Shopify Admin > Products > Collections needs some improvements

Hey,

 

I've been using Shopify since 2018. I've seen lots of updates and improvements, but Admin > Collections is basically the same as it was 6 years ago...

 

My points are coming from running a large catalog store, where collections play a crucial role in sales, and we have lots of them...

 

  • Manual collections are the most frustrating – it has a search, but you need to manually select 100+ results.
    • It would be great if we could have a "select all results" button. Merchants could also unselect a few if they want.

 

  • Not being able to switch from Manual to Smart and vice versa is another frustration – you need to delete the collection, copy the handle, create it again, preserve the handle, and add it again in the Theme editor and Menus.

 

  • Views – While products have so many options to create views, Collections have none (Type and Sales channel don’t count). When you have 200+ Collections, you need some type of management there...
    • Having something like Metafields to create collection views would be great...

 

These are my points about Admin > Collections. It would be awesome if someone from Shopify could read this and deliver it to the right team. These small improvements would help me and other merchants a lot.

 

Thanks
