<div id="editor2" class="ed" contenteditable="true">If your organization has a store and you want to market your products online through our website, you have to read this article.Through your account here you can add as many products as you want, manage their image gallery, add custom properties for each product, categorize them, control the products and categories order element by element, create discounts and manage discount dates and percentage. The only thing that you will not be able to here is to sell your products online. However, our developer's team is working at the moment to make this utility available on the next version.Please notice first that if your organization doesn't have at least one single product inside its store, this is how the toolbar at the top of the page will look like to the public:</div>

If you don't have at least 1 product, the products tab will not be visible for public

<div id="editor3" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> On the other side if you have at least 1 product, the Products tab will be visible to the public:</div>

<div id="editor4" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> And this is how the toolbar will see the Org. toolbar as an Organization admin:</div>

<div id="editor5" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> Now make sure that you are signed in to your account, and let's add the first product to your online store, to add any product you must click the Products tab first then click the Add Product button at the top of the page.</div>

<div id="editor6" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> As you might have noticed, there are two kinds of products, the regular one which may only be sold, and the equipment which could be sold or rent for a duration of time,now once you click the Add Product button the following page will appear:</div>

<div id="editor7" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> As you can see in the previous figure, the first thing you are asked to mention is the product's type, once you start typing an auto-list will appear, feel free to enter a brand new type outside of the context of the auto list in case your product's type does not appear.The next thing you will be asked to mention is the Product's name, once you start typing, another auto-list will appear with all the products within the particular product Type you have just mentioned (Flooring in our example). </div>

<div id="editor8" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> The products auto-list assumes that you want to add a product that manufactured by another organization to your store, therefore, once you click one of the products inside the auto-list, all the available information about it will be displayed inside the form except for the price.</div>

This is what happens when you select a product from the auto-list

<div id="editor9" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> If you decided however not to select a product from the Auto-list, you would have to fill in those fields by yourself, if you own a factory or a workshop which manufactures this product, type your Organization's name (My Organization in our example) inside the Brand Field.In case you select a Product from the auto-list that has related images, feel free to add more images to the Product's Image gallery (by clicking the Add Images hyperlink) and arrange their order by dragging and dropping (the system automatically uses the first image  as an icon for the product inside your Products gallery).Now before Saving let's mention a random price like 18 AED/m2, Now click the Save button, you will be redirected back to the Products gallery page:</div>

The Products page after adding the first product

<div id="editor10" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> On the figure above, notice that the left-hand side column of the page is dedicated to the product Type.Instead of the dull look of the word  Flooring,  we want to put an iconic image, to do that, click the pencil icon located at the top right side of the Flooring icon and select a picture from your choice, when done, the Products page should look like this:</div>

<div id="editor11" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> Now let's add a new Product. However, the type of product we are going to add does not exist in the website database. Therefore we have to mention all the details about this product including the manufacturer which does not exist in the database as well.So once again click the Add Product button, and type Cement for Type, then type Portland Cement for the product name, and for the Brand, type Cemex.The form should eventually look like this:</div>

Click to enlarge

<div id="editor12" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> Now click the save button to return to  the Products page:</div>

<div id="editor13" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> Perfect! for our good luck there is a default icon chosen by the website for the products categorized as "Cement". However, you still have the chance to upload your own custom icon.Now since the brand name called  Cemex has no logo on Archilobby.com at the moment, the literal word "Cemex" is written at the top left corner of the product's image with no picture.Regardless the fact that you are not the owner of the Cemex profile page, you still have the opportunity to upload a logo on behalf of Cemex, to do that click the pencil icon located to the left of the word Cemex and upload the proper logo:</div>

<div id="editor14" class="ed" contenteditable="true"> That shows you how much flexible our website, as you can add to your store new products that were created by new brands which are not even known by the site.Now let's assume that you want to set the products of type Cement as the first and default products over all the other product types inside the page, all you have to do then is just hover the Cement icon, then click the upper arrow icon to move it to the top of the Flooring icon as shown next: </div>
