# Products

Sold-out products, Sale and New badges, and the low-stock notice.

**Theme settings → Products**

## Sold out

A sold-out product's card says **Sold out** where the price would be, so a shelf of products keeps one line.

* **Fade sold-out images** — on by default. Drains the colour from sold-out product pictures, so the colour on the page belongs to things people can buy.
* **Fade amount** — how much colour goes: 20 to 100%, 90% by default.

## Badges

Small tags on the corner of a product's picture in every folder, like the labels stuck on a floppy.

* **Sale badge** — on by default. A red **SALE** tag when a product has a compare-at price above its price (set on the product in Shopify).
* **New badge** — on by default. A blue **NEW** tag on a product for a set number of days after it's published (its **Published** date in Shopify — when it went on sale on your Online Store). After that it comes off by itself.
* **Counts as new for** — 14 days by default, 3 to 60. A store whose whole catalogue was just added will see NEW on everything at first; it settles as the days pass.
* **Your own badges** — on by default. Write any tag you like on a product — **LIMITED**, **EXCLUSIVE**, **PRE-ORDER** — and it shows on the product's picture in every folder and above its title in the product window, black on yellow.

### Adding your own badge, step by step

1. **Settings → Custom data → Products → Add definition.**
2. **Name:** Badge. Check that the **Namespace and key** reads `custom.badge` — it must be exactly that.
3. **Type:** **Single line text**. (For more than one badge on a product, tick **List of values**.)
4. Save.
5. Open a product, scroll to **Metafields**, type the badge — `LIMITED` — and save. Products with it empty show no badge of their own.

A sold-out product gets neither — the price row already says Sold out.

## Low stock

**Say "Only a few left" at or below** — 5 by default. In the product window, under the price, with 98's warning sign: *Only 3 left*. It follows the variant picker, and only shows for a variant whose stock Shopify tracks and won't oversell (**Track quantity** on, **Continue selling when out of stock** off, on the product's inventory). Set it to **0** to turn it off.
