Adding and editing manufacturers in ReadyCMS allows you to organize products by brand and makes it easier for customers to filter products based on their preferred manufacturers. Properly managing manufacturers ensures better product organization and enhances the customer shopping experience.

In this guide, we’ll walk through how to add a new manufacturer and edit an existing one.

How to add manufacturers

To add a manufacturer, follow these steps:

  1. Login: Sign in to your ReadyCMS account
  2. Navigate: Go to Shop > Manufacturers > Add new manufacturers
    A CMS dashboard interface with multiple navigation sections organized into columns. The sections are labeled as 'Products,' 'Orders,' 'Customers,' 'Discounts,' 'Inventory,' 'Manufacturers,' 'Wishlist,' 'Other,' and 'Insights.' Each section contains sub-options such as adding new products, viewing all orders, adding categories, managing customers, applying discount rules, viewing inventory, and adding manufacturers. Insights options include Overall, Orders, Products, Timetable, Events, and more.
  3. Add: On the Adding new content page enter the information/details about the manufacturer
    A CMS interface displaying the 'Adding New Content' page. It includes three tabs: General, Attributes, and SEO. The General tab is open, featuring a 'Title' field, followed by a 'Text' area with a rich-text editor that offers formatting options such as bold, italic, lists, grids, alerts, buttons, and more. On the right side, there's a 'Publish' section with options for Status (Published), Visibility (Public), Language (All languages), Sticky, and Sort. A green 'Save' button is visible in the upper right corner.
  4. Publish: Set the Status as Published, set Visibility as Public (if you want the manufacturer to be displayed on your website)
  5. Language: Choose from the list of preset languages
  6. Finish: Click the Save button to save the data

If you have already created a manufacturer page, but you need to change some details about it, you can edit the page by following a few simple steps.
