You can group your products into collections to make it easier for customers to find them by category. Here are a few examples of collections that you might create:
-
products for men, women, or children
-
items of a certain type, such as bridal gowns or bridesmaid dresses
-
items on sale
-
items in a certain size or color
-
seasonal products
After you create a collection, it can be shown on your online store as a webpage with a gallery of the products that are in the collection. Your customers can then click a product image on the collection page to visit a specific product's page. You can help customers find and view collections by adding links to the collections in a menu in your store's navigation.
You can view, create, and edit collections from the Layout > Collections page of your BridalLive E-commerce admin.
