  • Product Reservations in Shopify via Manage Comics
    Jul 22 2024

    We're back, and boy do we have some awesome stuff to share with you. Not only do we have this great podcast for you to enjoy, but we're sharing a project that is a pretty big deal.

    We've wanted to add product reservations to Manage Comics since we began and had to originally create a hack as a way around Shopify's limitations...but thanks to recent upgrades by Shopify, we can introduce this great new feature.

    We'll explain what you can expect, how this will work, and what this means for YOU.

    All this, and so much more.

    This one's not SUPER long as we get back at it, but it's super cool for sure!
