Catalog Templates - UltraTrains

The Ultra Trains Demo contains 16 total templates.
Of that, 12 are code blocks, referred to sometimes as snippets that are included in the 4 main pages.

Code Blocks

Code Block Name	Description
snip_document-top	top of page, contains mostly head tag information
snip_document-bottom	bottom of page, usually just closing body and html tag
snip_header	page header code, such as a banner or logo, top menu, etc
snip_footer	simple footer navs, copyrights, disclaimers, etc
snip_left	left side navigation
snip_crumb	bread crumbs at top
snip_help-text	help text that displays if a merchant is logged to the site.
snip_group-column	a tiny bit of code to display item information for an item in a large group
snip_pagination	generates pagination navigation for group pages
snip_review	displays product reviews on the item page.
snip_admin-panel	contains code providing an admin panel for you, the merchant (when logged in)
snip_item-top	This is almost exactly like snip_document-top, with the following differences: the title contains the item description. Most importantly, for the demo, the snip_item-top prepopulates some credit card fields so anyone playing with the demo can fake a checkout. In a normal production instance, we would not have this code block, and snip_document-top would suffice.

The Professional Services guys who created this site used the convention of naming code blocks with a snip prefix. Works well enough. There is no requirement for naming conventions with prefixes or suffixes. The determining factor for whether a code block is stand alone or not is the Type checkboxes within the template editor.
