All things Shopify and commerce
I need to be able to have certain SKUs available in Shopify, since they are navigable from landing pages we have in a 3rd party system (influencers), but I don't want people to be able to access them through the "/collections/bundles" page.
First you can tag your bundles with something like "bundle-product", then create a copy of your collection page and update the filtering of the items to not display if product bundle contains "bundle-product" on the forloop.
Somthing like this.
{% for product in collection.products %}
{% if product.tags contains 'bundle-product' %}
{% comment %}leave it blank here because you dont want to show them{% endcomment %}
{% else %}
{% comment %}continue your normal collection loop info here{% endcomment %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
Hmm, I am not sure what you mean by creating a copy of a collection page. I am also not sure which file the products are in. I see them in a few files. I have only been coding in Liquid for 1 week but I have to complete this task for work. Imposter syndrome in full effect here... So much on the line it is stressful.
Hi @BeWater ,
I know it could be stressful, if you want some professional help I could do it for you.
My email is on my profile, send me a message and we can discuss the minors of it.

Hi @BeWater ,
The change you are in need, isn't a simple Shopify configuration.
There are a few ways of implementing it.
Hope this helps to clarify
Hi, @BeWater
That's a great question. Thanks for posting!
If you want influencer's to be able to order the product from you, but not the general public, simply not adding this product to your live collections will prevent that. This way, the product is technically available in your online store, however only via direct link. Once you create this product in your Shopify admin, you will see the URL at the bottom of the product page and be able to provide that to influencers for purchase.
I hope that helps! In the meantime, are you using an affiliate program for the influencers you work with? If not, I recommend checking out Shopify Collabs. It's a great way to connect and expand your influencer outreach.
Thank you for replying Skye, however I am unable to add products. I am only able to hide what already exists. Do you know of a way to remove items from collections while having them still be buyable with a direct URL?
Absolutely!
Simply open the collection in your Shopify Admin and via Products > Collections. If it is a manual collection you can select the X to remove it from the collection. If your collection is Automatic, then remove the tag, or identifying feature that is used to associate it with the collection.
This will still keep the product available to purchase via the product's direct URL, however, remove it from the collection.
It is an automatic collection. And when I remove all tags, the products still display in "all" products.
So I created a condition in the 'all' products collection that checks the "type", and then I created a "type" titled "Hidden" so whatever I want hidden from the store but still buyable, I just add the "type" titled "Hidden".
I do not know if this is industry standard, but I completed the ticket and the other devs have not said anything. 🙂
Rather than having to do this, is there a way just to have each product as URL only? Amending for all collections is not realistic due to the way I have to create the rules for these collections (e.g. some collections are only set as 'does not contain' which means I cannot exclude an individual product.
