Help regarding custom design - show or hide a Shopify product page template based on a product tag

Hi,

 

I would like to know if it's possible to insert a custom field for templates on product pages, where we could insert a product tag and the template would be shown or hidden, depending if the product has the same tag or not.

Here is the image, and on the left we would need a field where we could insert the product tag.

 

Thank you

This is an accepted solution.

If you want to add a custom field to an existing section, then the answer is yes you can.

At the bottom of the source code for that particular section, you will see a big {% schema %} section. If you add new fields in here, they will appear in that left hand window, and you can then refer to those fields in the code with {{ section.???? }} to do certain things. In your case, it sounds like you want to check certain tag values, and show them or not. 

 

You'll need a bit of coding / liquid experience, but assuming you do, its shouldn't be too bad.

By the way, unless you particularly need your Shopify admin to be multi language, you don't need to worry about all the language translations.

 

"label": "My Custom Field"

 

Will do, rather than the dozen or so locales.

 

Hope that helps,

 

Kevin.
