Product Catalogue

Adding an Item from Product Catalogue

Enabling Customers to Add Items via Your Product Catalogue

Customers can add items to your marketplace by selecting from a product catalogue sourced from your Shopify store. This allows them to list items they've purchased from you, even if the purchase wasn't made through your main store.


How It Works

The product catalogue that your customers interact with is synced directly from your Shopify store.

By default:

  • All products from your Shopify store are pulled into the catalogue.
  • These products appear as selectable options when a customer adds an item to the marketplace.
  • This means your full product range is instantly available for resale by your customers. No additional configuration required.


    Restricting the Catalogue (Optional)

    If you want to limit which products appear in the customer-facing catalogue, you can use the continue-catalogue product tag.

    Rules:

  • If no products in your Shopify store have the continue-catalogue tag, then all active products will be available in the catalogue.
  • If at least one product has the continue-catalogue tag, then only products with that tag will be included in the customer-facing catalogue.
  • This gives you fine-grained control over what customers can list, while keeping the system lightweight and flexible.


    How to Apply the Tag in Shopify

  • Open the product you want to include in your catalogue.
  • Scroll down to the Tags section.
  • Add the tag: continue-catalogue
  • Save the product.
  • Repeat this for each product you want to be customer-selectable on your marketplace. You can add tags in bulk to save time.


    Important Notes

  • Changes to tags or product status will automatically sync within a few minutes.
  • This catalogue is used when customers are listing pre-loved items; it’s separate from your excess stock configuration.
