What are Findify Smart Collections?

Findify Smart Collections are an intelligent way to present specific product segments to your users.
The added value with Findify Smart Collections is that you will have all the features you love in Findify search, now on a collection level:

Dynamic filtering
Trend based product ordering (using our Machine Learning platform)
Lightning fast response time

Findify Smart Collections can be used to replace specific category pages on your site, create dedicated landing pages, or as the complete collection engine for your store. Smart Collections are also SEO friendly, so they are indexed by search engines to make sure you make the best of your product data.

How can I create a Findify Smart Collection?

All you need to do is add one div tag to anywhere you'd like to include your Findify Smart Collection[s]

<div data-findify="search"></div>

How can I add extra content to my Findify Smart Collection pages?

The Findify Smart Collection results can be easily decorated with any content from your store (like custom banners, reviews, recommendations. etc).
All you need to do is put the content before and/or after the Findify Smart Collection div, for example

<div class="banner"> 
    <a href="#"><img src="mybanner.png"/></a>
</div>

<div data-findify="search"></div>

<div class="text">
    <p>Some extra text</p>
</div>

<div id="home-findify-rec-1"></div>

How can I add a fallback for Findify Smart Collections?

Please note: if you will not add a fallback, nothing will be displayed on the page in case our servers go down

For the cases when Findify servers are not responding, you can add a fallback to display custom markup instead of Findify Smart Collections.

To do this, you need to add a div to the page with the following class and style, which should reside inside of the data-findify="search" div

<div data-findify="search">
  <div class="findify-fallback" style="display:none;">
    ..... default collection code goes here....
  </div>
</div>

Anything that you will put inside the div will be rendered as a fallback.

Shopify specific integration

If you are a Shopify customer, you should put the Findify Smart Collection html div code into your collection.liquid template.
This way you can use liquid template variables to easily extend the collection page's content.

Replacing all your Shopify collections with Findify Smart Collections

Don't forget to include current collection code in the fallback div

Put this code in your collection.liquid template file (or another collection template file)

<style>.findify-component-spinner,.findify-component-spinner:after{border-radius:50%;width:60px;height:60px}.findify-component-spinner{margin:60px auto 0!important;position:relative;-webkit-transform:translateZ(0);-ms-transform:translateZ(0);transform:translateZ(0);-webkit-animation:findify-component-spinner-animation .7s infinite cubic-bezier(.67,.35,.7,.8);animation:findify-component-spinner-animation .7s infinite cubic-bezier(.67,.35,.7,.8);-ms-transform-origin:50% 50%;-webkit-transform-origin:50% 50%;transform-origin:50% 50%;border-top:3px solid #eaeaea;border-right:3px solid #eaeaea;border-bottom:3px solid #eaeaea;border-left:3px solid #c6c6c6}@-webkit-keyframes findify-component-spinner-animation{0%{-webkit-transform:rotate(90deg);transform:rotate(90deg)}100%{-webkit-transform:rotate(450deg);transform:rotate(450deg)}}@keyframes findify-component-spinner-animation{0%{-webkit-transform:rotate(90deg);transform:rotate(90deg)}100%{-webkit-transform:rotate(450deg);transform:rotate(450deg)}}</style>
<div data-findify="search" style="min-height: 400px;">
  <div class="findify-component-spinner"></div>
  <div class="findify-fallback" style="display:none;">
    ..... default collection code goes here....
  </div>
</div>

BigCommerce specific integration

Once you've configured all your Findify Smart Collections, go category.html edit page:
[store_url]/admin/designmode.php?ToDo=editFile&File=category.html&f=a
Replace the original category markup by the following code

<style>.findify-component-spinner,.findify-component-spinner:after{border-radius:50%;width:60px;height:60px}.findify-component-spinner{margin:60px auto 0!important;position:relative;-webkit-transform:translateZ(0);-ms-transform:translateZ(0);transform:translateZ(0);-webkit-animation:findify-component-spinner-animation .7s infinite cubic-bezier(.67,.35,.7,.8);animation:findify-component-spinner-animation .7s infinite cubic-bezier(.67,.35,.7,.8);-ms-transform-origin:50% 50%;-webkit-transform-origin:50% 50%;transform-origin:50% 50%;border-top:3px solid #eaeaea;border-right:3px solid #eaeaea;border-bottom:3px solid #eaeaea;border-left:3px solid #c6c6c6}@-webkit-keyframes findify-component-spinner-animation{0%{-webkit-transform:rotate(90deg);transform:rotate(90deg)}100%{-webkit-transform:rotate(450deg);transform:rotate(450deg)}}@keyframes findify-component-spinner-animation{0%{-webkit-transform:rotate(90deg);transform:rotate(90deg)}100%{-webkit-transform:rotate(450deg);transform:rotate(450deg)}}</style>
<div data-findify="search" style="min-height: 400px;">
  <div class="findify-component-spinner"></div>
  <div class="findify-fallback" style="display:none;">
    ..... default collection code goes here....
  </div>
</div>

Put the initial category code inside of findify-fallback div. In the situation where our servers are down, this div will be rendered instead.
