This is my first store. All I have is one product that I added as a draft but I cannot add it to my online store. I don’t want to make it active yet but I do want to see it on my end (not the public yet). I’m trying to get it in a specific box. I was able to change the text above that box to ‘T-Shirt available’ but I cannot change the text ‘Example product title’ or the price below the box nor add the product into the box. I provided screenshots
Thank You
Hi, @UNITELIKEminded .
Welcome to Shopify and hope you’re enjoying the platform so far!
Have you had a chance to browse through our Shopify Store Checklist? This checklist can help make the set up process a lot easier and ensure you’ve completed each area of your store before launching.
The product you mentioned that is set to Draft will not be available to add to your Online Store or Sales Channels. You’ll need to set the product status to Active in order to view it on your online store and add it to sections within your theme editor. You can check out our help center resource on Product details for more information.
A workaround would be to either keep the product status set to Draft and preview it from your Shopify admin > Products page, hover over the product and click the small eye icon to preview within the Online Store.
A second option is to make your store password protected so customers will not be able to access your store and then set your product status to Active. Once set to Active you’ll be able to add the specific product into the Example product title box. It will automatically update the text and pricing to reflect what you have set for this specific product.
I’d also love to hear how you started your apparel business and if you design the clothing yourself?
