Question, the meta limit is 20 but I’m trying to add more multi-line and single-line text to a meta fill but since 20/20 is pinned, I’m not able to add more multi/single lines to a new metafields, how do I resolve this?
New shopify store owner/user/designer. I could not make sense of how the metafields get used to create a product page flow. This explanation video was excellent. Just what I needed to know to move forward. Thank you very much, Ed.
This was a very helpful explanation of metafields, thank you! I am trying to fully grasp their potential - as someone who's a store owner but NOT a dev
Thank you for actually explaining metafields the other guys videos he talked as though he wasn't speaking German to us non programmers. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU very useful kept it up!
I really learned a lot so far from your tutorials. As you have ask in one of them, what could be interesting: I did not find a solution so far for a logo list for the homepage. Images in columns that are linked to collections (or something else). Have a good weekend.
This is great - thanks! I see how easy it is to add 'text' metafields - But you showed us examples of Fresh Ego Kid use metafields to show 'Other Options' and 'Complete the Look'. It's straightforward to set up the 'complete the look' metafield using 'list of products' and this now shows on the individual product pages. But how do I make it 'live' using Impulse theme? I can see where you can dynamically add a text block. But how do I add a block to show the 'complete the look' photos? (which 'block type' would pull in this metafield?) Hopefully this makes sense,
I see the metafield in the dynamic list if it is a single line text. But for a multi-line text, it does not show in the list. Thanks for the video, it did help me understand metafields.
Hello, first thanks so much for all your videos they are super informative. I got a question is there any way to only show some variations depending of your location ? I sell framed prints in Australia but I want to sell prints only without a frame to any other country in the world. Thanks so much all the best
Hi Ed, thank you very much for your tutorials! They are very valuable and easy to understand. Do you think, you can do one for Variant Metafields - what can they be used for?
You can use the Shopify Translate & Adapt app to translate metafield values. Check out my recent video titled "Big Shopify Update 2023" where I demo a bit of this app.
I am new to shopify and am on the starter plan so I have very limited choices. Is there a way to use metaobjects to add fields to my product pages that I can then use to add sorting to my storefront? I would like to be able to sort by a store category and primary color. I don't have the ability to establish collections.
Hi Ed, how come that it is not possible to click on a metafield to be redirected to a filter search of products with that metafield? İt does it in the filter; why not link to that from the product page? what am I missing? Thank you!
Is there any way to have variant-specific information in PDP? Let's say I have a variant called Size and it has 3 options, Large, Medium, and Small. Now what I want to show is a piece of text snippet depending on which options I'm currently selecting. Each text snippet is different and which one will be visible will depend on which option is currently selected. Is there any way I can set the variant's options metafield like this? Thanks in advance.
Hi i have 19 different products which has different description and ingrediens (Cosmetics Products) so do i need to create 19 metafields? or how to do easiest?
Extremely helpful videos! Do you know if the Metafields can be sorted either in the settings or on the product page? It seems that they are sorted by creation timeline.
Hi ! It seems most of the Shopify themes only support DYNAMIC SOURCE for TEXT metafields, not for FILE metafields. When would the theme developers probably come up with that up to date?
While I've successfully used metafields for my new shopify store, I'm not able to figure out why, when using the #integer option the selection does not show up in 'shopify search & discovery.' Essentially I'm trying to create a filter that helps sort foods by protein content. (the field only shows up when the 'single line text' opt is used).
Does this help make the sales because when I post a product up I’m not sure about other items I know for books will this get the sale besides the pictures
Hmm, well it's almost the same as for products. Go to Settings > Metafields, and there you see Products, Variants, Collections etc... So go into Variants and define a new metafield. After that, you can go into any product that has variants, and click on the Edit button next to the variant to enter the Variant editor, scroll down and you should be able to see the new metafield at the bottom of the page.
Thank you for this great video! It would be interesting to know how did you manage to set the Similar Products option since the product reference metafield is limited to one product and is not working with handle values
This isn't the product reference metafield, it's just a basic text metafield. In the template code I use the liquid 'split' filter on this text to split on every comma and get an array. Then loop through that array to output the related products.
@@EdCodes I understand! Thank you so much for the answer, I am trying to get a similar products option to display custom related products and this helped me.
You are talking about a big store with many products, how many products would it be? Do 500 products are considered a big store, I don't have any cue on this. I will have 400 or so in my store.
Hi Ed, thanks for the tutorial. I have a very important question, please take a look and let me know if you know the answer. Why is the video file metafiled not working when I try to add different videos to each product page? I can only pull dynamic source for the cover image and the alt text but the video on its own does not give the opportunity to be pulled from a dynamic file source even though I have already uploaded and assigned videos to every product from their respective product page. Thank you in advance.
