2. Click the product row to open the detail view.
3. Click the Edit button.
4. Modify the desired fields.
5. Click Save Changes.

How to Delete a Product

1. Open the product detail view.
2. Click the options menu (three dots).
3. Select Delete.
4. Confirm the deletion in the dialog.

Warning: Deleting a product is permanent. If the product has associated orders, consider archiving it instead to preserve historical data.

Product Status

Each product has one of three statuses:

Changing Product Status

1. Open the product detail view.
2. Click the status badge or the Edit button.
3. Select the new status.
4. Click Save.

Transitioning from Active to Archived will remove the product from customer-facing pages. Existing active orders for the product will continue to completion.

Marking a Product as Popular

Featured products appear prominently on the customer-facing storefront.

1. Open the product detail view.
2. Toggle the Popular switch to on.
3. Click Save.

Only Active products can be marked as popular. There is no limit to the number of popular products, but keeping the selection focused (3-5 products) provides the best customer experience.

Best Practices

• Use Draft status for products that are not yet finalized. This lets you prepare the catalog without exposing incomplete listings.
• Consistent naming -- Follow a naming convention like "[Category] [Tier] [Spec]" (e.g., "VPS Standard 4vCPU") for easy identification.
• SKU conventions -- Use meaningful SKUs like VPS-STD-4C8G (VPS Standard, 4 CPU, 8GB RAM) for quick reference.
• Archive instead of delete -- When retiring products, archive them to maintain order history integrity.
