Edit and group description for product variants

A product description brings out the features and benefits of the item. It’s also considered as a marketing method that explains what makes it stand out from others and why it’s worth purchasing. Please visit this article to learn more about product's description.

In campaigns with many products with different descriptions, you can now choose to show either all base product descriptions, or the base product description of selected products, in addition to a general description for the entire campaign. In this article, we will guide you on how to edit general description and base product description for your POD campaigns.

If a campaign is duplicated or bulk duplicated, the new campaign will not have any description; regardless of the Product description setting.

2. For campaigns launched after October 25, 2021:
