Change multi row section for each product.

[Arrlouk]

I'm using multi row section under each product to explain more about the features but with none of the products being the same do I have to make a new template for each product and go to store editor and change each time. 

Because Im thinking maybe there is away todo it like you do with meta fields for other stuff. ( Like I have them three drop down menus that I can change each time with meta fields when I'm filling out the product info.)

Sorry I'm not to sure on all the terms and words you use. 

Cheers. 

I'm two months into my store I love this Shopify only wish I had started sooner.

You're thinking in the right direction with metafields. For showcasing unique features for each product without creating a new template every time, metafields are indeed a great solution.

Instead of static content in your multi-row sections, you can use metafields to store feature information for each product. Then, in your product template, you can set up these sections to dynamically pull content from these metafields. This way, when you update the metafield values in the product information, the changes will automatically reflect on the product page.

To set this up, you’ll first need to define the metafields in your Shopify admin, where you can enter the specific features for each product. Next, modify your product template to include sections that display content using dynamic sources powered from these metafields.

Sizzle, Thank you so much for your help. If I could buy you a beer we would be down the pub now 🙂 I managed to work it out before I seen you replied with video you first reply was enough more to put the puzzle together. 

Okay now onto the next problem...

Dont suppose you know why when I fill in social media links section it shows link as www.mysite.co.uk/facebook.com/(page link)

I have had to add some app to do it but want the other social sharing options aswell. I want to remove the app. I can do this but not change the links to be correct.

A digital beer is just fine 🍻. Are you referring to the social media links that are part of the theme? Can you share a screenshot so I can get a bit more clarity.

Hi Sizzle, I have no idea if you will see this 1 year later from this thread being opened but I am also using metafields to show photos of different features of different products. My products have a different number of features though so how would i remove blank sections from products that have fewer product photos?

Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Nostalgia_Bags. If you are using metafields as dynamic sources, by default there is not going to be a way to hide this content, it would require a code modification. The code modification would be a conditional statement that you could add to your section or block that would exclude if that metafield was empty. If you were to use metaobject entries, and repeatable dynamic sources, this may help but would require some testing, still would not hide parent section. This is all a bit more advanced.
