# How to Manage Product Description in Shopvid

The Products module lets you manage all products tagged in your Shopvid videos, including which videos they appear in and the description customers see when they interact with your products in the video player.

### Prerequisites <a href="#prerequisites" id="prerequisites"></a>

* Products must already be tagged to at least one video in Shopvid. Products appear in the **Products** list automatically once tagged.

### Steps <a href="#steps" id="steps"></a>

#### Step 1: Go to the Products module <a href="#step-1-go-to-the-products-module" id="step-1-go-to-the-products-module"></a>

From the Shopvid app, click **Products** in the left navigation menu. You will see a list of all products currently tagged in your videos.

#### Step 2: Click Edit on a product <a href="#step-2-click-edit-on-a-product" id="step-2-click-edit-on-a-product"></a>

Find the product you want to manage. Click the **Edit** button in the **Action** column to open the product detail page.

#### Step 3: Review the Product Detail page <a href="#step-3-review-the-product-detail-page" id="step-3-review-the-product-detail-page"></a>

On the **Product Detail** page, you can manage two things:

* **Attach video(s)** — which videos this product is linked to
* **Description** — the product description customers see in the video

#### Step 4: Edit the product description <a href="#step-4-edit-the-product-description" id="step-4-edit-the-product-description"></a>

Scroll to the **Product information** section. In the **Description** field, enter or update the product description.

* To pull in the existing Shopify description, click **Use Shopify description**. This will load the description from your Shopify product page.
* To write a custom description, type directly in the **Description** field (placeholder: *Enter product description...*).

#### Step 5: Preview the description <a href="#step-5-preview-the-description" id="step-5-preview-the-description"></a>

Click **Preview** to see how the description will appear to customers in the video player before saving.

#### Step 6: Save your changes <a href="#step-6-save-your-changes" id="step-6-save-your-changes"></a>

When you are satisfied with the description, click **Save** to apply the changes.

#### Step 7: (Optional) Manage attached videos <a href="#step-7-optional-manage-attached-videos" id="step-7-optional-manage-attached-videos"></a>

Still on the **Product Detail** page, you can also manage which videos this product appears in:

* Click **Attach video** to link an additional video.
* On any existing attached video, click **Unattach** to remove the link.

#### Step 8: (Optional) Attach videos from the Products list <a href="#step-8-optional-attach-videos-from-the-products-list" id="step-8-optional-attach-videos-from-the-products-list"></a>

You can also attach videos directly from the **Products** list without entering the Product Detail page. Click **Attach video** in the **Action** column, select your videos in the **Attach videos** modal, then click **Save**.

### Tips <a href="#tips" id="tips"></a>

* Use **Use Shopify description** for consistency with your Shopify storefront, or write a custom description to tailor the message for video viewers.
* The **Sync description** button on the Products list page lets you sync descriptions for all products at once.
* Changes to the description only affect what customers see inside the Shopvid video player — your Shopify product page is not modified.
* Products are added to this list automatically when you tag them in a video. You can also use **Add products** on the Products page to tag products in bulk.
