Products are the core of your Sellrn store. Each product has a title, description, images, price, and optional variants (like size or color). This guide walks you through creating your first product from scratch.

Step 1 — Open the Products page

Go to Dashboard → Products and click Add product in the top-right corner.

Step 2 — Fill in the basics

FieldNotes
TitleThe product name shown to customers. Keep it concise and descriptive (e.g. "Classic White Oxford Shirt").
DescriptionRich text editor with formatting, links, and bullet lists. This appears on the product detail page.
SlugAuto-generated from the title. Determines the product URL (e.g. /products/classic-white-oxford-shirt). You can edit it manually.

Step 3 — Add images

Click Add images in the media panel. You can upload multiple images; the first image becomes the main thumbnail. Drag images to reorder them. Recommended size: at least 1000 × 1000 px, square or portrait.

Step 4 — Set pricing

  • Price — the amount customers pay (in your store currency).
  • Compare-at price — optional original price shown as strikethrough to indicate a sale. Must be higher than Price.
  • Cost per item — optional for your records only; never shown to customers. Used to calculate profit margins in Analytics.

Step 5 — Track inventory

Toggle Track quantity to enable stock management. Enter the quantity on hand. When stock reaches zero, Sellrn marks the product as "Sold out" and hides the add-to-cart button by default (you can allow backorders in Settings).

Leave Track quantity off for products with unlimited stock (e.g. digital downloads, services, made-to-order items).

Step 6 — Organise with categories and tags

Assign the product to one or more categories (used for collection pages and navigation). Add tags for additional filtering (e.g. "summer", "sale", "new-arrival").

Step 7 — Publish

Set Status to Active and click Save. The product is immediately visible on your storefront. Set it to Draft if you are not ready to publish yet.
