Add Products To This Category

The Add Products link takes you to the search page where you can populate a category with products based on your search criteria. Note that you will be searching only from the merchants you have pre-selected as Your merchants and added to this store.

How to add products to a store

  1. After selecting a category within a store, go to Category > Add Products; you will be redirected to Datafeedr's database search interface.
  2. Enter search terms in the search box; click [Find].
  3. Add additional filters and/or search terms in order to refine your search.
  4. When you are satisfied with your search results, click [Save search].
  5. The Save Search Results dialog box will open, prompting you to name the search (optional) and add it to the selected category; you may change the action and/or category at this time if desided.
  6. Click Save; the dialog box will close and you will see a summary of your search subscription at the top of your search results page.

Note

By saving and naming your searches, you create Subscriptions. This is a useful feature for efficiently managing the products in your store as it eliminates the need to remember and redo your searches. You can edit your Subscriptions at any time.

The following types of searches are possible:

  • "and" operator ("foo and bar", "foo bar")
  • "or" operator ("foo or bar", "foo | bar")
  • "not" operator ("-bar", "not bar")
  • phrasal search (in double quotes). Phrasal searches are still subject of stopwords removal and stemming (for example, "New World Machine" also finds "New Worlds of Machines")
  • start operator("^"), for example product name="^bag" only finds products whose names start with "bag" or "bags"
  • quorum operator. e.g "blue suede rock climbing shoes"/2 - will find products that contain at least 2 from given 5 words.

Because there must be at least one "positive" alternative, the following searches do not work:

  • single negative search ("-foo")
  • OR search with a negative branch ("-foo | bar")
