In my bigcommerce shop template layout file for all categories changed to default: category_with_facets.html
If there is any way to change template layout file to all categories to category.html, without editing each category manually?
You can run a script against the API to update layout_file which is apart of the category object. You'll just need to iterate through the category IDs.

I am trying to customise my debut theme and am a bit stuck.
I am trying to create an alternate template for the template that shows all my products.
I am able to create an alternate collections.liquid and it also shows up in the admin an it all works fine. But my confusion is, this seems to be the same template for rendering the all my products (not just the products from that collection) too, but how/where select the alternate template for that in the admin?
In other words I am attempting to change the template for collections/all
By default the collections/all uses the collection.liquid file.
As you said you can create a new template collection.custom.liquid that you can use.
The interesting part is that there is no actual collection/all page in the admin. This is the default page that ALL shopify shops have (similar to the homepage/404/cart page). So you don't have access to it from the admin panel by default.
In order to change the ALL collection page you need to create it yourself. Go to your collections admin page and create a new collection with the handle all and this will overwrite the default all collection and you will be able to choose a different template for it.
TLDR; create a new "all" collection in the admin panel and choose the custom template for it.
you have check here collection type grid or list which is enabled from the theme option
collection-template.liquid file that show collection/all item list
if want to change the alternative template goto the template directory. page.collection_list.liquid
I purchased a new template from themeforest and have a issue.
I added some new categories and in the theme left side bar, the categories name are still the default ones.
I've checked the root category and it is one of my existing categories, anyone can suggest a solution here?

Have you checked your Smarty cache configuration in the PrestaShop Admin Panel? Try to empty the cache and make sure templates are recompiled properly after any changes.
The module displaying categories in the left column is the blockcategories module and it has a Smarty cache mechanism.
I need to generate a URL link on each product page. Each URL needs to contain custom variables specific to that product.
Like so : www.example.com/{{keywords}}/{{productID}}
My understanding is that any custom variables must be saved as metaTags.
My logic to generate the URL is as follows
Create an Embedded App.
Display a dropdown list containing all products.
Display input fields for the user to populate with the text for "keywords" and "productID"
Save this information as Meta Tags so it can be accessible within the Liquid templeting.

How do I solve the following issues?
How do i save "keywords" and "productID" variables for each individual product.
How do I generate a URL with these variables and populate them on each product page?(I can do it manually through editing the theme but there has to be a way to do this programmatically)
You cannot generate an URL like:
www.example.com/{{keywords}}/{{productID}}
With Shopify you instead use
www.example.com/products/product-handle
And on that product page, you can do as you please with the product ID, and any metafields you choose to maintain and create.
I am running VirtoCommerce 2.4.644. I have a small collection of products and they are not placed in category folders in my catalog. How do I edit the default theme to just show all the most recent items on the home page in one big grid view?
Following the documentation for theme development, I tried to edit css/html, but I can't tell which templates control what.
In the current release there is no out of the box support for themes retriving and showing products that don't belong to any category. In the latest dev, there is "collections.all.products" property that can be used in liquid to get all the products and it should include the ones in the root.
I'm trying to customize a product in the CategoryContent panel in BigCommerce. I want to change the markup for each product in the listing, but the markup for the entire product list is trapped in an uneditable blob :%%GLOBAL_CategoryProductListing%% (I'm getting really tired of these unchangable GLOBAL variables).
Is there any way around this so that I can put my own markup on each product in the list. I'm also open, reluctantly, to reconstruct the product list using the API, but I'm not sure how I can access the API from within a BigCommerce store. Is that possible?
I was able to identify Snippets/CategoryProductsItem.html as the file containing the markup for the individual items in a category list.
I hope this saves someone the time it took me to find the file.
The Snippets/CategoryProductsItem.html is the snippet used for grid category files. If you are using the list view, the file is Snippets/CategoryProductsItemList.html.
This file represents each product listing li. It acts as a template which loops through all the %%GLOBAL_CategoryProductListing%% information for this category. To add a feature to the category ProductList li add it to the Snippet, and it will be applied to each item.
Hope this helps.
