Individual brand hiding now available on manufacturer pages

It’s now possible to hide specific brands from manufacturer listing pages without affecting product visibility. This is especially useful in situations where all products under a brand are temporarily unavailable or the brand should only be made visible later.

Brand visibility can be managed easily via the admin panel:

Admin → Products → Brands, where a brand’s status can be set to Disabled. This setting only affects whether the brand appears in brand listings and manufacturer pages. The products themselves remain available in the store and can still be found through search engines and internal navigation.

This ensures that SEO visibility and product discoverability are not impacted — even if the brand is temporarily hidden from public listings.
