<p>Please {{ 'create a link list' | link_to: '/admin/links' }} that contains links to all the collections you wish to feature on this page. The title of that link list must be <strong>Featured Collections</strong>. If you want your collections to be listed alphabetically, reorder them alphabetically on your {{ 'Navigation page' | link_to: '/admin/links' }}.</p>{% endif %} | |
</div><!-- end of #collection-listing --> |
I've pasted the code in, created the link list and added it to the navigation. However, when I click on Featured collections on the navigation bar on my store, it brings me to /collections and shows all my collections in alphabetical order (basically the default). What am I missing here?
Also, isn't there a way to name the collection other than "Featured collections"? And can this functionality be applied to several collections? The goal here being to create a Shoes collection and a Pants collection for instance.
Thanks in advance.
Am I correct in thinking there's no way to paginate the out put of the link list method?
thanks
Thanks
