# Customize product visibility (+ CSV)

 * Hello,
 * I am wondering if there is a way to upload certain new products and not have 
   them appear on in the main catalog (which is the shop’s home page). I would like
   for them to only been seen if a customer browses to their specific category.
   
   For example: I sell electronic music, and that is what people look for when they
   come to my shop. On some occasions I have a few things from other genres to sell(
   let’s say rock music in this case). I don’t want to have the rock music mixed
   in with the electronic music in the main catalog, since that is not what most
   people are there for. But, I will have a Rock Music category that can be clicked
   on and the products matching that genre will then be displayed.Is it possible?
   And if so, what should I be inputting to note this visibility when I upload my
   products via CSV?Thank you

 * I understand your goal. However, for a product to be available for purchasing,
   it needs to be public. Therefore, this sounds like a front-end organization issue,
   rather than a product issue.
 * Have you already considered renaming the menu item for the electronic music as
   the “main catalog”, thus leaving the rock music items appear in their category
   when someone is browsing it, perhaps?
 * For completing implementing the desired functionality, I’d recommend a web search
   for `WooCommerce redirect return to shop button`, in order to cover that way 
   of accessing the full store’s catalog also.
 * I hope this is helpful! Please let us know if you have any further questions 
   or concerns.
   We will be happy to help you further.
