Injectables overview
What an injectable is, the list page, and the order to read these pages in.
An injectable is a piece of content StoreSpan shows on your storefront: a banner, a mega menu, a countdown, a custom block of HTML and CSS, a section built in the visual builder, or a whole page. You create it in the dashboard, say where it goes and who should see it, and publish it. Nothing changes on your store until you publish.
Before anything shows
Most injectables reach the storefront through a small script, the loader, that you install once. See Installing the loader. Two other delivery routes do not need the loader: content embedded in a theme region as a BigCommerce widget, and content baked into the page before any visitor arrives. See Delivery.
The list
Open Storefront › Injectables. The page shows how many injectables the store has, a New injectable button, and a table with these columns:
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Name | Opens the injectable. |
| Type | Its content type, such as Mega menu or Countdown. |
| Status | Draft, Active, Paused, Archived or Preview only. See Publishing. |
| Priority | Higher renders first when several injectables land on one page. |
| Analytics (last 30 days) | Views and clicks, or Analytics unavailable when the numbers cannot be fetched right now. |
| Actions | The buttons that change status, such as Activate, Pause or Archive. |
The count is the number of injectables, not the number currently showing. An active injectable can be silent because of its schedule, its rules or a missing theme region; the injectable's own page tells you which.
When the store has none yet, the page says No injectables yet. Create one to start rendering content on your storefront.
