Building A Weebly Store Instructions

[Neospiro1]

Please can someone direct me to online resources for step-by-step instructions on how to construct a Weebly store.

1. I have tried creating category and product pages, but can't find where they go, as they are not listed amongst the pages in the Weebly editor.

2. I have tried dragging a category element onto a page and adding a product/item (what is the difference?) into the category element, but when submitted nothing happens. The space remains empty.

3. I have found some store options outside of the Weebly editor, on the account page. I have an item there, but for quantity it just states '-'. Is this because it is an item and not yet a product? How do I make it a product? Or if it is already a product, as well as an item, how can I add the quantity of 1?

4. Basically, all I want to do is to have a page with images of the products (singular artworks) with their titles, and both the title and image to be linked to an individual product page, where the artwork can be purchased directly through the website, or, in some cases, via an external link to a different website.

Can anyone help with these issues? Many thanks.

Hi @Neospiro

You have the right idea by using the Product or Category element in the editor. You will use either option to display the items and/or categories you created from the main dashboard.

If you are wanting to sell items through a third party link, though, you will need to use the Image and Text elements instead. This will allow you to create a link that redirects to third party page for purchase. 

As far as inventory goes, you would need to upgrade to the next highest plan. The plan you are currently on does not allow you to track inventory which is why you see the "-" with no option to edit.
