Creating a new Product

This guide will cover the creation of a new product in the administration dashboard for this website.

Table of Content

Requirements

Before creating a product, you should make sure you have all of the following assets and information:

1.

Product thumbnail and other images (300x300)
The main product thumbnail (shot of the rice package) should be a square image with transparent background. 300x300 is recommended size for best visual results.

2.

Product banner (hero image) (1920x480)
Like on most pages of the website, there is a banner at the top of the page. The hero can be removed, can be an image, or it can be a slider. In the case of an image or a slider, you'll want to try to keep the images to a size of 1920x480 (or any size with the same aspect ratio).

3.

Product description
The product description is seperated into 3 pieces of information:

  1. The name of the product (aka: the title);

  2. A one-liner that best describes the product;

  3. A small paragraph that dwells a bit deeper in details;

  4. The different package sizes available of the product

  5. The cooking time
