Hello, I think my product url is to long.
I just want the following:
Sitename.com/Products/Product-Name
Now I have:
Sitename.com/Collections/CollectionName/Product/Product-Name
To much!! Can someone help me…
Topic summary
Main issue: A merchant wants to shorten product URLs from Sitename.com/collections/CollectionName/products/Product-Name to Sitename.com/products/Product-Name.
Key update: Shopify support confirms the URL structure cannot be changed or shortened. The platform does not allow customizing the default product URL path.
Redirects: URL redirects can be used when a page no longer exists or is hidden, but redirects do not alter the underlying URL structure. A reference to Shopify’s URL Redirects documentation is provided.
Impact: The merchant’s desired format is currently unsupported within Shopify’s standard routing.
Action taken: Feedback has been shared with Shopify’s developers for consideration in future improvements.
Status: No immediate solution; the request remains unresolved pending any future platform changes. Unanswered question: whether Shopify may introduce customizable URL structures later.
Hi @VeriVendi ,
Thank you for reaching out to the Community. I’m happy to provide some assistance with this request, to ensure it gets resolved.
While a URL has the ability to be redirected if the page no longer exists or has been hidden, you cannot shorten and/or change its structure.
As I can completely understand the impact of this, I have gone ahead and shared this information with our Developers. We are always looking for ways to improve the platform and appreciate the feedback. To learn more about URL’s, you can check out our URL Redirects document as it touches on this further.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.
