Let’s dig into some of the new features included in BigCommerce’s Page Builder tool.
Widgets
BigCommerce’s Page Builder has a variety of content blocks, called widgets, that can be dragged and dropped onto a merchant’s site pages. These widgets serve a wide array of needs and use cases. Some examples are:
- Hero Banners
- Carousels
- Product Listings
- Videos
- HTML Blocks
- Spacers
More Features
Other features that you’ll find extremely helpful and deserve a call-out are:
- Drag-and-drop functionality across site – Shopify currently only has drag-and-drop functionality for the homepage of a storefront. BigCommerce provides this option across your site including the home page, product pages, category pages, cart pages, and more.
- Preview Mode: This allows you to see how your site will look on different devices (desktop, tablet, and mobile), providing a streamlined and consistent look across the board – and no surprises.
- The Admin Bar: Located at the top of your live site, this bar allows you to easily get back into Page Builder whenever you need to.
