Hi
I know you can have a product in three states: Active, Disabled and Hidden
What exactly does hidden do? Does it keep the product in the search engines but no in the front end product list?
Thx
Yes. You can say a landing page or custom error page or promotional page.

I dont understand…
Here’s the definitions of the different statuses and their implications:
Active: Product is searchable, visible, shows in blocks and can be linked to from outside.
Hidden: Product is only available via a link or direct access to the page (does not generate a 404). It is not searchable or shown in any blocks.
Disabled: Not accessible from anywhere other than admin. If the page is accessed via a link, a 404 is generated.

Thanks, but if in hidden state is the product still available to the search engines?
Thx
Only if they have a direct link. It will not show in any category listings, filters or searches.
