Shopkit Themes

Welcome to the Shopkit theme documentation. If you want to build a theme from scratch or just want to customize your current one, we've got everything you need.

Get to know how is the basic anatomy of a theme, our language syntax, functions, filters and tags. We also have some code samples to get you started.

Getting Started

To customize a theme, you need to clone it first. Choose what theme you want to start from, clone it and work from there.

Our template language is based on Twig. We suggest you to take a look on the official twig documentation to learn the basics and syntax.

We keep an updated Github repo with the default theme, so you can check the code and subscribe for updates we may add over time.

A Shopkit theme consists of 17 pages:

Page Filename Description
About about.tpl About page template
Base base.tpl The base template
Blog blog.tpl Blog template
Cart cart.tpl Shopping cart template
Category category.tpl Product category template
Complete complete.tpl Complete order template
Confirm confirm.tpl Confirm order template
Contact contact.tpl Contact page template
Data data.tpl Order data form template
Home home.tpl Pomepage template
Page page.tpl Page template
Payment payment.tpl Payment template
Post post.tpl Blog post template
Product product.tpl Product template
Sales sales.tpl Sales products template
New new.tpl New products template
Search search.tpl Search Results template

The base template is the most important, where all other templates are included. Header, footer and other components that are always displayed, must be set in base template. It's required that this is included in every template with this code {% extends 'base.tpl' %}

This is a stripped down HTML template:

<html>
  <head>
   <title>{{ title }}</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ store.assets.css }}">
    {{ head_content }}
  </head>
  <body>
    {% block content %}{% endblock %}
    {{ footer_content }}
  </body>
</html>
{% extends 'base.tpl' %}

{% block content %}
  <h1>{{ page.title }}</h1>
  <div>{{ page.content }}</div>
{% endblock %}
The {{ head_content }} and {{ footer_content }} are required to assure the theme works properly.

Syntax

There are two kinds of delimiters: {% ... %} and {{ ... }}. The first one is used to execute statements such as for-loops, the latter prints the result of an expression to the template.

Twig reference

This is the Twig reference: tags, filters, functions, tests and operators. You can use these as is, we have not modified any of their behavior.

Tags

Tags control the logic of the template.

Tag Description
block Blocks are used for inheritance and act as placeholders and replacements at the same time.
extends The extends tag can be used to extend a template from another one.
filter Filter sections allow you to apply regular Twig filters on a block of template data.
for Loop over each item in a sequence.
if The if statement in Twig is comparable with the if statements of PHP.
set Inside code blocks you can also assign values to variables. Assignments use the set tag and can have multiple targets.
spaceless Use the spaceless tag to remove whitespace between HTML tags, not whitespace within HTML tags or whitespace in plain text.
use The use tag imports a template without using inheritance. Template inheritance is one of the most powerful Twig's feature but it is limited to single inheritance.

For a comprehensive list of tags refer to the twig website.

Filters

Variables can be modified by filters. Filters are separated from the variable by a pipe symbol (|) and may have optional arguments in parentheses. Multiple filters can be chained. The output of one filter is applied to the next.

Filter Description
abs The abs filter returns the absolute value.
batch The batch filter "batches" items by returning a list of lists with the given number of items.
capitalize The capitalize filter capitalizes a value. The min character will be uppercase, all others lowercase.
date The date filter formats a date to a given format.
date_modify The date_modify filter modifies a date with a given modifier string.
escape The escape filter escapes a string for safe insertion into the final output.
first The first filter returns the first "element" of a sequence, a mapping, or a string.
format The format filter formats a given string by replacing the placeholders (placeholders follows the sprintf notation).
join The join filter returns a string which is the concatenation of the items of a sequence.
json_encode The json_encode filter returns the JSON representation of a value.
keys The keys filter returns the keys of an array. It is useful when you want to iterate over the keys of an array.
last The last filter returns the last "element" of a sequence, a mapping, or a string.
length The length filter returns the number of items of a sequence or mapping, or the length of a string.
lower The lower filter converts a value to lowercase.
merge The merge filter merges an array with another array
nl2br The nl2br filter inserts HTML line breaks before all newlines in a string.
number_format The number_format filter formats numbers. It is a wrapper around PHP's number_format function.
reverse The reverse filter reverses a sequence, a mapping, or a string.
round The round filter rounds a number to a given precision.
slice The slice filter extracts a slice of a sequence, a mapping, or a string.
sort The sort filter sorts an array.
split The split filter splits a string by the given delimiter and returns a list of strings.
striptags The striptags filter strips SGML/XML tags and replace adjacent whitespace by one space.
title The title filter returns a titlecased version of the value. Words will start with uppercase letters, all remaining characters are lowercase.
trim The trim filter strips whitespace (or other characters) from the beginning and end of a string.
upper The upper filter converts a value to uppercase.
url_encode The url_encode filter percent encodes a given string as URL segment or an array as query string.

For a comprehensive list of tags refer to the twig website.

Functions

Functions can be called to generate content. Functions are called by their name followed by parentheses (()) and may have arguments.

Function Description
attribute The attribute function can be used to access a "dynamic" attribute of a variable.
block When a template uses inheritance and if you want to print a block multiple times, use the block function.
cycle The cycle function cycles on an array of values.
date Converts an argument to a date to allow date comparison.
max max returns the biggest value of a sequence or a set of values.
min min returns the lowest value of a sequence or a set of values.
random The random function returns a random value depending on the supplied parameter type.
range Returns a list containing an arithmetic progression of integers.

For a comprehensive list of tags refer to the twig website.

Tests

Tests can be used to test a variable against a common expression.

