Product Pagination - Faster Store Loading
🚀 Faster Loading for Stores with Large Product Catalogs
We’ve added a new pagination system that significantly reduces the number of products loaded when a store’s homepage is opened for the first time.
You can now choose one of the following options in your store settings:
🔹 Classic pagination - for example, 48 products per page with navigation between pages.
🔹 “Load More” - the first 48 products are loaded initially, while the rest are loaded as you click the button, without reloading the page.
At the same time, subsequent products and their images are not loaded in advance. This reduces the initial page load and helps stores with large product catalogs open faster.

🔎 Important: Each page has a separate URL, a proper canonical URL, and is accessible to search engines. Search still works across the entire product catalog, including products that have not yet been displayed on the homepage.
⚙️ This feature is completely optional. To enable it, go to “Template Settings”, find the “Product Pagination” setting, and select the option that suits you.
If pagination is not enabled, the store will continue to work with the previous product display logic.
As a result, stores with large product catalogs become faster and more convenient for users.
