so here back in the WordPress dashboard
let's head over to products and then
let's click on add new we're going to
start off by giving our product a name
here I'm going to be selling a
buttondown tress called Ruby then we're
going to move on to the product
description now there are two different
descriptions for your product page
there's a product description and then
when we scroll down there's also the
product short description now the short
description is what will show up here
below the title and the price of your
product
the regular product description at which
is up here will show up below the
product so right here so I'm just going
to copy and paste that text from the
example page and paste that in here then
let's scroll down and go to the product
data now here are the different product
types we can choose that we have already
looked at so currently we have SIMPLE
product we can also choose a group
product external affiliate product or
variable product for now we're going to
stick to the simple product then we can
give our product a price so we can say
the regular price of this product is
$40 we can also add a sale price so this
is what I've done right here on the
example page here we can see the regular
price is set to $40 and the sale price
is set to $30 so let's do that here as
well let's add $30 for the sale price
let's move on to inventory
here you can add your skew identifier
which is just for you to keep track of
your products I'm going to leave this
empty for now then we can also track our
stock in woocommerce so we can tick this
option and then enter the quantity we
currently have in stock of this product
let's say we have 100 and then once
somebody purchases this product this
number will also go down and you can
track your inventory here in woocommerce
then you can allow back orders which
means means that when your stock hits
zero people would be still able to buy
that product if you choose allow or
allow but notify customer but if you
don't want people to be able to purchase
products once the stock hits zero you
want to take do not allow then let's go
to shipping here we can add the weight
of the product the dimensions and also a
specific shipping class this makes sense
if you want to charge your shipping
rates based on weight Dimensions or a
specific shipping class then here under
link products we can also add upsell
products or cross sell products and then
here attributes this is more for the
variable products so we're not going to
cover this for the simple product then
let's scroll down and also add our
product short description which again
will be visible right here below the
price so I'm just going to copy and
paste that into this field then let's
scroll back up and also look at the
right side here of the window and go to
product image here we can set the main
product image which will be shown on
your store and also as the main first
picture on the product page so here
let's just click on set product image
and then I'm just going to upload an
image I have prepared here and click on
set product image and then we can also
add product Gallery images these are the
images that will be shown down here that
people can just scrub through and check
out different angles of this product so
I'm just going to add one gallery image
and click on ADD product Gallery images
then upload my gallery image and click
on add to gallery and then we can scroll
further down and here we can also add
this product to one of our categories
currently we haven't any categories set
up yet but we can add them right here by
clicking on add new category now let's
create a category called addresses and
click on add new category and now we can
see that this product is already added
to to the addresses category and then
down here we can also add product tags
so we can add addresses here or we can
add something like summer just all the
tags that are relevant for this product
and now to publish this new product
we're just going to scroll up and click
on publish now the product has been
published on our store and we can look
at the product Page by clicking on the
product page link here or we can also
right click on view product open in a
new tab and then here we have our
product page this is the product image
here and we also have one gallery image
we have the price we have the name the
short description the amount in stock
and then also the main description down
here and here in the WordPress dashboard
