Add a product in WooCommerce

You have several windows available on the product embedding page. We will briefly describe what they are used for. For some of the features they offer, I will cover some of the windows in the following articles.

Add product – name and descriptions

You fill in these windows as follows:

Product name – fill in the product name in the first line of the page.

Long product description – in the window located just below the entered product name, enter a long product description. A long description of the product will be displayed on the e-shop page below the product image.

Short description – in addition to the long description of the product, the goods should also have a short description. To add a short product description, scroll down the page. This description will appear next to the product image on the store page.

When entering both long and short product descriptions, you can choose which editor you want to work in. You have a visual and text editor, similar to inserting a new article. I write more about working in these editors in the articles How to work in a WordPress visual editor and How to work in a text editor .

Product details

Between the windows for entering a long and a short product description, you will find the Product Data window. Here you will gradually set up all product data such as product type, price, tax, inventory management data, shipping, product links and other settings.

I describe all of them in detail in other articles about adding a product in WooCommerce.

Publish

On the Add Product page, you will find a publish window in the upper right corner of the page. The functions in this window are similar to the functions for adding a new article or page.

Here you set the status, visibility, publishing and visibility of the product in the catalog . In each line you have the option to set individual functions by clicking on the Edit link. I describe the individual functions in more detail in the article WooCommerce – adding a product to the site .

Categories and brands

You can categorize and brand all the products in your online store. Categories and brands will help better orient customers in the e-shop and will also help them in finding goods.

Product categories and brands

The difference between categories and tags is that categories can form a hierarchy. There is a certain connection between them in the hierarchy. For example, a T-shirt category may have a subcategory of short-sleeved T-shirts or women’s T-shirts and the like.

Tags (or tags) also describe the product. They differ from categories in that they do not have a hierarchy. I will also address categories and brands in the separate articles Product Categories in WooCommerce and How to Assign Brands to WooCommerce Products.

Product image and gallery

It is advisable to insert a picture for each item in WooCommerce . For a better preview of the product, you also have the option to insert a gallery of additional images. Product images are uploaded from the media library. The procedure is simple. We will describe it in more detail in the article how to add an image and an image gallery to the product .
