Not sure how to open your site dashboard? See Site dashboard overview. Your products live in the site dashboard, not the account portal.
The Products list
Open Store → Products to see everything you sell in one list. Each row shows the product’s image, name, price, stock status, and its categories and tags. From here you can:- Search for a product by name.
- Filter the list by category or stock status to find items quickly.
- Open a product to edit it.
- Add a new product.
Simple vs. variable products
Before you add a product, decide which type it is. This choice controls whether the product has one price or several.Simple product
One item with one price and (optionally) one stock count. Best for things that don’t vary — a single book, one candle, a digital download.
Variable product
One product sold in several options — for example a T-shirt in small / medium / large and red / blue. Each combination can have its own price, stock, and image.
You can start with a simple product and switch it to variable later if you add options. Pick simple if your item has just one version.
Add your first product
Follow these steps to create and publish a product. You can save your work at any point and come back to finish later.1
Open Products and add a new one
In your site dashboard, go to Store → Products, then choose to add a new product. A blank product page opens.
2
Name your product
Enter a clear product name — the title customers see, such as Vanilla Soy Candle. Keep it short and descriptive.
3
Write a description
Add a description that explains what the product is, what’s included, and why someone would buy it. Most products have a longer main description and a short summary that appears near the price. Cover materials, size, care, or anything a buyer would ask.
4
Add images
Upload a main image for the product, and add more photos to a gallery so customers can see it from different angles. Use bright, well-lit photos on a clean background. You can pick images you’ve already uploaded from your Media library.
Clear, consistent images make your whole Store look more professional. Square photos usually display best.
5
Set the price
Enter the regular price in Egyptian pounds (EGP, ج.م). To run a discount, also set a sale price — the lower price customers pay while the item is on offer. Your Store shows the original price struck through next to the sale price.
6
Choose categories and tags
Assign the product to one or more categories (its main groups, like Candles) and add tags (keywords, like gift or handmade). These help customers browse and search your Store.
7
Set inventory and stock
Decide whether to track stock for this product. If you do, enter how many you have, and your Store updates the count as orders come in and marks the item out of stock when it runs out. If you don’t track stock, the product stays available.
8
Set up shipping (for physical items)
If the product is shipped, add its weight and dimensions so shipping can be calculated correctly. Skip this for digital or service products that aren’t delivered.
9
Add options (only for variable products)
If your product comes in different versions, add attributes such as Size and Color, then create the variations (combinations) customers choose from. See the Set up product variations section below.
10
Preview and publish
Use preview to see how the product looks to a customer. When it’s ready, publish it so it appears in your live Store. To finish later, save it as a draft instead — drafts aren’t visible to customers yet.
After publishing, open your live Store and find the product to confirm the name, price, images, and options all look right.
Set up product variations (size, color, and more)
A variable product lets one product page offer several options — for example a hoodie in three sizes and two colors. You build this in two parts: attributes (the options) and variations (the specific combinations).1
Add the attributes
On the product, open the attributes section and add an attribute such as Size, then list its values: Small, Medium, Large. Add a second attribute like Color with Red and Blue. Mark each attribute as used for variations.
2
Create the variations
Open the variations section and generate the combinations — for example Small / Red, Small / Blue, Medium / Red, and so on. You don’t have to keep every combination; remove any you don’t sell.
3
Set price and stock per variation
For each variation you can set its own price, sale price, stock, and image. For instance, the large size could cost a little more, and each color could show its own photo.
4
Save and publish
Save the product. On the live page, customers pick their options (size and color) and the price, image, and availability update to match their choice.
Attributes you’ll reuse across many products — like a standard size chart — can be set up once in Store → Attributes and then applied to any product. See Attributes.
Edit and organize your products
You can change a product at any time — your Store updates right away.- Edit a product — open it from the Products list, make your changes, and save. Updates to price, stock, or description appear immediately.
- Put a product on sale — add a sale price; remove it to end the offer.
- Hide a product temporarily — switch it back to draft to take it off your live Store without deleting it. Republish when you’re ready.
- Mark out of stock — set its stock to zero (or mark it out of stock) so customers can’t order it while you restock.
- Duplicate a product — copy a similar product to save time, then change just the details that differ.
- Delete a product — remove it permanently when you no longer sell it.

Tips for great product pages
What makes a good product photo?
What makes a good product photo?
Use natural light, a clean background, and show the product from a few angles. Add a photo that shows scale (the item in use or in hand) so customers know the real size. Consistent, square images keep your Store looking tidy.
How should I write the description?
How should I write the description?
Lead with the benefit, then list the details a buyer needs: size, materials, what’s included, and care instructions. Short paragraphs and bullet points are easier to read than one long block of text.
Simple or variable — which should I choose?
Simple or variable — which should I choose?
Use simple when the item has one version and one price. Use variable when the same product comes in options like size or color and you want one page where customers pick what they want.
Should I track stock?
Should I track stock?
Track stock if you have a limited quantity and want your Store to stop sales automatically when you sell out. Leave tracking off for made-to-order items, digital downloads, or services where you never run out.
How do I add a discount?
How do I add a discount?
Set a sale price lower than the regular price. Your Store shows the original price crossed out next to the new price. Remove the sale price to return to full price. For code-based discounts at checkout, use Coupons.
