Shelf

⚠️ With the goal of displaying a flexible product list, the shelf and shelf.relatedProducts blocks are deprecated and now configured using the Product Summary List, the Product Summary Shelf, and the Slider Layout blocks. To learn how to configure it, please refer to Building a Shelf.

The Shelf app displays a list of products on your store pages, helping you build your shop window and work on your visual merchandising.

Configuration

  1. Add the shelf app to your theme dependencies in the manifest.json file:
  "dependencies": {
    "vtex.shelf": "1.x",
  }

Now, you can use all the blocks exported by the shelf app. See the full list below:

Block name Description
shelf https://img.shields.io/badge/-Deprecated-red Renders a list of products in the store home page.
shelf.relatedProducts https://img.shields.io/badge/-Deprecated-red Renders a list of related products in the product details page.
  1. Declare the shelf.relatedProduct in the product template (store.product) using its props. For example:
{
  "store.product": {
    "children": [
      "breadcrumb",
      "flex-layout.row#main",
      "shelf.relatedProducts"
    ]
  }
}

⚠️ Warning

Note that for hiding unavailable/out-of-stock items, there are 2 different props: hideUnavailableItems and hideOutOfStockItems. They do the same thing, but each is used by a different component: Shelf and RelatedProducts, respectively.
