Here are the various pieces, along with their settings:

A: Like the other modules, you enter a new item on the top line. Enter a product description. You should make this as short as possible, like SS TSHIRT, LS TSHIRT, etc. Group like product together whose only differentiation is color and size. (If you price your Y size shirt differently, you will have to set those up as different product, though.)

Populate the sizes by separating with a comma, like XL,L,M,S,XS They will appear on the menu in the order you place them.

Populate the colors by separately with a comma. USE SINGLE WORD COLORS and ONLY ALPHA CHARACTERS, like BLACK,WHITE,YELLOW,PURPLE,GREEN All caps is best, they will also appear in the order you enter them.

Enter the pre-order price and the on-field price. They may be the same. By default, the product will be visible. Click Add. The product will drop down into the list. Continue adding all the products until you are done.

B: Upload your graphic by clicking the upload icon (max: 450px wide. If you need help with this, please ask first!)

C: If you need to edit the item element, make the changes directly on the line and …

D: click the Update button. Only update one item at a time. Delete will make the item drop out of your store, so if you only want to make it invisible, check the Vis. checkbox and Update instead! If you Delete and decide you want it back, you will have to reenter the item.

Open a new window to the public side of your site and make sure your items appear correctly. You will have to turn on the store temporarily in the Website Maint Module by toggling the Display T-Shirt Button to “Display” and making sure your deadline is some time in the future. Toggle it back off when you are done checking the store set up.