Test Description
defined Checks if a variable is defined in the current context.
divisible by Checks if a variable is divisible by a number.
empty Checks if a variable is empty.
even Returns true if the given number is even.
iterable Checks if a variable is an array or a traversable object.
null Returns true if the variable is null.
odd Returns true if the given number is odd.
same as Checks if a variable is the same as another variable. This is the equivalent to === in PHP.

For a comprehensive list of tags refer to the twig website.

Operators
Operator Description
in The in operator performs containment test. It returns true if the left operand is contained in the right
is The is operator performs tests. Tests can be used to test a variable against a common expression. The right operand is name of the test
Math (+, -, /, %, //, *, **)
Logic (and, or, not, (), b-and, b-xor, b-or)
Comparisons (==, !=, <, >, >=, <=, ===, starts with, ends with, matches)
Others (.., |, ~, ., [], ?:)

Shopkit reference

These are our proprietary functions, filters and tags.

Filters
money_with_sign

Returns a value formatted with the currency set in user account settings.

{{ item.price|money_with_sign }}

Prints 122,95 €

e_attr

Returns an escaped string for safe insertion into the HTML attributes.

{{ product.title|e_attr }}

Prints Bed-linen "End of the day"

Functions
form_open

Creates an opening form tag with a base URL built from your shop address. It will optionally let you add form attributes, and will always add the attribute accept-charset.

{{ form_open('cart/complete', {'class':'my-css-class', 'id':'my-id'}) }}

The above example would create a form that points to your base URL plus the "cart/complete" URI segments.

<form action="http:/example.com/cart/complete" method="post" accept-charset="utf-8" class="my-css-class" id="my-id" />

These are special Shopkit form actions:

Action Description
newsletter/register Submit a newsletter form
contact_form Submit the contact form
cart/update Action to update the cart form
cart/complete Action to the last step of checkout
cart/post/payment Action to the payment step of checkout
cart/post/confirm Action to the confirmation step of checkout
form_open_cart

Creates an opening form tag with the url to add a product to the cart. It will optionally let you add form attributes, and will always add the attribute accept-charset. This is different from form_open because you pass the product id, instead of the URL.

{{ form_open_cart(product.id, {'class':'my-css-class'}) }}
form_close

Produces a closing </form> tag.

{{ form_close() }}
products

Returns a list of products with defined parameters.

You can list products from different pools:

  • featured List products marked as featured
  • new List products marked as new/recent
  • on_sale List products marked as promotion/on sale
  • search List products based on a search

If you don't set a pool, no filter will be applied and all products will be retrieved.

Examples:
{% set products = products('featured limit:9') %}
{# Assigns a variable with featured products limited by 9 per page #}
{% for product in products('order:featured') %}
{# Returns all products ordered by featured #}
{% for product in products('order:#{get.order_by} category:#{category.id} limit:25') %}
{# Returns products from the current category, ordered by a get parameter (?order_by) with a limit of 25 items per page #}

{% for product in products('order:#{get.order_by} category:[123,456] limit:25') %}
{# Returns products from categories with the id 123 and 456, ordered by a get parameter (?order_by) with a limit of 25 items per page #}
{% for product in products('exclude:categories[123,456]') %}
{# Returns all products except products from categories with the id 123 and 456 #}

{% for product in products('exclude:products[123,456]') %}
{# Returns all products except products with the id 123 and 456 #}
{% for product in products('search %query%').results %}
{# Returns all products matching query #}

{% for product in products('search %query%').total_results %}
{# Returns the number of products matching query #}

{% for product in products('search %query%').query %}
{# Returns the search query #}

When calling products function with the filter search it's returned an array with search result information.

Name Description
search.results Products returned
search.total_results Number of products returned
search.query Search query
Parameters

pagination

Pagination auto detects the template and outputs the according pagination with defined parameters, an extra class parameter can also be set.

Examples:
{{ pagination('limit:9') }}
{# outputs a pagination with a limit of 9 items per page #}
{% set products_per_page = 9 %}
{% set products_category = category.id %}

{% for product in products('category:#{products_category} limit:#{products_per_page}') %}
  <h1>{{ product.title }}</h1>
{% endfor %}

{{ pagination('category:#{products_category} limit:#{products_per_page}', 'my-css-class') }}

{# outputs a pagination with a limit of 9 items and passes an extra class #}
The pagination() parameters must match the loop function products().
site_url

word_limiter

Truncates a string to the number of words specified

{{ word_limiter(text, 250) }}

You can create custom fields with custom data in the checkout process. This data will be passed to the order. custom_field is an array field containing a json, with the following structure:

Simple custom data:
{"title":"The title of your custom field","key":"the key","value":"the value"}
Multiple custom data:
{
  "title":"The title of your custom field",
  "data":[
    {"key":"the key 1","value":"the value 1"},
    {"key":"the key 2","value":"the value 2"}
  ]
}

You can have as many custom fields as you want/need. Usually you register the custom field with an html input:

<input type="text" name="custom_field[field_name_1]" value='{{ user.custom_field.field_name_1 }}'>
Name Description
user.custom_field.field_name_1.title Title of the custom field named field_name_1

user.custom_field.field_name_1.value Value of the custom field named field_name_1

You can use our helper function to generate the json strucuture: custom_field_encode('Your title', 'your_key', 'Your value'), or in the case of multiple custom data: custom_field_encode('Your title', [['your_key_1', 'Your value 1'], ['your_key_2', 'Your value 2']])

Show random products from a list of products

Because of aggressive Shopkit caching, you might not be able to achieve randomness in every page request, so you want to random in the runtime instead of querying random products. ie: products('featured order:random limit:3')

{% set products = products('featured limit:25') %}
{% set products_to_show = 3 %}

{% for product in products|slice(random(products|length - products_to_show), products_to_show) %}
  <h1>{{ product.title }}</h1>
{% endfor %}
