Last updated on January 11, 2023 @ 8:27 pm

Shopify is one of the most popular ecommerce platforms on the internet. If you’re thinking about opening an online store, Shopify is a great option.

One thing you’ll need to do when setting up your Shopify store is to add your collections. In this article, we’ll show you how to add collections to your Shopify store.

To get started, log in to your Shopify account and go to the Collections page. On this page, you’ll see a list of all the collections in your store. To add a new collection, click on the Add collection button.

On the Add collection page, you’ll need to enter a name for your collection and select a few settings. The first setting is the Collection type.

This setting determines how products are added to the collection. There are three options:

  • Automatically: This option will add all products that match the criteria you specify to the collection. For example, you could create a collection of all products that are on sale.

  • Manually: With this option, you’ll need to manually add products to the collection.
    This is useful if you want to create a curated selection of products.

  • Disabled: This setting will disable the collection. Products will not be added to it automatically, and you’ll need to manually add products if you want them to appear in the collection.

After you’ve selected a Collection type, there are a few more settings you can configure. These settings include:

    Image: This is the image that will be displayed on the collection page. Click on the “Choose image” button to upload an image from your computer.

    Sort order: This setting determines how products are sorted on the collection page.
    The options are “Best selling,” “Alphabetical,” “Price: Ascending,” and “Price: Descending.”

    “Product variants”: If your products have variants (such as different sizes or colors), you can choose which variants will be displayed on the collection page.
    “Tags”: You can add tags to help organize your collections.

    Once you’ve configured these settings, click on the “Save collection”. Your new collection will now appear on the “Collections”.

    To add products to your new collection, click on the “Add product”. button.

    On the “Add product”, page select the product you want to add from the dropdown menu and then click on the “Add product”. The product will now appear in your new collection.

That’s all there is to it! Adding collections to your Shopify store is easy and only takes a few minutes.

Now that you know how easy it is to add collections to Shopify, why not give it a try? Log in to your Shopify account and start adding collections today!

PRO TIP: If you are planning on using Shopify to show collections of items, be aware that there are some potential risks. First and foremost, Shopify is a hosted platform, which means that your site will be subject to the terms and conditions of Shopify’s hosting agreement. This means that if you violate any of Shopify’s policies, your site could be taken down without notice. Additionally, because Shopify is a hosted platform, you will not have access to the source code of your site. This means that if you want to make any changes or customization to your site, you will need to use Shopify’s built-in tools or hire a Shopify Expert.
