Removing Items from Collections Needs to be Easier

CloLee — Thu, 27 Jul 2023 06:12:14 GMT

I started a new collection and added lots of products. It was so boring and time consuming paging through to add them, that I forgot what the subject of the collection was and added some items in error. I believe the only way to remove these items from the collection is to go to the back end product page, find the offending product, click on action, and remove from there. This will take me ages and I think that there should be an easier way to remove products in the Edit Collection page. Thanks.

Hi @CloLee. You can delete them from the collection management page. Use the option 'Manage Custom -Ungrouped Product Sort' and then hover over any of the products to see the black, three dot icon in top right corner of the thumbnail. 'Remove from collection' is one of the options.

@CloLee

There is an easier way to remove products from your collection.

Go to your collection you want to remove products from - click edit

Hover over the top right of a product's image until three dots appear and click on the dots

A dropdown appears with Remove from Collection being a option

Hopefully that works for you

This did not work for me, I could not find an edit button, I found 3 dots and clicked, but did not do anything! Maybe it has a tech problem?? Thanks for your help, so frustrating!

Hi @Margielyn I’ve found the 3 dots to be unresponsive on my IPad, but work fine when using my computer. So I think there may be a tech issue if you’re clicking on them using an IPad.
