How To Create Sub Collections in Shopify 2.0 - Start Doing This Now!

Perfect, thank you.

Thanks for the tutorial. If I'd known Shopify didn't have parent and child collections built in I'd never have signed up for it. Your tutorial is great but it's a sticking plaster solution for a feature that should be in the app from the start (not your fault, clearly something Shopify should have sorted out ages ago!)

thank you so much brother , i was looking for this since last two days

hey Ed
i am using the paid shopify theme where i am not finding "create template " option there pls guide me man

Ed this is crazy , since i created the collections lists, customers cannot see products its keep coming back to the collection list pages , this is horrible can you please HELP !!!!!

Can this be done on a normal page ? I want to have a page ALL COLLECTIONS and on that page i want to have many different COLLECTIONS with their SUBCOLLECTIONS?

Hi Ed,
Thank you so much for sharing some many great tutorials, it's really helpful for me, and I guess for a lot of small shopify business owner as well.

A question here for you, I am using the " Impulse" theme, and after I create the collection list on the front page, it also shows on every single page (pagination pages). is there a way for me to just let the sub-collection list on the first page only?

Thank You!

This sadly doesn't work for me. It keeps changing to other pages.
I figured out its bcs I am not 'live' (the theme is not published like yours) but on 'draw' and then it does not work, which is very annoying bcs you don't want to publish a website for a company that's unfinished.
Do you have an other option than templates? Maybe pages?

I'd like to preface this question and mention the fact that I am clueless when it comes to shopify. I've managed to get all my sub-collections created but now I can't click on those sub-collections and see any products. How do I add my products to each sub-collection? For some reason one sub-collection has the completely wrong page linked to it and I have no clue how I've done that to even go back and fix it. Please help!

thank god for the speed up feature

Thank you sir.. This was giving me a headache trying to figure out forever. You rock

Thank you so much!

BRO, you are an absolute legend. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I GENUINELY APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT.

How did you get the code editor color to grey? Mine is black and I want to change it to white. Is it based on the theme colors?🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

you my friend are awesome. i was struggling to see how to create sub categories and your video provided the information in the most simpliest way. Welldone and thank you

I like your videos, they are helpful, not bloated with unnessesary talking. For me, until now number 1 shopify coach on YT.

Thanks! this helped a lot! Excactly what I searched, I had a problem with it.

Wow, this is super helpful. Thank you.

thank you so much

Really helpful tutorial

I'm using an old Ventura theme. It doesn't have a create a template option. Is there a workaround to achieve a subcollection effect?

Thanks mate,

I am struggling to add any products to the 'product grid' after the sub-collections. My product grid is empty! Do you have any advice?

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Subscribed and liked.

Thank you so much for this. So clearly explained!

Crazy! That's exactly what I was searching for. Very good video and understandable explanation. Thank you very much.

Hey, I followed the steps and i'm using the sense theme but it won't let me change the theme template on the collection. Could you possibly advise what to do please?

This content was exceedingly helpful. Thank you ever so much for sharing.

Hey,
Just interacted with your channel, and wanna say with that number of subscriber you are not delivering quality editing.
I am video editor and based on my experience i can tell you the way you are presenting content is not much engaging. And in this saturated market you have to ahead everything if you wanna beat your competition also to grow your business.
As a professional i can help you in this section.

H!, If i want that collection list to load automatically using the value contained collection level meta field to load for example all the collections named after the value stored in their country metafield is that possible?

So we recently switched to Daawn from Responsive, where I had coded in sub-collections. I've gone through all these steps, but the products won't show up on the subcollection page. I know I'm missing something minor, but any insights?

Can this been done if a legacy theme (not 2.0) is active. I'm trying to design new (2.0) theme while leaving the legacy theme active...don't think I'm able to assign templates. Thank you!

Hey Ed, thanks for this! Is creating a separate template for each unique parent collection the only way to handle this, or could we do a single parent collection template and then select subcollections for each instance via metafields, or something along those lines?

Hi, do you know if you can create new collections inside sub-collections?

Hey ED is it possible easily to have a main collection like t-shirt and some filters : color, matter… and the possibility to custom the différents titles, content (description) of the filtered page ?

So if you started carrying boys hats, you'd have to (1) create a collection for boys hats and (2) add the collection of boys hats to the boys collection template? And you have to do that for every new "sub" category for every parent collection? This seems like a weird amount of extra steps on Shopify's part.

Would there be any way to automatically pull in the "subcollections" by saying "collection name begins with BOYS"?

This had me stumped for a while and you made it easy. Thanks!

lets take a guess how many times this guys says collection in this video good god

Too many unexplained jumps - such as from collections page to edit - you don't show what you clicked on to move from your collections URL to the ability to then create the templates - a new page just appears. There was nothing showing on my page that I could click to make an equivalent jump and so this was useless to me.

At 0.57 & 3.23 I could see the "Unavailable on buy button" under the Boys collection... was curious what that was, how you did it, and what is the purpose of it??

This is amazing! I have been searching on how to to do sub categories! Just subbed! 😁 You made my day and made my website look just the way I wanted.

Very helpful video. I was feeling very lost and not making progress searching the Shopify support articles. They were not helpful. I watched your video and made massive progress setting up pages that work like parent collections. I'm switching from WooCommerce and the way Shopify handles this is just a different way to do it. Not necessarily bad, just different and a learning curve. But I'm already liking Shopify 100x more than WooCommerce & WordPress. Thanks for your easy to follow video - I appreciate it!

I'm using superstore theme by out of the sandbox and there is nothing on section while going through default collection.
and i was wondering to know about how to make separate theme layout for women and men. for instance kylie cosmetic (they made kylie,kylie cosmetic, kylie baby within one website but in different layout), another example is fashion nova they made women and men category in different layout but within one website. How is it possible? please let me know

Thank you so much for your channel, absolutely love the way you teach. On the Dawn theme, on collections, is it possible to get rid of the text name of the collection? So only the image is there, and it is the link?

Would be cool if we could specify from what collections the products in the product grid were in. Love your content!

I'm having trouble in adding items to my sub category can you make a video showing this please.

Thanks, Ed! Exactly what I needed to know.

Hi I done have the option for 'create template' in my Shopify under collections for some reason?

Thankyou for this! However how do u make the only collections to show as “girls” and “boys” on the main product list… then have the other collections appear inside of them… i am not knowing how to have the first collections “boy and girl” to appear alone without the other collections showing at once

Brilliant. Thank you!
