    Limit on Fragments?

    I am looking at setting up a gallery of rings that we have engraved for clients so that current clients can view, and choose what they like.

    This would be constantly added to as we engrave more & more.

    I am just trying to plan in my head if I should do this with hundreds of variables where I just add the details and a layout shows them, or just add a fragment for each.

    My real question. Is there a limit to the amount of fragments on a page? even if there isn't a limit, would this cause any other issues.

    Normally I would just do this a static page, but with it being constantly added to I wanted an easier daily approach to updating.

    And of course if you have an idea that I haven't thought of, it would be appreciated.

    This is the sort of layout I am after, boxes with image and engraving spec listed https://www.titanjewellery.co.uk/Men...Engraving.html

    Hi Jason,
    Unfortunately I can't offer you technical advice but I do think you've done a great job with the website. Shows just what is possible.

      People use filters to cut through what they want so using fragments would create a list that clients would have to trawl through.
      One idea would be to set up a section and sub-sections with the images with easily recognisable descriptions or codes and create properties for them so they are searchable and can be added as a component.

        I don’t think there is any limit on fragments, however the page could end up too big so customers may just give up scrolling.

        if it were me, I’d set up a product summary layout that matched the fragment you were going to use, create a section but don’t set it to create a single product page. Set up some filter variables and then just add it as a list of products, exclude from product feed and set filtering to that section, that way customers can filter by “style” etc and you can split the page via pagination.
        Many Thanks

          Jeff, many thanks for your kind words.
          believe me, under the bonnet it is a hash of code. Most of the time I don’t know what things do

          many thanks, hadn’t given this approach a thought, but it does make sense.
