HOW TO ADD PRODUCTS TO SHOPS
Must be done on a Computer, not phone or tablet.
Open the desired shop by clicking on the shop under the Shops folder (i.e. Shop Hedgehogs).
Open the first product that has a quantity of 1 (not a sold-out animal) by double-clicking on the first animal on the list. We will duplicate this product in order to retain the template and policies listed under the product.
Duplicate this product by clicking on the Duplicate icon on the upper right of the screen, just to the left of the “SAVE” button. The Duplicate icon looks like one square overlapping another square. A copy of that product will open to allow editing.
Delete the photos on the duplicate by clicking on the 3 dots (…) in the upper right of each photo, then “DELETE”. Repeat until there are no photos left.
Update the information on the template to match that of the new animal being listed:
Update the Product Name (animal name, price) and the Description (fields here depends on the species, usually sex, color, birth date, ready date, etc.) using the information provided on the animals to be listed.
Click on “Organization” on the left-hand navigation bar. Update the Category (“Male” or “Female”) if necessary by clicking on the 3 dots next to the existing category and choosing “REMOVE”. Click on “Search existing categories” to add the correct sex category.
Click on “Marketing” on the left-hand navigation bar. Under “SEO and URL”, click “EDIT”. Replace the URL slug (or the last part of the URL) with just the animal’s name. Click “APPLY”.
If you have more animals to add, then click on the Duplicate icon and choose “SAVE AND DUPLICATE” to save this product and open up another duplicate template. The new duplicate template will not have any photos, so you will not have to remove photos for every duplicate. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until you have finished adding drafts for all new animals. Then end with step 7 on the last animal. Report to Mimi so that she can add photos.
If this is the only or the last animal you are adding, then hover over the “SAVE” on the upper-right corner of the screen and choose “Save draft”. This will save the draft and close it, returning you to the store page. You must refresh the store page and scroll to the bottom of the product list in order to view and check over your new entries.
