When your affiliates create collections through CreatorCommerce, they’re automatically turned into real Shopify collections—making their curation visible across your store. But if you’re managing a lot of collabs, your Shopify Collections page can start looking like a dumping ground.

This guide shows you how to clean things up by tagging CreatorCommerce collections with a prefix and filtering them out (or into) separate views in your Shopify admin.

‍

✅ Step 1: Add a Prefix to CreatorCommerce Collections

First, make sure CreatorCommerce collections are easy to identify.

1. Log into your CreatorCommerce dashboard
2. Go to the Settings tab
3. Toggle on "Enable Collection Prefix"

This will automatically add CC // to the title of any collection created by CreatorCommerce.

‍

‍

Example:
Instead of Summer Picks by Ava, the collection will be titled CC // Summer Picks by Ava

‍

⚠️ Heads up: To keep your storefront clean, remove the prefix when displaying collection titles in your Liquid theme.
Use this:

{{ collection.title | remove: "CC // " }}

‍

🧹 Step 2: Hide CreatorCommerce Collections in Shopify Admin

Now let’s create a view in your Shopify admin that hides these collections.

1. Go to your Shopify Admin
2. Click Products → Collections
3. Click the "More filters" or "Create View" button (depending on your admin version)
4. Click Create View
5. Give the view a name like "Non-CreatorCommerce Collections"
6. In the filter, enter:
   -"CC // "
7. Save the view

‍

Boom—your view now shows only your manually created or product-driven collections.

‍

🔍 Step 3: (Optional) Create a View to Only Show CreatorCommerce Collections

If you want to review or manage affiliate collections separately:

1. Go back to your Shopify Admin → Collections
2. Click Create View
3. Name it something like "Affiliate Collections"
4. Set the filter:
   "CC // "
5. Save the view

‍

You now have clean, segmented views in your Shopify admin for better workflow and less clutter.

‍

🙌 Summary

• Turn on the "Enable Collection Prefix" setting in CreatorCommerce
• Use CC // to identify affiliate-generated collections
• Filter Shopify views to hide or isolate those collections
• Use | remove: "CC // " in Liquid to keep titles customer-friendly

This simple setup gives you full control over what you and your team see in the admin, while still enabling scalable creator curation.
