Re: Static Block At The Top Of Product Page

steven_banks · ‎06-06-2018

Is there a way to add a static block to the top of my product page, just beneath my navigation bar.

Thanks in advance.

You need to create one static block name product-topblock and set below content under the catalog_product_view.xml file,

Path is app/code/{Packagename}/{Modulename}/view/frontend/layout/catalog_product_view.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>

        <block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="product-topblock" after="breadcrumbs">
			<arguments>
				<argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">product-topblock</argument> 
			</arguments>			
		</block>

    </body>
</page>

Hi,

Thank you for your reply, I do not seem to have a catalog_product_view.xml

You need to create below file at your theme level,

app/design/frontend/{Packagename}/{themename}/Magento_Catalog/layout/catalog_product_view.xml
