The following is a list of information and content that will be needed to complete your reCommerce website.
On your 'Home' page, you will have a Welcome Message box that can be used for information about your store, philosophy or your business.
*This can be disabled if you choose*
Please provide any text you wish to include on the welcome page to your assigned project manager. (This content is required prior to your website being launched and made available to the public.)
Theme Selection: There are several 'color themes' to choose from. We can use the colors in your logo or something that compliments it. If your colors are not available, please ask your assigned project manager about obtaining new custom colors.
Click here and view the available theme color palette
Please note: that you will see a little black icon with a paint brush - that's the 'theme previewer'. Select from the available colors, refresh the page, and and view your color choice.
This can be disabled prior to your website launching.
Typically a PNG format 300px wide by 100px high. (This is just a guide) Invoice Logo: Only if this different from your main logo. **Note** - the invoice logo is always 'smaller' than your main logo. If you have a very detailed/complicated main logo, your invoice logo may not translate.
This is the amount of 'columns' you will see on each of the pages: Home Page, Product Detail Pages, Products Page, Informational (Static) Pages and your Cart Page.
There are three layout variations that involve splitting the pages into one, two or three sections. The common layouts include one column without a sidebar menu on either side or two column sections that include a main body container and one sidebar menu on either the left or right side of the page. You may also select to have two sidebar menus and body container for a total of three column sections. Examples follow.
These images can be added to the homepage 'slide show'. You can choose up to 5 images with our starter package. There is no limit with how many you can have on custom sites.
Each of the 5 images can have 'caption text' by adding a Title and a Subtitle to it. In addition you can add a 'hyperlink' that will take you to another page.

This infomation should be obtained from your current email host/provider.
If you have social media pages for your store/business that you wish to include on your site, please provide us the complete URL link to each social media page. Our team will apply the links to each social media icon brand you wish to include on your site.
URL address required if available:
This is your main 'navigation' menu that generally appears at the header of the page. You can choose to show links for all parent categories, static content pages and help pages.
It is always best practice to map out your website before design and development. One simple approach is to use sticky post-it notes, label each one after a page title or page name you know will have some type of content. Place the post-it notes on a flat surface and begin to move them around to get a feel for how your website will appear to the average consumer. Determine which pages contain the most valuable information. Then select a link title that will direct your visitors to that page from the main navigation menu.
These links reside in the footer or (bottom of the page). These links can point to any internal or external webpages related to your website. You may choose to have these links open within your website or as a new tab or window within your search browser.
Common uses include, but not limited to help links, FAQ, About Us, Meet the staff, Consignor Login, Privacy and Terms and complete contact us page included with a complete Google maps location plugin.
If you have purchased and own your current primary domain name, we will either need your Login Credentials for your domain registrar or our staff can assist you with obtaining the required information from your Domain Host.
