Set banner position and size

Learn how to set banner position and size with a safe Juniper & Trail example, shopper impact, options, and recovery checks. Position and size interact with the theme header and viewport. Avoid covering navigation, test sticky behavior while scrolling, and keep touch targets usable on mobile.

Before you begin

  • Enable the Badgy theme app embed
  • Write concise campaign copy and a valid destination
  • Plan mobile and desktop evidence

Keep the campaign in Draft while you verify the configuration. Use a private storefront window where the guide changes shopper-facing behavior.

Step-by-step setup

Set banner position and size shown in the Badgy admin, with numbered callouts for the controls and verification points described below.
Annotated Juniper & Trail example

  1. Switch between banner design and storefront placement controls.

  2. Set the background style, color, opacity, and optional image.

  3. Enter and format banner content, text color, and responsive size.

  4. Inspect the live banner preview at desktop or mobile width.

  5. Save the banner after its preview and placement are verified.

  1. Choose banner Position and decide whether it should be Sticky.
  2. Set banner Height; use Lock aspect ratio only where supported/appropriate.
  3. Set text and button text sizes plus spacing.
  4. Enable Close button only if dismissal fits the message requirement.
  5. Scroll desktop/mobile pages and check header, navigation, consent UI, and quick actions for overlap.

Position and size interact with the theme header and viewport. Avoid covering navigation, test sticky behavior while scrolling, and keep touch targets usable on mobile.

Juniper & Trail example

Juniper & Trail uses set banner position and size for its Weekend Trail Kit offer. Copy is tested at desktop and mobile widths on an included home page and a direct product page. The documentation fixture uses realistic products, inventory states, variants, collections, and protected exclusions so the preview exercises the same decisions as a merchant catalog.

What shoppers will see

  3. Compare another product card to verify consistent campaign treatment.

  1. Confirm the campaign announcement and Shop call to action fit the mobile header.

  2. Check that the badge remains readable on the mobile product card.

  3. Scroll through additional products to verify the collection layout stays usable.

The banner renders only on eligible pages while its campaign and visibility rules allow it; the mobile layout may stack content that is inline on desktop. Check the relevant result from product through cart where applicable. For shopper-facing work, compare desktop and mobile and verify both an eligible and an ineligible item.

Common mistakes and troubleshooting

  • Acting on the wrong shop. Confirm the Shopify store and campaign before following Set banner position and size.
  • Trusting a stale preview. Refresh after catalog, schedule, discount, theme, locale, or market changes.
  • Repeating a background command. Read status and History first; retry only when Badgy presents a recoverable failure.
  • Checking only one viewport. Verify desktop and mobile in a private storefront window.

If the status reports revoked authorization, reconnect Shopify before retrying. If the result still differs from the preview, preserve the campaign ID and approximate time, then open support from this identified shop. Never send customer data, access tokens, or full catalog exports in feedback.

Options reference

| Option | Use it when | Consequence | | --- | --- | --- | | Position | Place in supported viewport/theme area | Can interact with header | | Sticky | Remain during scroll | Consumes viewport space | | Height / text size | Fit content | Avoid clipping/wrapping | | Close button | Allow dismissal | Shopper can hide message |

Badgy behavior in this guide is reviewed against the repository's shipped UI, service rules, and feature design documents. Shopify-owned theme, Markets, Flow, billing, and discount behavior can also depend on the store's Shopify configuration; consult the Shopify Help Center for that platform configuration.
