Available Collections lets you choose the Shopify collections customers can browse from collection category blocks during post-purchase product search.
The Available Collections page is still implemented, but the rebuilt App Settings navigation does not currently expose it. If your store does not show a link to Available Collections, contact Order Editing Support instead of following an older App Settings path. Navigation must be confirmed in the release UI before this article is approved for launch.
Tip: Enabling a collection adds it to collection browsing. Product search, recommendations, and other modules can still expose eligible products through their own configuration.
How it works
Order Editing pulls in all your Shopify collections and displays them in a table. Each collection shows its Title, Handle (the URL slug), and a Status toggle. You enable collections you want to promote in the category blocks during post-purchase editing.
When a customer is editing their order, enabled collections appear as browsable categories in the editing block. This gives customers a curated entry point into your catalog, steering them towards collections you want to push, while still allowing them to view all products through search and other upsell surfaces.
Manage available collections
The page shows public Shopify collections in a searchable table. Select rows and use Enable collections or Disable collections.
Column | Description |
|---|---|
Collection Title | The display name of the Shopify collection as it appears in your admin. |
Collection Handle | The URL-friendly slug for the collection (e.g. |
Status | Shows whether the collection is enabled for collection browsing. Use the table's bulk actions to change it. |
Use the search field to match collection titles or handles. Use the Status filter to show enabled, disabled, or both.
Best practices
Promote strategically. Don't enable every collection. Choose collections that drive the most post-purchase value, such as bestsellers, complementary product categories, or high-margin accessories.
Skip internal or test collections. Collections used for backend organization (like "Default" or test collections) shouldn't be promoted to customers.
Align with your upsell strategy. If you're running post-purchase upsell campaigns targeting specific product categories, promote those same collections here to give customers another way to discover the products you're pushing.
Review after adding new collections. When you create new Shopify collections, they'll appear in this list. Check back periodically to promote new collections as needed.
Example: A skincare brand enables "Bestsellers," "New Arrivals," and "Travel Size" as promoted collections. When a customer edits their order, these three collections appear as browsable categories in the editing block, steering customers towards products the merchant wants to push, while the full catalog remains accessible through search.
FAQ
Does disabling a collection hide those products from customers?
No. Disabling a collection here only removes it from the promoted category blocks. All products remain accessible through other upsell surfaces, product search, and recommendations. To fully hide products from all surfaces, use Hidden Products.
Are automated collections supported?
Yes, both manual and automated Shopify collections appear in the list. Automated collections update dynamically based on your Shopify rules, and Order Editing respects those updates in real time.
What happens if I don't promote any collections?
If no collections are promoted, customers won't see category blocks during editing. They can still discover products through other upsell surfaces and the product search.
Do new Shopify collections appear here automatically?
Yes, when you create a new collection in Shopify, it automatically appears in the list. New collections default to disabled, so you'll need to enable them manually if you want them promoted.
