Group by title pattern

Automatically detect and create product groups from title patterns like 'Summer Tee - Red'.

If your catalog names variations consistently — Summer Tee - Red, Summer Tee - Blue, Summer Tee - Green — the app can detect the shared base name and create single-option groups for you, in bulk.

Titles are split at the separator into base name and value, and matching products become groups
Titles are split at your separator — matching products become groups you review before creating.

Start it from Groups → Create group → Group by title pattern (the Smart grouping card).

Step 1 — Configure detection

Title pattern detection settings form with the How it works panel
Configure how Combined Listings should detect groups from your product titles.
Setting
What it does

Separator

The character(s) that split a title into base name + option value (e.g. - in Summer Tee - Red).

Option name

The option created for every detected group (e.g. Color). You can rename it per group during review.

Minimum group size

Groups with fewer matching products are skipped.

Product filters

Optionally limit detection by product status (Any / Active / Draft), collection, or vendor.

Click Analyze products to run detection. Analysis reads your catalog directly — nothing is created yet.

Step 2 — Review detected groups

Review list showing detected groups across multiple products
Review every detected group before creating them in bulk.

For each detected group you can:

  • Select or deselect which groups get created.

  • Rename the group's option.

  • Exclude a wrongly matched product (and add it back).

The review also reports products that didn't match any pattern and products skipped because they already belong to a group.

Step 3 — Create

Click Create N groups. Progress runs through: Matching products by title → Creating groups → Applying the option → Publishing to your storefront.

Step 4 — Done

A summary shows how many groups were created and their statuses, with shortcuts to Customize appearance and View product groups.

Completion screen with created-group statistics

Created groups are ordinary single-option groups — edit them afterwards like any other group.
