Related Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if my Nexter Extension is not activated?

If your Nexter Extension is not activated, you won't be able to create a custom single product template. Ensure that the Nexter Extension plugin is installed and activated in your WordPress dashboard. This plugin is essential for accessing the Theme Builder feature, which allows you to design your product pages without coding.

Are there any limitations when using the Nexter Theme Builder for product templates?

One limitation is that NexterWP does not work as a standalone theme without Gutenberg. You must have the Gutenberg editor installed to use the Nexter Theme Builder effectively. Additionally, while you can create multiple templates, each template's display conditions must be carefully set to avoid conflicts or unintended exclusions.

What are the best practices for setting display conditions in my product template?

When setting display conditions, consider using multiple conditions to include your template in specific locations while excluding it from others. This approach allows for greater flexibility and customization. For example, you can target all products while excluding certain categories or tags, ensuring that your template is shown only where it makes sense.
