Categories, specifications and variants

Categories

1. Go to Collections and click Product categories.
2. Click Create new and type the Name (with more languages, one per language).
3. Want a subcategory? Choose the main category under Parent.
4. Click Save (or press Enter). Several categories in a row? Click Save and add another: Parent then stays filled in, which is handy for a series of subcategories.
5. You add a Description and Photo by opening the category in the list afterwards.
6. Changing the order? Grab a category in the list by the dots and drag it to another place. Drag it onto a main category to make it a subcategory. The numbering updates automatically. Then click Save order. The order in the list is also the order on your website.

Then link one or more categories in the product.

Specifications

Specifications are properties with a value, such as Material: oak or Pack size: 10. Open the product and go to the Specifications tab. Fill in a Property and a Value on each line; add as many lines as you need. If your website has more languages, add lines in the first language and translate them afterwards.

Variants

Variants are choices, such as Colour: red, yellow, blue or Size: S, M, L. You fill them in on the Variants tab: on each line a Type and the Options, separated by commas. They are shown with the product, but don't have their own price. If the price differs per variant, create separate products.
