  • {product:product_id}: Product ID
  • {product:product_title}: Product Title
  • {product:product_price}: Product Price
  • {product:product_sku}: Product SKU
  • {product:product_description}: Product Description
  • {product:product_short_description}: Product Short Description
  • {product:product_categories}: Product Categories
  • {product:product_tags}: Product Tags
  • {product:product_url}: Product URL

Example and Use Cases

Suppose you want to display basic product information on a product detail page. You can add the following template tags to your content block:

<h2>{product:product_title}</h2>
<p>{product:product_description}</p>
<p>Price: {product:product_price}</p>

Output:

  • Product Title: The title of the product.
  • Product Description: The full description of the product.
  • Price: The current price of the product.
