In the left-hand sidebar, select ‘pages’ under the ‘Online Store’ tab.
#SHOPIFY MOVEALONG CODE#
If you want to change up your color scheme or typography, add social media icons or dig into your theme’s code – for instance, to get rid of the “Powered by Shopify” branding – this is the place to go.Īlthough you can make the majority of changes in the customization editor, you’ll need to go back to your administration dashboard if you want to add additional pages. Here you’ll find two extra menus, theme settings, and theme actions. If you’re looking for more creative control over the way your store looks, scroll to the very bottom of the toolbar. Clicking the symbol again will bring them back. But don’t worry – they won’t be gone forever.
Clicking on the eye symbol will remove various elements, hiding them from view. This sidebar allows you to edit text and upload pictures with the click of a button, but it also lets you make changes to the page’s overall layout. On the right is a preview of what your changes will look like in real life. On the left-hand side, you’ll find each element of the page broken down into editable sections. The template editor is split into two parts. I also liked the SEO prompt to add a description.’ ‘Loved the option to add products to the collection either manually or automatically (based on conditions) – Shopify thinks one step ahead for the user. Choose the correct collection and press save.Ĭollections also have a search engine preview, so make sure you check your meta title and meta description to give yourself the best chance of ranking well and attracting visitors. Next, click on the ‘More Actions’ drop-down menu and select ‘add to collection’. Go to the product page and select the item you want to add.
#SHOPIFY MOVEALONG MANUAL#
This is well-suited to something like a new arrivals section of your store.Ĭreating a manual collection means you’ll have to add the products yourself. You can set these conditions below the collection type tickboxes, instructing the platform to look out for certain criteria that mean a product fits within a specific collection. But for this to work, you’ll have to set some ground rules so Shopify knows which items belong where.
With an automated collection, certain products will be automatically added when they’re uploaded.
When creating your collection, there are two different types to choose from: a manual collection, or an automated one. You can even add a cover image if you like. You’ll then need to name your collection and add a description, similar to when uploading a product. Click the green ‘Create collection’ button in the top right. This will take you to a page displaying all of the collections you currently feature. In the left-hand sidebar, click on the ‘Collections’ option. Use the products page to add items to a specific collectionĬreating a collection is just as easy as adding a product. Adding a collection is similar to adding a product – you’ll need to give it a name and a description, but you’ll also need to decide if it’s a manual or automated collection. The Collections page helps you to maintain and keep track of them. You can put collections anywhere on your site.
#SHOPIFY MOVEALONG PROFESSIONAL#
We recommend using them if you want a more professional and streamlined interface. We think these are particularly useful because they help your customers find what they’re looking for, but they also keep your store organized as your business and inventory grows.
Common examples include ‘womenswear’ or ‘menswear’, but you can be as specific as you like, splitting your inventory into product groups, colors, or sizes. A collection is exactly what it sounds like – a cluster of products that fall under a similar category.
