Store Management How To

Add New Item

  1. Login to shopify.com
  2. Click on "Products" in the left-hand dashboard menu
  3. Click the blue "Add Product" button top right
  4. Fill out the product form fields: title, description, images, price, shipping weight
  5. Pay special attention to the right-hand column "Organization" box. The fields of "Product Type" and "Vendor." Vendor should be the brand and Product Type should be the Collection (e.g. SUP) you want the product to show up under. If you don't fill out the "Product Type" the new item won't show up anywhere on the site.

Note on Product Type: Product Type should exactly match the corresponding menu item. For example, if you're adding a snorkel and want it to show up under Spear Fishing > Masks & Snorkels you should make the Product Type "Masks & Snorkels" and it will then automatically show up there.

Note on formatting: I recommend referencing an existing product for product titles and description styles and wording just to keep consistency across the site (For example, the SUP line of boards lists the board size first in the title. It would be good to continue to use this nomenclature for surfboards too.).
