How to add new products to your online store?

Add products and display them in your store.
When you’re done setting up your store, you’re ready to add products. There are two ways to create new products:
  1. Through the product management view;
  2. Through the ‘Products’ content area.

Add a product through the product management view

To get to the product management view, go to Store > Products. Here you can see all your existing products.
'Add new product' button in products' admin view
To add a new product, click on the Add new product button and fill out the following fields:
  • Name – product name displayed in store;
  • Description – product description displayed on product page;
  • Categories – assign your product into one or several categories;
  • Status – if you wish to hide the product, you can use the status Draft;
  • URL slug – insert the name that the automatically generated product page URL uses; for example if you write “shoe”, then the product page URL is mystore.com/en/products/shoe;
  • Gallery – add an uploaded picture as product image.
  • Price – enter the net sum, below you can see the added VAT and total price
  • Stock – you can leave it blank; this way amount is infinite;
  • Dimensions - You can set the product's length, width, height, and weight; product weight is necessary for using the DPD data exchange.

Categories

If your products are divided into more than one category, you should assign a category to each product. To do this, enter the category title, such as "Furniture", in the Category field.

Adding categories in the product settings view

Once the products are added, you can use the Products content area to display your products, either displaying all or selecting specific categories. This guide provides a comprehensive explanation on how to add the Products content area and how to filter desired categories.

Add a product through the ‘Products’ content area

You can also do all this in a different order and add a Products content area first. The Products content area comes with a +Product button which enables you to add new products easily. This way a new product is created in your store and is automatically assigned in those categories that have been selected in this particular Products content area.
