Collections & schedules
Featured products
Pin products to the top of a collection in the order you choose, with optional start and end dates, random rotation and a limit.
Featured products are pinned to the very top of a collection, ahead of new arrivals, tags, rules and your sort order. Use them for hero products, launches, campaigns and seasonal picks. Featured products are part of every plan.
Add featured products
- On the Dashboard, open the collection.
- In Featured products, search for a product in the collection and add it.
- Add more products and drag them into the order you want — the first one is shown first.
- Save, then click Re-sort to apply the change straight away (otherwise it’s applied at the next sort, or within minutes with real-time re-sorting).
Featured products are set per collection, so a product can be featured in “Summer” without being featured in “All products”.
Note: A product only appears if it’s in the collection. If you remove it from the collection in Shopify, it isn’t shown there any more.
Start and end dates
Give a featured product a start date, an end date, or both:
- Before the start date, the product is ranked like any other product.
- After the end date, it’s removed from the featured list and the collection is re-sorted at its next sort (within minutes with real-time re-sorting).
Dates and times use your store’s time zone. This is ideal for launches (“feature from Friday 9 AM”) and promotions that should end on time.
Order of featured products
Choose how the featured products are ordered among themselves:
- Manual — the order you dragged them into (the default).
- Random — shuffled. Scheduled sorts reshuffle once a day; a manual re-sort reshuffles every time.
- By a sort order — for example Number of sales – high to low, so the best-selling featured product leads.
Show only some of them
Set a limit to show only that many featured products at a time. Combined with Random, the top spots rotate between all your featured products — a simple way to give several hero products a turn. Featured products that aren’t shown are ranked like any other product.
Sold-out featured products
Featured products stay on top even when they sell out, because you chose them. The recommendations list warns you when a featured product is sold out, so you can restock it or remove it.
