Product template
Theme retirement | Context is no longer available on the Shopify theme store. Theme support and updates for current users will end after May 18, 2024. Learn more here.
Product templates control the content, layout, and style of your product pages. In the theme editor, you can customize the product media, product overview, and overall page design with Context's theme settings and sections.
This guide provides an overview of product page templates and features, with links to tutorials for product page styles, blocks, and sections.
Shopify | Creating and managing products is a Shopify feature. Themes provide templates to style your product pages created in your Shopify admin. See Shopify's Products manual to learn more.
