create a product in Magento without making it visible on the frontend?

To create a product in Magento without displaying it on the frontend, you can set the product’s visibility attribute to “Not Visible Individually.” Here’s how to do it:

1. Go to the Magento Admin panel.
2. Navigate to Catalog > Products.
3. Click on Add Product to create a new product, or edit an existing one.
4. In the Visibility section, select Not Visible Individually.
5. Complete the rest of the product details as needed.
6. Save the product.

Setting Visibility to “Not Visible Individually” hides the product from catalog and search pages, keeping it accessible only through specific URLs or if used as a part of a grouped/bundled product.