First, thank you so much for your video. I'm practicing on shoptify design and the metafield explanation may help me a lot. May I ask, for the metafield Text, is there anyway to make it bold or customize?? I understand we can mix with the Text block to customize, but, the text block seems to apply to all Product Listing Page while I aim for only specific page. I currently on Warehouse Themes. Thank you and hope you doing well to create more helpful contents.
This video was super helpful! Thanks so much for putting it together. I'm good with the text metafields now but I can't seem to get a URL one to work. Is there something special for those?
I just bought some of your Gumroad products to thank you for these videos. You are a LIFESAVER. Wishing you much success. Appreciate all of your fantastic content, Ed!

Sorry I didn't understand it, what's the difference between using the description on normal way and this metafield? I changed my theme from venture to dawn recently, erasing what a wrote before and redoing all description on this way do not seems practical.
The point is not to use metafields for the description but rather if you want other bits of information positioned on other parts of the product page (not all together in the description part). I'm filming another video where I demonstrate with ingredient lists formatted nicely in a table. Definitely don't use metafields if you don't have a need for them!
Thanks for the videos! How i can get thats metafields in the cart or the order detail to have a portability of said data, in my order? I need them to better understand what product I am selling at the time I consolidate the package. Thank man!
Hey, welcome! I'm not sure I understand your situation - is it information the customer should choose? Like an engraving or gift note? Then you dont need metafields for that, you need line item properties. Can you tell me about your product and what data you need?
Thank you very much for your videos. I was wondering how to hide the static content (in your example "Fabric") if I don't want to add text to this metafield in the backend. For example, if a product is not made of fabric but of metal. Thank you for your reply.
Hi, you don't have to put any static text inside that field in settings. It will just be the metafield data. I might have misunderstood though, you don't want to show the word 'metal' at all?
@@EdCodes Hi, thank you for your fast reply. I took a bad example. I'll try again with another example. In the product template I create two metafields. Metafield 1 static content= diameter. Metafield 2 static content= length. The products I want to create are a ring and a necklace. For the ring I fill the metafield 1 with the diameter. Metafield 2 is not filled because the ring has no length.For the necklace it is exactly the opposite. Both static contents are displayed in the frontend. One of them has no dynamic content and the field remains empty. In this case, I want to hide the static content from an unfilled metafield so that it does not appear in the frontend. Is there this possibility with Shopify (Dawn Theme). Thank you for your help.
@@omniarte Ok I see what you mean, this is a good question. I think I will make a video about it. But yes it's possible, you will need to use the custom liquid block and output your metafield inside an if statement. Do you mind sharing your store URL so I can recreate the exact situation in my testing store? Either here in comments or email me at hi@ed.codes. Thanks!
@@EdCodes Hi, thank you for your reply. A video would be great. I don't have a live shop yet.I am new to Shopify and trying the possibilities that Shopify (Dawn Theme) offers. Before I tried it with Wordpress-Elementor-WooCommerce etc., but the constant updates and managing the many plugins is too much work.
Is it possible to add a metafield filter where a product has multiple values. for example if a product was made from "glass" and "meta". I want a filter called "Materials" and I want that product to filter on both "glass" and "Metal"
Yeah that should be pretty straightforward to setup using the new 2.0 filtering system. Just define the metafield and add both metal and glass to the product. Then add the metafield filter under Online Store > Navigation
Hello. I am using a (booster 2.2.1) theme and I having difficulty setting this up because I don't have the option (add block) at 14:14 time of this video. Can anyone recommend any other video's to overcome this issue. It seems the metafield feature only works with a few themes. I hope someone can guide into the right direction.
Hi, booster 2.2.1 is a few years old I think. It is not ready for Shopify 2.0 features like I show in this video. I recommend upgrading to the latest version of Booster. It is already at 6.0.5
Yes, variant metafields work almost the same way. Except to edit them you need to go into the admin product page and then into each variant to see those fields.
Hello and Thanks for the video, I would like to know if is possible to have the metafields on the description of the product? We have lots of product and not time for writing a description, that's the reason we're trying to used 8 metafields as description. Please let me know if is possible. Thanks Jose'-
Hi Jose, are you using a Shopify OS 2.0 theme? If yes, you can output the metafields in the same place as the product description. If not, then you will probably need the help of a developer to get this done by modifying theme code.
@@EdCodes Thanks for your help, I was able to do it. The case now is it's not recognized as description, of course is shown at the store but not in any 3rd party site like Facebook Merchant. How can that situation be fixed?
For that exact look and function, yes it would require coding. However you can set up something similar to 'Other Options' in most Shopify 2.0 themes by using the "featured product" section on the product page, or by installing a cross-sell app that works almost the same way. For 'Complete the look' there are apps that allow manual selection of products for the recommended products section. Custom coded is the cleanest solution though.
