How to add a dynamic title/description inside
While editing the Cover global section, make sure to use a Heading or Text element and pick dynamic skin eg: https://d.pr/i/DmEZUz and also what to show eg: Post/Archive title.
How to add a dynamic background image
Try accessing the parent section’s style settings and look for “Use Post/Category image” eg: https://d.pr/i/ONHrX2 . This will make sure the cover pulls the post feature image, or, the Category image defined in the backend.
Import page covers from other demos
You can use Rey’s template library to import other Covers from different demos eg: https://d.pr/i/amJer2 .
How to assign a page cover to product categories
After you created the page cover global section, head over to Customizer > Page Cover > WooCommerce (Shop) and you can assign it for all product categories or selectively eg: https://d.pr/i/t4tUCq .
There’s also the possibility of building a Rey Custom Template for Product categories and either use the Global section element, or just add the content directly inside the template.
