Managing Sales Channels, Publishing, Online vs Not OnLine is One of the Worst Parts of Shopify

Managing Sales Channels, Publishing, Online vs Not OnLine is One of the Worst Parts of Shopify

If I have an item in stock, I want it available in my store.

 

I am so tired of wrestling with making sure my items are published or not published.

 

I have a very large inventory and it can't be managed in what shopify calls the "bulk" editor.

 

I have tried flow, I have tried apps and I always seem to have items with inventory, that are active that are not available on my online store.  Meaning in the Publishing section of the product the "Online Store" box is not checked.

 

Shopify has a love of making things way more complicated than they need to be.

 

If people have some need to have inventory not show in their store, they should be the ones that need to use an app.

 

I feel like shopify is doing everything in their power to hurt my store, not help it.

 

I'm not new to shopify.  I have sold millions of items on shopify.

 

I have had my account for over 10 years.   I know every single in and out of this platform.

 

Of all their STUPID features, this could be the dumbest.

 

If I have an item that has more than 0, I want customers to see it.   Is this really that complicated?

 

Also why can't I set the products to only show me items that have inventory?   Why is there no setting for this?

 


This platform was great 10 years ago.    The new benefits do not come close to how they have made this platform worse.

 

This is the entire point.   Shopify creates problems that you need to solve with APPs.
