Inventory Tracking
Fanaura syncs inventory levels from Shopify so you can monitor stock at a glance:Total Inventory
The sum of all variant inventory quantities. If a product has three sizes with 10, 15, and 8 units respectively, the total inventory shows 33.Low Stock Indicators
When inventory drops below a threshold, Fanaura highlights the product with a low-stock warning. This helps you catch items that are about to sell out before they actually do.Out of Stock
Products with zero inventory across all variants are flagged as out of stock. You may want to hide these from your smart link page using the visibility toggle.Tip: Check your inventory levels in Fanaura before launching a promotional campaign. Nothing kills momentum like promoting a product that is sold out.
Visibility Toggle
The visibility toggle is one of the most important controls for your merch catalog. It determines whether a product appears on your public smart link page.How to Toggle
Each product has a green/gray toggle switch on the right side of its row:- Green (on): The product is visible on your smart link page. Fans can see and click through to buy it.
- Gray (off): The product is hidden from your smart link page. It still exists in your Fanaura dashboard but fans cannot see it.
When to Hide Products
- Seasonal items: Hide winter merch during summer, holiday items after the season.
- Out of stock: Hide products that have sold out to avoid fan frustration.
- Upcoming launches: Keep new products hidden until you are ready to promote them.
- Low-priority items: If you have a large catalog, show only your best sellers or newest items to keep the page focused.
- Discontinued items: Hide items you no longer sell but that are still in your Shopify catalog.
Default Visibility
All synced products default to visible when first imported. This means they appear on your smart link page immediately after syncing. If you want to curate what fans see, go through your product list and hide items you do not want shown.Drag-to-Reorder
Control the order products appear on your smart link page:- Switch to List View (reordering works in list view).
- Grab the drag handle (six-dot grip icon) on the left side of any product row.
- Drag the product up or down.
- Release to save the new position.
Tip: Put your bestsellers and newest items at the top. Fans are most likely to engage with the first few products they see.

Your merch products appear on your artist smart link page alongside your music, tours, and extras. When a fan visits your page:- They scroll to the Merch section.

- They complete the purchase on Shopify.
The Fan Experience
The merch section on your smart link page is designed to feel like a mini storefront:- Products display in an attractive grid or list (depending on the smart link page design).
- Each product shows its featured image, title, and price.
- Clicking a product opens the Shopify product page where fans can select variants, add to cart, and check out.
Merch Analytics
Fanaura tracks engagement with your merch products:Views

Managing Visibility in Bulk
Currently, visibility toggles are managed per-product. For large catalogs, work through your list systematically — start by hiding everything, then enable only the products you want to feature.Working with the Fanaura Sales Channel
Remember that only products published to the Fanaura sales channel in Shopify will sync to Fanaura. This gives you an additional layer of control:| Control | Where | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Sales channel publishing | Shopify admin | Controls whether a product syncs to Fanaura at all |
| Visibility toggle | Fanaura | Controls whether a synced product appears on your smart link page |
- Unpublish from the Fanaura channel in Shopify to completely remove a product from Fanaura.
- Use the visibility toggle in Fanaura for quick show/hide on your smart link page without changing Shopify settings.
