Add content to shop page with Pro/Cornerstone

Hi guys,

We’re sifting through all our pages to remove the last reference to Visual Composer before we completely remove it.

We had a small banner displayed above our shop product list. This banner was handled directly with the Visual Composer back-end editor. I wanted to replace that bit of code with a Pro section instead, but I can’t really do it directly because Pro isn’t enabled on the shop page.

I was wondering, wouldn’t Pro be able to do the same as VC? That is, couldn’t we have custom content added before the main shop loop using Pro front-end composer?

I’ll probably end up creating the banner on a temporary page, grab the HTML and add it to our child-theme woocommerce.php file. However, I really liked the simplicity of managing this content directly via the editor instead of via code. Our custom woocommerce.php file retrieves the page content before running the main loop.

Hope you can consider this for future releases :wink:

Hello @thisisbbc,

Thanks for asking. :slight_smile:

As of now you can’t edit Shop Index page using Pro Theme content builder. However the good new is that we are working to bring in that feature to the content builder that will enable users to design custom shop page layouts. If you would like to take a look at what we intent to bring in 2019, please take a look at following post. You can scroll to 2019 Sneak Peek section for our 2019 development roadmap:

For new product announcements, I suggest you to please keep an eye on changelog page:

Have a great day ahead.
