Products

The Products section is where you build your entire catalog — from individual items and their variants to the categories and collections that organize them.

1. Creating a Product

Navigate to Products → All Products → New Product.

Fill in the following fields:

[!NOTE] A product without any published variants will not be visible to customers, even if it is set to “published.”

2. Product Variants

Each product needs at least one variant — a specific, purchasable version of the product (e.g. “Red / Medium / In Stock”).

For each variant, fill in:

[!TIP] Use a consistent SKU format across your catalog (e.g. CATEGORY-VARIANT-SIZE) to make inventory management easier.

3. Product Options

Options define the dimensions that vary across your variants — for example, Color and Size.

To add options:

1. Go to the product edit page → Options section
2. Click Add Option
3. Enter the option name (e.g. “Color”) and its values (e.g. “Red, Blue, Green”)
4. Repeat for additional options (e.g. “Size” → “S, M, L, XL”)

Once options are defined, the system maps each combination (e.g. Red + M) to a variant. You can then assign the correct SKU, price, and stock to each.

[!NOTE] If your product has only one version (no size or color variation), you still need one variant. Create a single variant with a generic SKU like PRODUCT-DEFAULT.

4. Publishing and Unpublishing Products

A product can be in one of two states:

To change a product’s publish state:

1. Open the product edit page
2. Find the Status toggle in the top-right panel
3. Toggle between Published and Draft
4. Click Save

5. Setting a Default Variant

When a customer opens a product page, the default variant is pre-selected. To set one:

1. Open the product edit page → Variants section
2. Find the variant you want as default
3. Click the Set as Default option in that variant’s menu
4. Save the product

[!TIP] Set your most popular or lowest-priced variant as the default to improve conversion.

6. Managing Stock

Updating Stock Quantities

1. Go to Products → All Products
2. Open the product you want to update
3. Navigate to the Variants section
4. Edit the Stock Quantity field for the relevant variant
5. Save

Low Stock Alerts

Set a low stock threshold so you’re notified before you run out:

1. Open the variant settings
2. Set the Low Stock Threshold (e.g. 5 units)
3. When stock falls below this number, an alert appears in your dashboard notifications

[!WARNING] Products with zero stock are automatically marked as Out of Stock on the storefront. Customers cannot add them to cart until stock is restored.

7. Managing Categories

Categories help customers navigate your store. Navigate to Products → Categories to manage them.

Creating a Category

1. Click New Category
2. Enter the Name (e.g. “Women’s Clothing”)
3. The Slug is auto-generated (e.g. womens-clothing) — edit it if needed
4. Optionally select a Parent Category to create a hierarchy (e.g. “Dresses” under “Women’s Clothing”)
5. Click Save

Editing and Deleting

• To edit, click the category name and update the fields
• To delete, click the three-dot menu → Delete

[!WARNING] Deleting a category does not delete its products. Products in a deleted category will become uncategorized. Reassign them before deleting.

Category Hierarchy

Parent-child category relationships create a hierarchy displayed in the storefront navigation:

Women's Clothing
  ├── Dresses
  ├── Tops
  └── Trousers

8. Category Suggestions

Customers can suggest new categories when they feel an existing product doesn’t fit. You’ll receive a notification in your dashboard.

To review suggestions:

1. Go to Products → Category Suggestions
2. Review the suggested name and the product it was submitted for
3. Click Approve to create the category, or Reject to dismiss

9. Collections

Collections are curated groupings of products used for featured sections (e.g. “New Arrivals”, “Summer Sale”, “Best Sellers”).

To create a collection:

1. Go to Products → Collections → New Collection
2. Enter the collection name and description
3. Click Add Products and select the products to include
4. Set a display image (used on the storefront collection page)
5. Save and publish

Collections can be displayed on your storefront homepage or linked from the navigation menu.

10. Product Tags

Tags are flexible labels you can attach to any product for search and filtering purposes.

• Add tags when creating or editing a product in the Tags field
• Tags are comma-separated (e.g. cotton, summer, casual)
• Customers can filter by tag on category and search result pages
• Tags can also be used to build dynamic collections
