Categories

Group your products so shoppers can find them, with subcategories, descriptions and pictures.

Categories group your products on the store. They are separate from any item categories in Accounting or Inventory. A product can be in several.

Open Catalogue > Categories.

Add a category

1. Enter its name.
2. To make a subcategory, choose a parent category.
3. Add a description and picture if you like.
4. Save.

Use the arrows to change the order. From the Standard plan, each category can also have its own search title and description.

Put products in a category

Open the product and tick its categories under Categories. You can add a category from there too.

To show a category on your home page, add a Categories or Products section to the page. See Design your store and pages.

Rename or remove

If you change a category's web address, the old address keeps working and sends people to the new one.

Removing a category moves its subcategories up one level. Products stay on sale.

Ribbons

A ribbon is a small label on a product's picture, such as New or Sale. Make one and choose it by hand on each product, or let it follow a rule: new in the last 30 days, on sale, low stock or out of stock.
