Creating a custom product
For something the shared catalogue doesn't have — a bundle you made up, a second-hand box, a playmat, an hour at a table. You author all of it: the title, the picture, the price.
Check the catalogue first. If it's a card, a sealed box we hold, or an accessory we carry, add it from Catalogue instead — you get the artwork, the set, the rarity and a market price that maintains itself. Typing it in here gets you none of that, forever.
Field by field
| Field | What to put |
|---|---|
| Title | The only required field. What customers see. |
| Type | Sealed, accessory, gift card or booking. Just a label — nothing behaves differently because of it. It's there so your own products list can be filtered. |
| URL slug | The web address. Leave it blank and it's made from the title, which is almost always what you want. Lower-case letters, numbers and hyphens only. You are never refused for reusing one — if the address is taken, yours is made unique instead, so the product already sitting at that link (which somebody may have bookmarked) keeps it. Check the box after saving if the address matters to you. |
| Image | Optional, and addable later. |
| Active | Ticked by default. Untick to build it quietly and reveal it later. |
| Featured | Flags it for wherever your theme highlights products. |
| Sort order | Lower sorts earlier where products are listed by hand. Leave at 0 unless you're arranging something deliberately. |
Pre-order
Only if your plan includes it. A future release date turns the product into a pre-order — shoppers see a badge and the date. Add a cancellation fee if you want one, and tick Collection in store only for something you won't post.
Categories & filters
Where it appears when shoppers browse and filter. Tag it now or later; an untagged product is still findable by search and by its own link, it just won't show up under a category.
What happens when you save
You land on the product's own page, and it has no price and no stock — you create the thing here and stock it there. Until it has a variant, nobody can buy it, so a half-finished product does no harm.
