Create collections

A collection groups products into a page of their own in your store, for example New arrivals or Jackets. You pick each product yourself, or set conditions so your store adds products automatically.

Create a manual collection

Use this when you want to pick each product yourself, for example a group of products for a campaign.

  1. Go to Products › Collections.
  2. Click Add collection.
  3. Enter the Name. The Path (slug) field fills in from the name.
  4. In the Products section, set Select type to Manual.
  5. Click Select products, tick the products, then click Done.
  6. Under Status, select Active.
  7. Click Save.

Create a smart collection

A smart collection holds every product that matches the conditions you set. New products that match the conditions are added on their own, so you don’t add them by hand.

  1. Go to Products › Collections.
  2. Click Add collection.
  3. Enter the Name.
  4. Under Select type, select Smart.
  5. In the Filter criteria section, click Add condition.
  6. Choose a field, for example Tag, Price or Category, then choose how to compare and a value.
  7. Add another condition if you need to, then choose Products must match all rules or Products may match any rule.
  8. Under Status, select Active.
  9. Click Save.

Each collection can have up to 25 conditions.

Sort the products in a collection

  1. Open the collection in Products › Collections.
  2. Under Display order, choose a way to sort, for example Best selling or Lowest to highest price.
  3. For a manual collection, choose Manual sort if you want to order it yourself, then drag the products into place.
  4. Click Save.

A smart collection doesn’t have Manual sort.

Delete a collection

  1. Open the collection in Products › Collections.
  2. Click Delete collection.
  3. Click Delete to confirm.

If you only want to hide it for a while, change Status to Draft instead of deleting it.

Frequently asked questions

Can I change a manual collection to a smart one?

No. You can only choose the collection type when you create it. To change it, create a new collection with the other type.

Does deleting a collection delete the products in it?

No. Only the collection is deleted. The products stay as they are.
