Welcome back! In this tutorial we will explain how to create and manage your store on Hoplix in a few simple steps. As a first step you will need to log into your personal panel and click on the top menu My Account.
Once on the left menu, click on Store and Create/Manage. Now you will see the management panel, you can enter the name chosen for the store and view the URL. Now you can click on Create Store.
Now you can view the various functions: open or close the store and start working on it by clicking on actions. From here you can delete or modify your store.
Main Settings
Well! You are now on the management panel. In this section you can insert your support e-mail for your customers, enter or register your domain if you don’t have it. You can choose the currency and the language of your store. We suggest at this stage to select force https. Clicking on Update Settings you will complete this first step.
Store Products
In this panel you can choose how to display your products in your store. As an example, by selecting Grunt Mug among your products, you can decide to make it appear on the home page or not, choose its priority level (from 0 to 10) and associate it with a collection or not. To do this action, you must have created collections in the Collections panel.
Collections
Creating a collection is easy. Enter its name in the Collection Name box and choose whether to make it a main collection or associate it with another collection. Once created, you can always modify or delete every single collection from this panel by clicking on Actions.
In this example, the new Grunt Mug collection becomes a sub-category of the Grunt Collection.
Pages
In this menu you can add new pages and give a title, description, content and image. An example of a page could be a blog or an “about us” presentation page.
