About Hide Collection ‑ VIP Presales

After hiding a selected collection, it can only be accessed by a secret URL, which you can share with your selected audience. This feature is useful for those wanting to run promotions, early access deals, or even a private group sale. Integration with Storefront Search makes it user-friendly. You can be confident that your secret collections remain hidden to Google search and the storefront but are searchable and purchasable like any other products once accessed by the secret URL.

Perfect for my needs. I have a few collections that I only use for sale specials. However, people could specifically search those sale terms and land on the sale collection. This app solved that problem. The collections are now hidden, and can now only be accessed with the "secret URL" this app generates. Thank you for an elegantly simple solution.

Hidden collection link works well when embedding on a mailout, but customers often get hidden error message when copy paste link for some reason? Also the items in the hidden collection are still searchable in store, so thats a bit useless, wish was a way to hide the items from store search.

Absolutely loved this app! Thank you for the free trial. Will definitely be using for my pre-orders every single year. Highly recommend for anyone with secret sales or private pre-orders. Having one dedicated collection link made it so easy to direct my customers to my private pre-sale.

Great App! Does exactly what we need it for! We searched for an export URL-Links which wasnt there. They just programmed it on a sunday - amazing!

*Edit*: This review was while the app had just launched and I've moved it to 5 stars. It works great! The team reached out to me and got it working for my premium theme and I'm quite pleased with their engagement, understanding, and enthusiasm. Very very pleased with this and I'm impressed with how this simple idea works so well. Definitely recommend this if you want a super-easy mechanism to offe...

do not install this app, I never write reviews but these guys are terrible. I tried to remove their app and found out you need to remove their code manually. I followed their instructions to the letter, and it deleted almost all of my home page, luckily I had a back up. I reached out to them for support and they have not replied, there are far too many app providers like this on Shopify these days...

This app is super glitchy and with over 1 month waiting for support nothing has improved. I share the vip link to a collection and then it doesn't work. This is beyond frustrating!

I am giving this one star but if I could I would give it a zero star. The customer service was appalling. I sent a few messages asking for assistance and not one person responded to my query. It didn't give me any confidence to use this app so I worked out another way to achieve what I wanted to achieve without using them. I would highly NOT recommend using this app.

Attention très compliquée à désinstaller, je n'avais plus l'affichage de mes articles et obligée de faire modifier le code du site car leur système de désinstallation ne fonctionnait pas.

Install with caution. This app was a huge headache to uninstall. Broke my theme, injects lots of code, no backups done by install. Developer's website has no support contact info. Poor experience overall.
