Arrange Your Home Page in Storefront Studio

Arrange the home page blocks Storix really has, then publish from a draft.

Growth

Your home page is not one fixed design. It is a stack of sections you arrange yourself, and the order decides whether a buyer reaches a real product in two swipes or gives up.

You do it in Storefront Studio: Design → Themes, then Open Storefront Studio. Nothing is public until you press Publish, so you can experiment safely.

The sections you actually have

Every Storix theme ships with the same blocks, under the names you see in the studio:

  • Photo slides — the top block that says what you sell. One strong slide beats five that say nothing.
  • Product grid — real items with EGP prices, so a ready buyer taps straight through.
  • Trending — a rail of your most-viewed products (up to 4 per page).
  • Categories — quick entries for shoppers who roughly know what they want.
  • Announcement — a short strip for a live campaign: Ramadan, Eid, White Friday.
  • Trust and Partners — delivery, returns and payment reassurance, plus the brands you carry.
  • WhatsApp — a one-tap chat button that rescues the shopper who wants to ask before paying.
  • Bundle offers — shows your product bundles; bundle management is coming soon, so this block stays empty for now.

Two blocks people ask for do not exist: no customer-testimonials section, no newsletter block. Storix has no email sign-up form: Marketing → Offers → Storefront popups, on Growth and Pro, can announce an offer and link to a page, but a popup does not collect emails.

Order the sections so products are never buried

A buyer arriving from an Instagram ad wants something to buy, and every block in the way is another swipe on a mid-range phone.

A reliable order for a new store: Photo slides with one message, then Product grid so a buyable item appears at once, then Categories, then Announcement only while a campaign is live, then Trust and WhatsApp near the end.

Now run the two-swipe test. On a real phone, count the swipes before you can tap a product with a visible EGP price. More than two means a section is in the wrong place.

Edit safely: draft, preview, publish

  • The badge at the top shows Unsaved edits, Draft saved or Live, so you know what shoppers see.
  • Drag a section by its handle to reorder. Use Add section, Duplicate, or the × to delete.
  • Switch between Desktop and Mobile, and check mobile every time.
  • Press Save draft while you work; customers never see a draft.
  • Press Publish when it is right. Storix clears the cache and shows "Published to customers."
  • Made a mess? Revert to saved drops your unsaved edits.

When you need to undo a bad week

Open Advanced and use Publish history. It keeps the last 20 versions — Published, Preset applied and Saved. Press Rollback on the one you liked and confirm.

Two warnings. Rollback replaces the live storefront at once and removes any saved draft. Applying a theme preset does the same — treat presets as a fresh start, not a preview.

Limits you may meet

  • Each section type has a maximum. At the limit you see "Maximum number of this section type reached." Remove one or edit the one you have.
  • The platform can switch the page builder off. Then Home shows Locked, and Add section and Duplicate disappear. You can still reorder what the template gives you.
  • A paid theme must be bought before you can save a draft or publish, on Design → Themes.
  • On the Starter plan, the footer's branding line stays locked.

The Announcement strip is meant to come and go. Add it when the Ramadan or White Friday campaign starts, and remove it the day it ends — nothing looks more neglected than a Ramadan strip still there in June.

Drag your sections into order, preview on mobile, and publish only when it looks right. Every Storix store includes Storefront Studio. Build yours free.
