Your Products list is where you maintain everything you sell. Search, filter by status or category, and act on any product.
Product statuses — and the “Hidden” gotcha
The list simplifies the three real statuses (DRAFT, ACTIVE, INACTIVE) into two chips:
| Chip in the list | Real status behind it | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Active | ACTIVE | Live and visible to buyers (once it has inventory) |
| Hidden | DRAFT or INACTIVE | Not shown to buyers. A brand-new draft and a manually-paused product look the same here — hover the chip or open the product detail page to see which it is. |
Seeing “Hidden” on a product you just created does not mean something went wrong — every new product is a draft and shows as Hidden until you add inventory.
What you can do
Hiding a product is reversible; deleting it is not. If you just want to pause sales, Hide rather than Delete.
Why buyers can’t see your product
Work through this checklist in order — it covers every gate between your product and the buyer:
- Store verified? Selling is blocked until verification is approved (
FORBIDDEN_UNVERIFIED_STORE, «أكمل توثيق المتجر قبل البيع.»). - Still a draft? A product with no inventory line is invisible. Add Inventory and choose a fulfillment model.
- Out of stock? With zero available quantity buyers can’t purchase. For FBF, stock only counts after warehouse receipt and activation.
- Visibility toggle off? Check the “Show product in store” toggle in the inventory details — see Visibility & Availability.
- Deactivated by administration? The Hidden chip tooltip reads “Product manually deactivated by administration” — open a support ticket to ask why and what to fix.
- Catalog identity rejected? If the linked catalog identity was
REJECTED, resolve it under Catalog → My Products.
Use the status and category filters to keep on top of drafts. A pile of drafts is sales you haven’t switched on yet.
