Formatting fixColumn names2 found

Extra spaces in column names

Some names in the top row have extra spaces or a hidden mark. We can clean them up without changing your product details.

More details

Shopify matches header names exactly. Leading or trailing spaces and a hidden byte-order mark make it treat the column as unknown. We removed only that whitespace and kept your spelling — current or legacy — exactly as written.

1 column to check

We left these columns unchanged. Shopify may not use them. Compare their names with Shopify's product template.

More details

We keep unknown columns exactly as they are: "Internal Notes". Shopify may ignore or reject them — we cannot verify that for you.

Formatting fixTrue / false values8 found

Yes/no answers can be formatted for Shopify

In Shopify's yes/no columns, we change yes or 1 to TRUE, and no or 0 to FALSE. Changing lowercase true to uppercase TRUE is only a formatting change; it doesn't mean the original was wrong.

More details

Shopify expects TRUE or FALSE in these columns. We only rewrite spellings with exactly one meaning: true/yes/1 and false/no/0, in any letter case.

Needs your attentionMissing information1 found

A product is missing its name

Add a name in the Title column on the product's first row. Later rows for its other sizes, colors, or images can have blank titles.

More details

Shopify takes the product title from the first row of each handle. Blank titles on later variant or image rows are correct and expected — these are first rows.

Choose yes or no for these cells

We can't tell which answer you mean. Enter TRUE for yes or FALSE for no in the cells shown, then check your file again.

More details

These are not an unambiguous yes or no, so we will not rewrite them — and we will not sell you a file that still contains them. Set them to TRUE or FALSE and upload again.
