How to Manage and Search Files in Shopify Ride Theme

Ride's sports-centric storefronts often need to back a product with a real technical spec sheet or size chart, not just a description in the product copy.

Steps

  1. In your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Files (some admin versions show this as Content > Files).
  2. Click Upload files and add your documents — Shopify accepts any file type except HTML, up to 20 MB each. Video files can go up to 1 GB, capped at 10 minutes, in MOV, MP4, or WEBM.
  3. Once uploaded, click a file to copy its public URL.
  4. Paste that URL into a product description, a page, or a navigation menu link — this is the only way customers reach it.
  5. Repeat per file. There's no bulk-link tool, so each one gets placed manually.

Technical docs shoppers actually search for

Shopify's Files section is admin-only — there's no customer-facing search or browse view. Shoppers comparing technical specs across models don't want to hunt through product pages one at a time. An app like Download Page & File Search MP adds a searchable file widget so they can find the right spec sheet directly.
