keep the product form and shopping buttons higher up on the page on smaller screens when the layout is 1 or 2 columns. The detail tabs themselves will display in the order they are in the theme editor.
Apps
You can add apps through this block. On the Whisk demo stores, we use this to show the star ratings for Shopify's Product Reviews app.
