How to Hide the Product from the Shop Page

If you want to hide any product from the shop page, you can just change its status from ‘published’ to ‘draft’.

This way, It won’t appear to users on the shop page, but if you’ve set it as ‘purchasable’ in the previous settings, you can still send folks the direct link to buy it.

Let’s hide this product from the shop page.

  • Choose the necessary product and click on it through SureCart from your website (follow the same steps as in the previous instructions).

  • Click on Published from the Product Page option and select Draft.
