Preselected Products

A list of products you pick by hand, shown in shuffled order.

Written by Shashank Agrawal

Shows exactly the products you choose, and nothing else. No ranking, no recommendation logic, no rules — a hand-picked list.

Use it when the selection is an editorial or commercial decision rather than a data one: a launch, a sponsored placement, a hero product, a short campaign you want full control over.

What it does

Products

Search and pick products one by one. There is no limit beyond what the campaign can display.

The list is shuffled on each display, so the order you add products in is not the order they appear. Every product gets a turn in the first position rather than the same one always leading.

If a fixed order matters, use a Shopify collection with manual sorting and a Collection Products source instead.

Generic, locked. The list is the same for every visitor on every page.

No filter set runs. You have already made every selection decision by picking the products.

Good to know

  • Nothing keeps this list current. Products that sell out, get archived or are removed from Shopify stay in the source until you edit it — worth a check before reusing an old one.

  • Because it is identical for every visitor, it is the least personalised source available. It is a merchandising tool, not a recommendation one.

  • For a hand-picked list that maintains itself, keep the curation in a Shopify collection and use Collection Products.
