How to manage bulk quantity variant options in Debut Theme?

Hi there hope you are all well,

@Shopify_77 @AVADA @KetanKumar

Just had a quick question in regards to the shopify options and variants. Currently on the debut theme as our products are available in bulk and minimum order quantity is 100 - 150 we require a dropdown option for the different variants displayed on the website. (Please view the example here)

We have had a look and currently shopify is only offering options for size, material and colour etc there is no option for quantity. We have added our own option for quantity and then inserted all the different quantities accordingly however this is effecting google and google shopping as all the different variants are showing within google and the google merchant centre. Google is showing all the different prices for all the different variants rather than the price of just one, and this is becoming quite costly.

We have got in contact with shopify before and have been advised by the support team to view the following article however as this is quite complicated we just wanted to know if there is any other option or wether to consider another e commerce platform.

We have also viewed some apps however the display settings will not work perfectly with our store, if anyone could assist this would be much appreciated before we consider departing to another third party.

Many Thanks

There are many ways to achieve this.

Option 1: Create a supplement feed with two columns (id, excluded_destination)

Enter the ID’s for the variants you don’t want to list in Google Merchant Center, and in the excluded_destination column, add the value Shopping_ads

Option 2: Use feed rules, for example if the title contains the option value, and you know it has a number such as 100, 150

Then you can say, if title contains 100 set excluded destination to shopping ads

Option 3: In Google Ads, go to your campaign > product groups > and subdivide your products by item id, then add all your items, and exclude the ones you don’t want to show.

Option 4: You can use a better working data feed app with more functions, this app has the ability to exclude all variants: https://apps.shopify.com/multiple-google-shopping-feeds

Hi there

@EmmanuelFlossie @Shopify_77 @KetanKumar

Thank you soo much for your reply,

We have just tried this method we have removed all the variants from the merchant centre and selected the ones that we would like to show, however as the google merchant centre updates everyday the variants keep showing.

Is there a way to permanently remove the variants from the google merchant centre without having to remove them from the website.

Any sort of assistance would be appreciated.

Many Thanks

Yes, follow any of my options, to achieve your goals. All of them are different and the end result is the same. Just one will be more complex than the other.

If you want the easy route, then choose the app I recommended.
