Play/Pause button (Mute options) for Video Banner Widget For WCAG Compliance

One of the features that would be crucial for WCAG 2.2 compliance needs and ADA compliance is the ability to easily allow the users to pause, play and mute a video for the Video Banner widget. "Website videos must adhere to specific accessibility compliance standards, primarily under the WCAG 2.2 Pause, Stop, Hide criterion. Any auto-playing video lasting longer than 5 seconds or audio playing for over 3 seconds must provide users with an accessible mechanism to pause, stop, mute, or hide the content." The video player widget has some default player options but the Video Banner widget doesn't have any capabilities to do this. We're using the Concept theme and their video banner has a very nice play/pause button option. I would love to see the Video Banner widget upgraded to not only feature this functionality but be able to style the button and position the button over the Video Banner. This needs to work on self-hosted as well as 3rd party hosted videos (YouTube, Vimeo). I rather build all our pages in GemPages but because the client wants video banner headers on most pages we have had to ditch GemPages and use the Concept theme page with a ton of CSS modifications.

A Few UX Suggestions for GemPages Layer Tree

Hi GemPages Team, I hope you're doing well! I've recently started using GemPages for Shopify, and I wanted to reach out because I've been genuinely enjoying the experience. The platform is powerful, intuitive, and has made building pages much faster than I expected. As a UI/UX and Product Designer with over 10 years of experience designing digital products, I naturally pay close attention to user workflows and interaction patterns. While working on a few projects, I noticed a couple of opportunities that I believe could further improve the editing experience, particularly within the Layer Tree. Figma file: https://www.figma.com/design/WoxmzHfqzKGj01r5YIPIEa/GemPages?node-id=1-4133&t=pB3D9TTWVz1j96zX-1 1. More Compact Layer Tree The current Layer Tree occupies a significant portion of the canvas area. A more compact version could help users maintain better visibility of the page while still navigating through sections and elements efficiently. 2. Visible Drag Handle for Better Discoverability Adding a dedicated drag handle (such as a six-dot icon) beside layers could make drag-and-drop functionality more obvious, especially for new users. This follows common UX patterns found in modern design and no-code tools, improving discoverability and reducing friction. 3. Resizable Layer Tree Panel For larger pages with deep hierarchies, the fixed panel width can make navigation difficult, as layer names become truncated and nested structures harder to understand. Allowing users to resize the panel would provide greater flexibility and significantly improve the experience when managing complex page structures. These are relatively small enhancements, but I believe they could have a meaningful impact on usability, particularly for designers, agencies, and power users who work with larger projects. I created these concepts simply because I've enjoyed using the product and wanted to contribute some ideas that might be valuable for the team. Thank you for building such a great tool, and I appreciate your time reviewing these suggestions. I'd be happy to discuss any of the ideas further if they're useful. Wishing the team continued success! Best regards, Zozimo Soares UI/UX & Product Designer

Assign Product Page Templates by Collection

I would like to request a feature that allows product page templates to be assigned at the collection level rather than having to assign a template manually to each individual product. At the moment, if I want certain products to use a specific GemPages product template I need to assign that template product by product. This becomes time-consuming especially when continuously adding new products to the store. The ideal functionality would be: When a product is added to a specific collection, it should automatically use the product page template assigned to that collection. For example, if I assign a custom GemPages template to the “Shoes” collection, then any existing or newly added products within that collection should automatically use that same template without needing to be updated manually. This would be very useful for stores with large catalogues or frequently added products, as it would save a lot of time and help keep product pages consistent across collections. Please could you consider adding this as a future feature?

Broken Link

Hello GemPages! I'm so sorry I missed the message I have been receiving, but I have been very busy with my mom with Dementia. I exchanged messages with Mona, and I would like to talk to her again about the declined application due to broken links. Could someone help me out with correcting the links . Do I suppose to sign out of my social media account, before filling out a new application? Is that what broken links meant, when I didn't sign out? Thank you so much! Michael Tate