@@EdCodes I followed your video closely and agree custom code is the best way for this. Please can you show us how to display the "product reference" metafield. After I create it and select a product as a reference product, I don't see it as an option when adding a block in the product section, and of course I don't see it on the product page either. Thank you
@@EdCodes Thank you for your quick response! I looked at the options you suggested, but they don't suit what I need. I really need to identify specific products that have product related variants. I'm comfortable modifying the code on my own, however I need to know the steps. If you are comfortable sharing them with me, I would be very happy to add this very useful element to my shop. If you're not comfortable with sharing this, there is no problem, I will understand. Thank you so much for your help.
@@vladpopov9157 What type of block are you adding? If you are adding a text block then it wont know what to do with that metafield information, so it's not available. If you are adding the 'featured product' block type, then this should accept a product reference metafield.
@@keuhatt Hi Catherine, do you have web development experience? It's not an easy modification. I could show you my code but to adapt it to your theme you need to know HTML, CSS and Liquid.
It's already a built-in field yes, but SKU is unique for each variant (like color, size), not the entire product. So if your product doesn't have variants its easy - you can display it using {{ product.variants.first.sku }}. If your product does have variants you need to loop through them like this : {%for variant in product.variants %} {{variant.sku }} {% endfor %} But you need to wrap the sku in some html depending on how you want to display them.
Hi dude, I'm a shopify developer and I want to build a review app, I want to insert star reviews into the product list page, I've seen some apps that use METAFIELDS, but I don't know if the source fields can be linked to the backend interface, do you have any ideas
Hey I don't really know much about back-end dev, sorry, but I definitely think that should be possible. Where else are you meant to retrieve additional product info from? shopify.dev/apps/metafields
I want to give you some unsolicited advise. You're making two classic UA-cam mistakes that makes audiences click away. First, don't just tell, show as your telling. You're not maximizing the power of video. Instead of using the first few minutes trying to describe what you're talking about using hand gestures, show what your talking about on the screen as you're talking about it. Your viewers will better understand what you're talking about. Second, use the talking head sparingly. It's OK to show yourself talking when its the introduction and when you need to make an important point, but try hard to limit the amount of time on it. A talking head is boring to watch and makes it very difficult for your viewers to stay focus. Finally, learn to smile. It really helps make the user more connected with you and your topic.

@@EdCodes Thank you for your quick response! I looked at the options you suggested, but they don't suit what I need. I really need to identify specific products that have product related variants. I'm comfortable modifying the code on my own, however I need to know the steps. If you are comfortable sharing them with me, I would be very happy to add this very useful element to my shop. If you're not comfortable with sharing this, there is no problem, I will understand. Thank you so much for your help.
@@vladpopov9157 What type of block are you adding? If you are adding a text block then it wont know what to do with that metafield information, so it's not available. If you are adding the 'featured product' block type, then this should accept a product reference metafield.
@@keuhatt Hi Catherine, do you have web development experience? It's not an easy modification. I could show you my code but to adapt it to your theme you need to know HTML, CSS and Liquid.
Is the SKU already a metafield? How can I display it on the product page?
It's already a built-in field yes, but SKU is unique for each variant (like color, size), not the entire product. So if your product doesn't have variants its easy - you can display it using {{ product.variants.first.sku }}.
If your product does have variants you need to loop through them like this :
{%for variant in product.variants %}
{{variant.sku }}
{% endfor %}
But you need to wrap the sku in some html depending on how you want to display them.
Hi dude, I'm a shopify developer and I want to build a review app, I want to insert star reviews into the product list page, I've seen some apps that use METAFIELDS, but I don't know if the source fields can be linked to the backend interface, do you have any ideas
Hey I don't really know much about back-end dev, sorry, but I definitely think that should be possible. Where else are you meant to retrieve additional product info from? shopify.dev/apps/metafields

Is the Dawn theme a 2.0?
Yes - Dawn as well as Craft, Sense, Crave, Taste, Studio - are all the free Shopify 2.0 themes. They are all basically the same theme though.
I want to give you some unsolicited advise. You're making two classic UA-cam mistakes that makes audiences click away. First, don't just tell, show as your telling. You're not maximizing the power of video. Instead of using the first few minutes trying to describe what you're talking about using hand gestures, show what your talking about on the screen as you're talking about it. Your viewers will better understand what you're talking about.
Second, use the talking head sparingly. It's OK to show yourself talking when its the introduction and when you need to make an important point, but try hard to limit the amount of time on it. A talking head is boring to watch and makes it very difficult for your viewers to stay focus. Finally, learn to smile. It really helps make the user more connected with you and your topic.
Regular people. Lol
get to the point man...

ON YOUR website the link "Klaviyo" don't work on your apps page
Thank you so much! It was really helpful!
