Product lines

The products you are going to sell in the webshop have to be added to product lines. A product line is a category of products, for example:

  • Clothes
  • Merchendise
  • Gadgets

There must be at least one pdocut line in the webshop. Visitors can use the product lines as filters to search through the products.

You are free to use the products lines the way that is best for your organization. If you only sell one category of products, for example clothes, we recommend that you use the product lines to sort your products futher, for example:

  • Pants
  • Sweaters
  • T-shirts

Create a product line

Click on ‘New product line’ in the toolbar. Fill in the fields:

  • Name – Fill in the name/title of your product line, e.g. ‘Clothes’ or ‘Sweaters’.
  • View – This option is selected by default. This means that the product line is visible on the website. You can turn off this option if the product line (temporarily) shouldn’t be visible on the website.

Properties

Enter the properties that you want to specify for the products in this product line. For example:

  • Color – For a product, this can be specified as ‘Red’, ‘Yellow’ etc.
  • Material – For a product, this can be specified as ‘Wool’, ‘Cotton’ etc.

Click on ‘New property’ to add a property. The price of the product can be added in the element ‘Shop’, you don’t need to create a property for this.

For each property, fill in the name, e.g. ‘Color’. In the second field, choose the type of the field. The options are:

  • Number – A field with only numbers.
  • Text line – A field with text including numbers and special characters.
  • Decimal number – A number with decimals.
  • Check box – This will be displayed on the website as ‘Yes’ or ‘No’.
  • Date – Date field.
  • Link – A field with a link to another web page.
  • Text box – Text box with space for multiple lines, good for descriptions.

Click on ‘save’.

Click on  behind the product line to delete it. Confirm with ‘delete’ or cancel with ‘Back’.

Note: If a product line needs to be removed from the website temporarily, don’t delete it, but turn off the option ‘view’.
