I would love it if we could get back-end functionality in collections

[Cat]

I know collections can be used in a variety of different ways, and some of that includes creating collections with products that aren't our own, so that may make this impossible, but it would be SUPER helpful if there was some way to get back-end functionality in collections of our own products. Like maybe if there was some link on the collection page that allowed you to open a back-end window displaying only your products from that collection or something like that? 

I tend to use collections rather than categories to organize my products/store, so it would be really great if I could get sales/views stats on all the products in a given collection so I could easily tell which designs are doing well, and focus on those when creating new colors etc. Thanks for considering it!

YES! I was thinking of suggesting this myself! It would be amazing to be able to see the stats right in the collection, so I could see how I want to arrange the collection, or which products I want to feature in the banner, etc.

I would like to be able to remove products directly from the collection page instead of having to switch to the product backend first, find the products, select them separately, and do the same thing within the add to the collection popup. It would also be handy if the popup wouldn't close every time after you've checked/unchecked one box (allow multiple selection at once).

Hey Creators,

We really appreciate your suggestions on collections here. These features sound very helpful so I'll pass these along to our team for review for you.

Thanks for sharing! 🙂

Great idea!  If we had back-end functionality we could see and edit which products are hidden while viewing the collections.  Many times there are important pieces to a collection hidden which need to be optimized.  As it is now if we are signed in, we see the product but have no idea that it is not visible to the customer.  Back-end functionality would show all the statistics which would include which products are hidden or need to be optimized.
