Hi all, is there a way to display the product weight (I have no variations, but I guess there is still a technical one) in a collapsible tab (richtext field, I guess)?

 

I can access it in a custom liquid field via `{{ product.first_available_variant.weight | weight_with_unit }}`. But this I can not use in a richtext field. And the "current selected" variation is not available as a dynamic source.

 

Is there a nice solution for this?

  Uff, my solution so far: Adding a custom_liquid block to the collapsible tab...

I'm just playing around in a test store. I'm just asking if there is a simpler solution to get more dynamic sources of the product than just the meta fields.

Have you tried adding your code to a custom block in the product page?

Using a custom liquid block works. But I want to use a special block like "collapsible block" and there is only a richtext option, no liquid code. But I'm wondering about the whole "dynamic source" thing. Shouldn't be all the product properties be available as {{product.xy}} as a dynamic source in a richtext field? It's so strange that "only" {{product.title}} and {{product.vendor}} and ALL custom meta fields are available, but not "standard" product properties. That's just something I don't get my head around... 

Of course I can edit the template and write some liquid code there, or create my own "collapsible block" which supports liquide code. But I'm just wondering about the dynamic source thingy above... all custom meta fields, but not "standard" product properties...
