Editing product lists

Product lists can be edited at any point, but they need to be re-evaluated for any of the changes to go into effect. Until the lists are re-evaluated, any referenced product displays will continue using the products in the now-outdated list.
When defining a product list, there are three elements to set:
Name — This value is the name of the product list. This value has to be unique and is just used to help the user to identify different product lists.
Catalog — A list's catalog is the source of all products for the list to interpret rules against. In most cases, an account only has one catalog (Default Catalog).
Rules — The rules act as the filters on the product catalog. During evaluation, each product in the catalog will be analyzed to see if it falls under all of the rules defined on the list. If so, the product is included in the list.
Rules can be considered to be very similar to rules and rulesets in another Fanplayr feature called Segmentation. Whereas rules in Segmentation are evaluated based on user activity, the rules in a product list are evaluated against products in a catalog. There are many different types of rules that are available to use to filter products, but most involve three main customizable elements:
Rule — This is the rule type. Selecting different types will often result in the remaining fields' options slightly changing.
Operator — This is the operator of the rule. It denotes how the value (set below) will be interpreted. In the screenshot, the operator is "RegEx" which triggers the "value" section to be viewed as a regular expression.
Value — The use of the value set here depends heavily on the rule type and operator. It can be a numeric value, a price, a regular expression, or just a string of characters. If the operator is "Between", there will be two values to enter.
