Beta widgets from XMPie - XMPieLab/uStore-NG GitHub Wiki
XMPie has created some sample widgets that add commonly requested features to the storefront. The widgets below are free to download and use, but are currently beta versions and may change in future. If you encounter any problems, you should report them to XMPie Support, but fixes and improvements for beta widgets may be slower than for released products.
The uStore help guide provides information on how to add the widgets to your uStore server. Once uploaded to your uStore server, you can apply and customize widgets on each store individually via the theme editor.
There is also a video on XMPie Campus that shows how to use and customize the beta sample widgets.
In addition to the widget download links below which can be uploaded to uStore, there are also a separate SDK links which include the project used to create the widget. To use the SDK, download and unzip the file and refer to the included readme.md file for more information.
Custom HTML and CSS Widget
This widget allows you to inject any HTML and CSS into available widget slots. It is useful for adding text, links and images to the storefront. Common uses are to add details into the footer area, or to create notifications or banners. Note that any CSS added with widgets is applied only in the context of the widget - meaning that it will not apply to elements outside of the widget.
