How to create a product collection / category

A product collection refers to a set of products that share some characteristics.

The product collections serve as a means of organizing products in your store in a systematic and user-friendly manner.

By creating collections, you can organize your products into logical categories that shoppers can easily navigate. This feature is especially helpful when customers are looking for something specific or want to explore a particular type of product.

Additionally, collections can be used as a marketing tool to promote your newest or most popular items.

Creating a product collection

Creating product collections is easy and straightforward process:

1. On your eCommerce admin panel, navigate to the Catalog → Products → Collections from the left menu.
2. On the “Collections” page, click on the “Create collection” button from the top right of the page.
3. Here, write down the collection title.
4. Writing collection description is optional.
5. Next, add an image for the Collection’s cover photo. 1080×1080 (1:1) recommended with the max size 2MB. You can also add an image from the URL.
6. Then, set the collection’s status as “published” if you want the collection to be lived immediately. Collection status can be found from the right side of the page.

Done! Collection type is currently set as “Manual” by default. It means that, you should add products to this collection one-by-one.
