I want to sellect a Badge for "New" items. How to create a new Badge?

I would like to flag new items added to the site with a badge tag that says "New Item".  I would like to turn this on by the item.  Not general sock items that I add every now and then.  Any ideas on how to do this?  I don't see under badge a way to add anything.  

Thanks in advance.

Hi @dculley85,


Thanks for your post, and welcome to the Community! It’s great to have you here. 


While it is possible to customise the design of your badges, they are pre-defined, so you won’t see badges on your website unless you have at least one item that either:

 

  • Has a sale price

  • Has an inventory count of your specified quantity or less

  • Is sold out

  • Is available for preorder

  • Is discounted


I can see why being able to highlight newly added items with a badge would be useful, so I’d encourage you to add the idea to our feature request board. Our product developers regularly review the feature request boards, with a view to improving the product for our Sellers.

Thank you for getting back to me.   I have sent the request to the "feature request board".

I totally agree this is needed. The existing badges are lame and not very marketing oriented. I would love to upvote your feature suggestion but the feature request board interface is so bad, I can't find it 😞
