About Content Layouts

Content layouts are used to customize the content and design for pages for your store, including checkout and product or category detail pages. When you create or edit a content layout you can define what elements you want that page to have. To learn how to create and edit a content layout, see Creating and Editing Content Layouts.

Note: Content layouts is only available if your store is using the Self Service (Rivulet) template. To find out what template your store uses, contact your Store Operations team.

Content Layouts and Splash Markup Language

When you create or edit a content layout you use the Splash Markup Language to define what you want the page to have and how you want the page to look. Before you create or edit a content layout, you should be familiar with the Splash Markup Language that is used to construct the content layout pages. See the About Splash  for more information about Splash.

Content Layouts You Can Create

There are several different pages you can customize by creating a content layout for that page and then using a theme to apply that content layout to your store. This includes the checkout pages used for one of the three types of checkout flows your store can support, and some other pages that provide product or marketing offer information.

Checkout Pages You Can Customize

Checkout Pages are those pages seen by the shopper when they are completing a purchase and working their way through the checkout process. Each checkout flow uses different pages, depending on the flow.

Note: Before you edit the pages in a checkout flow we recommend you verify that the checkout flow is enabled for your store and can be used on your store. To learn more about what checkout flow is used on your store, contact your Store Operations team.

Depending on your store, you may use the QuickBuy checkout, the Three Page checkout, or the Two Page checkout.

Shopping Pages You Can Customize

The Shopping Pages are pages that can appear to shoppers when they view information about products or pages used by marketing offers.

Using Content Layouts

After you have created a content layout, you can apply that content layout to pages on your store using a theme. See Using Themes to Apply Content Layouts to Pages.
