Products overview
From your Online Shop dashboard, click Products to open the Products overview. Here you can sort, add and delete products.
- Sort products - Click the menu in the top right corner to sort your products by low stock or categories.
- Delete products - Select a product by checking the box in front, and click Delete in the top right corner.
- Add products - Click the Add product button to add a new product. You need to select if you want to add a physical or a digital product. Check our guide to learn more about adding digital products.

Pricing & Quantity
Next, you need to set pricing and options for your product.

Note: When you specify options for a product, you need to set the weight, quantity and SKU for each option separately.
Search engines (Google)
To optimize your shop for search engines it's important that each product page has a unique descriptive URL and meta description.
- URL - Each product has a URL, so you can link to it directly from other pages. By default, the URL is based on the title of your product, but you can edit it here.
