Auto-tagging and sale collections
DiscountPal auto-tags products while a campaign is active, so a Shopify smart collection built on that tag fills itself when the sale starts and empties when it ends.
Auto-tagging turns a Shopify smart collection into a self-updating sale page.
How to set up automated sale collections
- In your discount campaign settings page, find the 'add tag' section. Type a tag and press enter — e.g.
on-sale. This tag will be auto-added to all selected products while the campaign is active. - In Shopify, create a smart collection with the condition "Product tag equals = on-sale".
- Link to that collection from your navigation or homepage.
What happens during the campaign
When the campaign starts, DiscountPal adds the tag to every discounted product in the campaign, and the collection fills itself. When the campaign ends, the tag is removed and the collection empties — no manual curation needed.
Other uses for auto-tagging
You can use the auto-tag feature in many creative ways to help you with organising your discounted products and collections.
Not only can you add tags, you can also remove tags. This is great if you want to remove sale products from your main collections while they are discounted.
