What do you want to display, the variant name or some other text?

@ginthu yes the variant name and size preferably?

I assume the variant images are already visible. So you can inspect the code from google dev tool. Look for something to identify that element for example the classname. then you can search the classname in the code. there you will find the variant images rendering. so underneath the images you can put the custom code <p>{{ variant.title }}</p>. (the variable name can be different according to you code.).

 

but before that check in the customiser theme settings if there is an option to display variant name, for some themes there is an option.

I Tried this and I found the location to add <p>{{ variant.title }}</p> tag but I'm not seeing anything using that code. If I add some text

e.g. <p> Hello</p> it appears in the right position. Any ideas?

I think you are in the wrong place, can you find variant-picker.liquid inside snipped?

Hi @terryohm  To add this test  you need contact support theme. Because it will change structure theme and many code to show type body text.

Thank you so much.
