I am 12 physical products into setting up my store. I have made all the products as pages, with a 1/2 dozen categories, with products under them.
However, I can’t put tags on the page, so should I be putting products as pages or posts?
What are other people doing?
Site is: http://www.gadget-gizmo.com and with this many categories, if I add any more, they start a 2nd row.
Am I laying out the pages correctly, or should I be doing it different?
Feedback and experience with what works for you is greatly appreciated.
H Ivy:
I set up a page that I am using as a “category”. For example all the toys will have the “Toys” page as it’s parent.
Is this as good a way to go with a store vs. making them all posts and creating categories that way? If I add any more page “categories” i am out of room and roll over to the next row of tabs, making my site ugly.
So for an online store are you saying I might be better off making them posts?
How are other people here using the store, posts or pages for each item?
Any help is really appreciated.
Setting up pages with parent page is one way to go as the additional pages do not take up navigation menu space.
Remember you don’t have to have every page in the navigation menu either. You can have a store index page that has links to all the product pages like what I have on my site:
I use a mixure of post and pages.
In case you didn’t know… you can exclude any page from the navigation menu using a page exclude plugin too (this way you can create hundreds of pages without cluttering your navigation menu. Just list them in another page.
