How to add or edit products in Shopify?

IMPORTANT: Before adding or editing product, if you are using Vinoshipper as your compliance partner, you should only add and delete products via Vinoshipper. If you delete products on Shopify, they will reappear when your products sync.

You can add or update information about a product such as its price, variants, and availability from the Products page in your Shopify admin.

If you want to save specialized information or files for your products, then you can add custom fields to your product pages by using metafields. If you have an Online Store 2.0 theme, then you can add references to your product Metafields through the theme editor.

Add a new product

1. From your Shopify admin, go to Products.
2. From the Products page, click Add product.
3. Enter a title for your product, along with additional details.
4. Click Save.

Duplicate a product

To save time when you add a new product, you can duplicate a similar product. If you want to add options to an existing product, such as color or size, then add a variant to the product instead of duplicating the product.

When you choose to duplicate an existing product, you have the option to make the following adjustments before creating the duplicate: * Set a new title. * Set the product status to active or draft. * Select which other product details to duplicate from a specific set of options.

1. From your Shopify admin, go to Products.
2. Click the name of the product that you want to duplicate.
3. Click Duplicate.
4. Enter a title for the duplicate product.
5. Optional: Select which product details to duplicate.
6. Optional: Set the product status to active to publish the product on all sales channels, or keep the product status as draft.
7. Click Duplicate product.

Edit a product

After you've created products, you can edit them to change their descriptions, prices, and any other product details.

Although you can change your product details at any time, the changes can affect your reports. For information on how the changes can affect your reports, view Changes to product details.

Saved changes take effect immediately in your online store. Before you update a product, you can check the top of the page to check if another staff might also be making changes to the same product.

1. From your Shopify admin, go to Products.
2. Click the name of the product that you want to change.
3. Modify the product details.
4. Click Save.

Delete a product

You can delete a single product, or delete multiple products at the same time using a bulk action. When you delete a product, it's permanently removed from Shopify. Deleted products can't be restored. If you run out of stock or no longer want to display a product for any reason, but don’t want to permanently delete it from your store, then you can archive the product instead.

To permanently delete a product:

1. From your Shopify admin, go to Products.
2. Click the product that you want to delete.
3. On the product details page, click Delete product.
4. Click Delete product.
