Finding a sequence
Use the search bar at the top of the sequences list to search by product title or collection handle. You can also filter by sort order to narrow the list.Steps
- Go to Sequences and select the sequence you want to change.
- Update the name or sort order if needed.
- Add or remove products as needed.
- Drag to reorder the items.
- Add, update, or remove conditions in the Conditions section.
- Save.
Sequences created before collection scoping was removed keep their original collection scope when you edit them. The Collection column in the sequences list shows each sequence’s scope.
Editing conditions
You can update a sequence’s conditions at any time. After saving, Layers re-evaluates the conditions against all products in the group and updates the sequence status to Active or Draft accordingly. To remove all conditions from a sequence, clear every rule in the condition builder and save. The sequence will return to Active status immediately.Draft products
Draft (unpublished) products in a sequence are marked with a Draft badge so you can easily identify them. You can add or remove draft products just like active ones. Keep in mind that a sequence requires at least 2 active (published) products to appear on your storefront. If publishing status changes cause the active count to drop below 2, the sequence moves to Draft status automatically.Non-viewable products
If a product in the sequence is filtered out of your searchable catalog, it stays in the sequence and is marked with a red Not Viewable badge. This can happen when the product is hidden in Shopify, excluded by a tag filter, or otherwise removed from storefront results. This lets you keep the grouping intact in case the product becomes viewable again. While the badge is showing, the product is skipped in storefront results but the rest of the sequence continues to work normally. Remove the product from the sequence if it should no longer be part of the group.Product conflict detection
A product can only belong to one sequence per collection scope. New sequences apply to all collections, so a product can appear in only one of them. If you try to add a product that already exists in another sequence with the same scope, Layers displays an error message identifying the conflicting products. Remove the product from the other sequence first, then add it to the new one. Older sequences that were scoped to a specific collection keep their scope. The same product can still appear in a legacy collection-scoped sequence and an all-collections sequence without conflict.Sequence metrics
The Metrics tab on the edit page shows how often shoppers actually buy the products in a sequence together, based on order history from the last 30 or 90 days. Use it to check whether a sequence reflects real purchase behavior. Switch between the 30 days and 90 days windows at the top of the tab. Each window shows:- Orders — Total orders that contain at least one product from the sequence.
- Revenue — Revenue from those orders, attributed to the sequence’s members.
- Bought together — Orders that contain two or more products from the sequence, shown as a count and as a percentage of member orders. A high percentage means the products are true complements; a low percentage means shoppers tend to pick one.
- Strongest pair — The two members that appear together in the most orders in the selected window.
- Member split — A per-product breakdown of orders and revenue for each member, with a bar comparing each product to the top-selling member. A strongly lopsided split can indicate that one product is doing most of the work.
Deleting a sequence
- Go to Sequences and select the sequence you want to remove.
- Click Delete and confirm. The products are released and can be added to other sequences immediately.
