New cart options, product variant flexibility and speed improvements. Oh my!

If you are interested in trying out new features early in our beta program, fill out this form, and we will be in touch!

Direct to checkout for your "Add to Cart" button

We have added more functionality to our "Add to Cart" element. You will see a third option that will automatically reload the customer's page directly in the checkout flow to allow you to add "Quick Buy" functionality to your pages.

Sold out Product Variant flexibility

We have added a control within the Product Variant element to change the behavior if a variant is sold out. The options are "Hidden", "Shown but not selectable" and "Shown and selectable". This will help you better control the customer experience.

Slider improvements

Our slider element has gone through a tune up with 28 slide transitions and the ability to customize the color of the arrow.  

Column element alignment improvement

We fixed a bug where adding a column element with 5 columns would result in uneven widths by default. Now when you drag in a column element, all widths will be equal. In addition to that, you can now reset column widths using the new "Reset column width" button.

Speed improvements to Product Gallery element

We have changed how images are loaded within the Product Gallery element. This will make your pages load faster and improve their web performance score. 

Other improvements

  • Minor usability and accessibility improvements. 
  • Global snippet bug fixes around syncing global snippet and duplicating pages with global snippets.

Introducing Global Snippets & an updated Layout Panel!

🚀 What's New

Global Snippets

  • You can now take any snippet and deploy it across multiple pages, streamlining your workflows and ensuring that every corner of your store is up to date. Global Snippets are available as a Public Beta on the Page Builder Advanced Plan.

Check out the demo below and learn more in our Help Center.


📈 Improvements

Layout Panel

  • We’ve updated the Layout Panel to make it easier to navigate. It is now located on the left hand side of the editor for quick access.

You can even collapse your elements for a cleaner view!

🎉 Happy New Year!

Welcome to a brand new year and with it, all the opportunities for more sales, better workflows, faster sites and increased profits. As we hit the ground running, we want to highlight a few of the biggest feature updates to Shogun Page Builder to keep in your back pocket as you bring your 2023 plans to life.


Page Builder Advanced

We see you scaling brands opening new storefronts, hiring new team members or expanding to new regions and Page Builder Advanced is here to help! This plan gives you our usual drag-and-drop experience plus content copying/cloning across 2 or more stores, 10+ users (with user permissions), consolidated billing, and hundreds of extra pages to publish!


Page Builder Sections for Shopify

Using Page Builder Sections for Shopify, you can create custom content sections to deploy in your Shopify 2.0 Theme, just like any other native theme section. You can add these styled sections to your Shopify Templates to control content across pages.


Page Builder for Shopify Hydrogen

You can now harness the drag-and-drop page creation you love from Shogun Page Builder and pair it with Shopify Hydrogen! Seamlessly integrate Shogun Page Builder with your Shopify Hydrogen tech stack by adding a single tag and your team can quickly build pages for your Hydrogen-powered store with Shogun’s page building elements!  


Saved Snippets Updates

Snippets are one of the most loved features in Page Builder and we added enhancements this year to make them even more powerful, including:

  • Favorite any of your snippets
  • Sort your snippets alphabetically or by creation date
  • See a visual preview of your saved snippets to make them easier to identify

Coming Soon in 2023:

Global Snippets! Global Snippets is an upgrade of our current Snippets feature. You can now have your Snippets be Global Snippets so if you update a snippet it will be updated on all the pages that use that Global Snippet. No more manually updating your snippets across multiple pages. Feel confident with the peace of mind that every corner of your store is up to date with your latest changes!

We have plenty more updates and exciting things in store for Page Builder this year so stay tuned! And in the meantime, if you have questions or need help, we’re just an email away.

Cheers to 2023!

📩 Send Form Submissions To Klaviyo...Like Magic!

We're excited to announce a brand new integration with Klaviyo!

Now you can leverage Shogun Page Builder - Form Elements and send form submission data automatically into a specific Klaviyo list.

How it works

  1. Add your Klaviyo API key to Page Builder settings.
  2. Choose Klaviyo (instead of email) as the destination of your form submissions.
  3. Select the Klaviyo list you want to send data too (from a pre-populated list) :)

Note: In order to send form submission data to Klaviyo, your Form Box must contain a Form Text Input element (with type "email" selected).
