📘 What Are Templates?
Templates allow you to predefine how product titles and descriptions should look. Instead of writing everything manually, you simply create a reusable format with placeholders (e.g. @color
, @size
, @vendor
). Dropstitch fills in the actual values based on each product’s data.
✍️ Example Template
Description Template:
Vintage @vendor @garment_type in @color, size @size.
Product details: @details
Brand: @vendor
Pit-to-pit: @width cm
Length: @length cm
Title Template:
Vintage @vendor @garment_type - @size

🧠 What Can You Use in a Template?
