See every featureBaseline Collection Checker helps you identify products that are not assigned to any collection in your store. Run manual scans to detect unorganized products and review them in a clean, searchable list. Each result includes direct links to the Shopify admin, so you can quickly assign products to their respectable collections.
Smart Collection Pro goes beyond Shopify's built-in collection rules. Create automated collections with unlimited conditions and nest them into a sub-collections hierarchy, filtering down from a parent or rolling products up from children. Use grouped rules like (A and B) or (C and D). Filter by discount percentage, rolling dates, SKU patterns, stock, and any metafield.
