Hi, I’d like to hide this product on my website without disabling it, as it’s an add-on available at checkout. Thank you, and I appreciate any assistance!
Topic summary
Goal: hide an add‑on product from the storefront while keeping it purchasable at checkout; alternatively, push it to the end of product listings.
Guidance so far:
- One reply says there’s no built‑in way to hide without disabling, but you can hide via theme code (Liquid, Shopify’s templating language) using a tag or product type; developer help recommended.
- After implementing hiding, the product disappeared from the storefront but also from the cart area where the merchant wants it selectable; they asked how to allow adding to cart while keeping it hidden.
Latest suggestion:
- Use the seo.hidden metafield to hide the product from onsite search and search engines, and manually exclude it from all collections, while keeping its Online Store sales channel active so it remains purchasable as an add‑on.
Open points / status:
- No confirmed solution yet for showing the add‑on in the cart area while it stays hidden elsewhere.
- The alternative request to move the product to the end of the storefront remains unanswered.
- Screenshots are important to understand the expected cart placement.
Hello @voodoowww123
Welcome to Shopify community.
Is it not possible to hide the product from store without disabling, but there is a workaround in code to hide the product from the site using a tag or product type. But it needs liquid knowledge. So if you are not good with it I would recommend you to seek help of a developer.
Happy to assist you!
Thanks
Thank you so much for your help! The product no longer appears on the storefront, but it’s also not visible in the cart for adding. Is there a way to keep it hidden on the store but still allow it to be added in the cart? I’d greatly appreciate any advice! (it should appear where the red circle is)
Alternatively, is it possible to move this product to the very end of the storefront so it doesn’t appear first? That might work better for what I’m trying to achieve. Thanks again for your help!
Hi @voodoowww123 ,
You can use the seo.hidden metafield to hide them from website search and search engines, and also manually exclude them from all your collections. Since this is an add-on, you’ll need to keep the products active in your Online Store for them to be purchasable.
