Under the “E-Store” heading, the second link is for the Products section. Here you can add, edit and remove products (including downloadables and other intangibles like services) from your store. Items can be edited individually or in groups.

This is a basic product entry page. The item’s name, description, images, price and other details are entered here and it can be placed in one of the categories you’ve already created. If you forgot to create a category, you can still finish adding and saving this product, then go make the category and return to add the product to it.

After clicking on continue (2.62 has a slightly different process), you have the option to add product options (such as size or color, as well as text fields that the customer can enter personalization information, such as a name or birthday…the possibilities are nearly endless)… this process is made even easier with a attribute wizard.

If you have no options to add, just click on continue. The next page gives you the option to add inventory if you only have a few of any item, and select other items this product might be related to. Clients have the option of showing the “related items” on the product pages to help boost visibility and sales. If neither of these options are needed, just click on continue.

v2.62 also has a one page “quick inventory update” which can come in handy for clients who also sell their products in person and need to modify the available inventory quickly.
