Hotspot banner settings and short info

The "Hotspot banner" section in Shopify enables you to create interactive hotspots on your image banner. Within the section settings, you have the flexibility to customize the banner view. In the "Hotspot item" block, you can select products to be displayed through small pop-ups when users click on a hotspot.


You have the flexibility to add up to 5 hotspot items and customize their view and positions on the banner. Each hotspot can contain essential details like the product's name with a link to its product detail page, the product's price, and an 'Add To Cart' button. For products that offer various options, like size, color, or extras, the pop-up will display comprehensive information, enabling users to select their preferred options easily.


By using the "Hotspot banner" section, you can engage your customers and enhance their shopping experience by showcasing specific products directly within the banner image.
