The fifth section of the “Get Started” Page is “Customize to Your Theme”. This section is used to change the overall look of your product locator and/or store locator through changes such as:
- Color Customization
- Word Translation
- Template Customization
- Widget Editing
The “Customize to Your Theme” section has two buttons:
- Color Change
- Translate
Each of these buttons will take you to the “Widgets” page of WP Maps. If you have a store or product locator build created you will need to click on the “Options” button in the “Builds” section to access a list of options.
From the “Options” button (in the “Builds” section) you will be presented with 6 options:
- The “Edit” option will allow you to make changes to your product and store build
- The “Preview” option is used to see what your product and store locator build looks like
- The “Color Update” option will enable you to change the color of your product locator build
- The “Customize” option will take you to a screen where you will be able to customize the displayed information of the store list, product card, store infobox, lead forms, etc.
- The “Translate” option will enable you to change certain fixed words on the platform into your preferred synonyms
- Finally, the “Delete” option will permanently delete the build from your account
In this article, we will briefly explain what 4 of these options (“Edit”, “Color Update”, “Customize” and “Translate”) are used for.
