Overview

The Spotlights menu holds groups of hand-picked products, such as an Eid collection. Each spotlight has a few chosen products and can have an optional start and end time. In the Theme Builder, a Spotlight block places one of these spotlights on a page. The landing page editor offers the same block.

Only Owners and Managers can open this page. Staff are sent back to the dashboard. If the Spotlights item in the menu has a padlock beside it, your package does not include the feature.

Package: spotlights are included on Growth only. On other packages the page opens, but saving a new spotlight or a change shows a message that your plan does not include this, with a pointer to Subscription.
