We provide customers Multi Brand with Header Ecommerce used by big brands, bringing high aesthetics and logic. You can check this demo (pass: 4) to know how E-commerce header works.

The Header Ecommerce is a professional header and also requires more customization than other headers. However, you do not need to worry about this problem, we will guide you in detail so that you can create it.

In this guide, if you have 3 brand pages: WOMEN, MEN and KIDS. The WOMEN brand is homepage by default. Let's stick on the steps to build it:

First, you add the section "Header Ecommerce" in "Header Group", and hide or remove another Header section.

1.2. Create pages

Go to Online Store > Pages > create the new pages and assign them to the corresponding template:

1.3. Customize pages

Go to Theme customize > Pages > choose "Men", "Kids" pages to edit.

In Header Ecommerce, you need to follow the structure:

  • Level 1: Brand pages (Women, Men, Kids)

  • Level 2: Menus for each brand

  • Level 3: [is_heading] and Linklist items

  • Next, you connect Level 1 items with the corresponding pages. Follow this video:

  • Similarly, you add the sub-menus (Level 2, Level 3) for Men and Kids. This is an example:

2.3. Level 2 menu

  • By default, Level 2 shows a link or dropdown (if the Level 2 has submenu - Level 3). Check this document to know more.

  • To show a megamenu for Level 2, you add "Mega menu block" and connect it with the key: "Level 1 - Level 2". There are 4 types of Mega menu blocks, you check this document.

Example: Women - Shop. Follow this video:

Result: Different menus on brand pages

  1. Name => Single line text

  2. Url => Page

3.2. Add entries

Note: No need to create an entry for WOMEN (default homepage).

Go to Content > MetaObject > open "Brand" > Add entry. Please follow this video:

4. Reference elements for specific Brand Page

This step connects "page, logo, search, cart" you created in step 3 to the live page.

This feature will work as follows: if you add references to products, collections, page, blogs, or blog posts on a specific Brand Page, when you click on them, this component will remain on that page.

Reference elements included:

  • Pages => for Logo: different logo and mobile logo for each brand page.

  • Products => for search, cart suggest products.

If you don't add a reference to it, it will default to the Brand Page Default (Home page).

You will connect for Product, Collection, Page, Blogs or Blog posts similar the example below.

For example: You want to add Metafield for Pages.

Step 1: Create Metafield (Pages)

Go to Settings > Custom data > Pages > Add definition

  • Name: Brand

  • Key: theme.brand

  • Content type: Metaobject

  • Reference: Brand

Please follow video below:

Step 2: Select Entry for Pages

Result: The logo, search suggestion, cart suggestion change when you select different brand pages. Check this video:

Note: If your collections connect with Brand page; you can ignore products of collections. It assigns automically for products"

"The priority level is from inside out: if you have created a metafield and selected an Entry for the Brand page within a product, the product will receive the value of Products and not receive Collections. Similarly, it will prioritize Blog Posts first, then Blogs.

Similar, you will do it with Products, Collections, Blogs, etc...
