Template Editor
The Template Editor interface in the admin can be customized for each template via the editor.json file in the template folder.
The customizations you can apply to the Template Editor are:
- Choose which sections to show and in what order. For example, you could hide the HTML and CSS section.
- Give descriptive names to banner sections present in the template.
- Give descriptive names to menus present in the template.
- Define the custom variables that can be used in the template.
The editor.json file has the following structure:
{
"sections": [
{
"name": "logo-and-notes"
},
{
"name": "filters"
},
{
"name": "menus",
"menus": [
{
"menu": 3,
"label": {
"en": "Main menu",
"it": "Menù principale"
}
},
…
]
},
{
"name": "banners",
"locations": [
{
"location": 5,
"label": {
"en": "Home page slide",
"it": "Slide sulla home page"
}
},
…
]
},
{
"name": "html-and-css"
},
{
"name": "colors"
},
{
"name": "translations"
},
{
"name": "variables",
"label": {
"en": "Settings",
"it": "Impostazioni"
},
"variables": [
{
"name" : "showPromotions",
"type" : "checkbox",
"label" : {
"en" : "Display promotions on the home page",
"it" : "Mostra le promozioni sulla home page"
},
"default" : true
},
…

}
