Edit Product & Advanced Configuration

Menu Path: Catalog > Products > Edit

Once a product is created, clicking the "Edit" button from the Products List opens a comprehensive configuration interface organized by tabs. This is where you unlock the full potential of your catalog management.

1. Pricing Configuration Tab​

Set how much the product costs and handle tax implications.

  • Base Price: The standard retail price of the product.
  • Discounted Price (Sale Price): If you are running a specific promotion without using the Campaigns module, enter the lower price here. The frontend will display the base price crossed out.
  • Tax Rate: Select the applicable VAT or sales tax percentage. Determine if the entered base price is Tax Inclusive or Tax Exclusive (based on your Workspace settings).
  • Cost Price: (Internal use) Track how much the item costs you to calculate profit margins in reports.

2. Attributes Tab​

Attributes define the technical specifications and features of a product. They are often used for frontend filtering (e.g., filtering laptops by RAM size).

  • Adding an Attribute: Click "Add Attribute". Select the Attribute Key (e.g., Material) and define the Value (e.g., 100% Cotton).
  • Visibility: You can choose whether an attribute is displayed publicly on the product page or kept internal.

3. Variants (Options) Tab​

If your product comes in multiple options (like a t-shirt available in S, M, L and Red, Blue), you must define variants.

  1. Define Option Types: First, create the Option Types (e.g., "Size", "Color").
  2. Assign Values: For "Size", add values "S", "M", "L". For "Color", add "Red", "Blue".
  3. Generate Variants: The system will automatically generate a matrix of sub-products (e.g., "Red-S", "Blue-M").
  4. Variant Specifics: For each generated variant row, you can define a unique SKU, independent stock quantity, specific pricing (e.g., XL costs $5 more), and assign a specific variant image (the image switches when the customer selects "Red").

4. SEO & Meta Tags Tab​

Optimize how search engines index your product page.

  • Slug (URL Path): Automatically generated from the product name, but can be manually overridden to be shorter or keyword-rich (e.g., /mens-cotton-tshirt).
  • Meta Title: The title displayed on the browser tab and Google search results (Recommended: 50-60 characters).
  • Meta Description: A compelling summary that encourages users to click the link in search results (Recommended: 150-160 characters).

5. Related Products & Cross-Sells​

Boost your average order value by recommending other items.

  • Upsells: Recommend more expensive alternatives to the current product.
  • Cross-sells: Recommend complementary items (e.g., suggesting a phone case on a smartphone product page). Search and select products directly from the catalog to link them.

Save Frequently: Always ensure you click "Save Changes" at the bottom of the screen before navigating away from the edit interface.
