Create a new Product
Before adding your first product, let’s get familiar with how product categories, tags, and attributes work.
Adding a Simple product is similar to writing a post:
- 1.Go to Dashboard > CATALOG > Products > Add new Product. You then have a familiar interface and should immediately feel at home.
- 2.Enter a product Title and Description.
- 3.Publish status: if you don't need to release this product, you can select Draft to hide it on the list
- 4.Is Approved: this option for admin, in the case the product is not valid, he can disable it
- 5.This is a featured product: tick into the box if you want to set it as the featured
Note: Virtual products don’t require shipping — an order with virtual products won’t calculate shipping costs.
Product Type:
- Simple – covers the vast majority of any products you may sell. Simple products are shipped and have no options. For example, a book.
- Virtual – one that doesn’t require shipping. For example, a service. Enabling this, disables all shipping related fields such as shipping dimensions. A virtual product will also not trigger the shipping calculator in the cart and checkout.
- External – one that you list and describe on your website but is sold elsewhere. Variable – a product with variations, each of which may have a different SKU, price, stock option, etc. For example, a t-shirt is available in different colours and/or sizes.
SKU, or Stock Keeping Unit number, is a unique number assigned to a product for, amongst other things, the purpose of keeping track of inventory, accepting up to 255 characters, which can include alphanumeric values and some special characters
Create a simple Product:
After adding a new Product, we need to set the Product Type > Simple Product:
Pricing section:
- 1.Regular Price – Item’s normal/regular price
- 2.Origin Price (Optional) – it must be greater than the price
The inventory section allows you to manage stock for the product individually. It enables you to sell products and allows customers to add them to the cart to buy.
SKU: which can include alphanumeric values and some special characters
Stock status: select in stock or out stock.
Attributes section:
On the Attributes tab, you can assign details to a product. You will see a select box containing global attribute sets you created
Create a Variable Pro:
To create a Variable product, Product Type > Variable Product:
Do the same with the simple product, add the Pricing section + Inventory section + Attribute section.
On this type, we have a Variations section to set up the product:
With Variable products, you can add variation by pressing to "Go" button
Create an External Pro
After adding a new Product, we need to set the Product Type > External Product:
Pricing section:
- 1.Regular Price – Item’s normal/regular price
- 2.Origin Price (Optional) – it must be greater than the price
External section:
- External URL: The Product URL field is the destination where users can purchase this product.
- Button text: lets you change the normal Add to cart button text to your preferred text.
SKU: which can include alphanumeric values and some special characters
Attributes section:
On the Attributes tab, you can assign details to a product. You will see a select box containing global attribute sets you created
