Hello,
We have a client and they currently have a meta field created in their theme by a Shopify developer that displays packaging units in increments of five. It is now the case that the theme needs to be replaced. Can the existing configurations and functions of this meta field be transferred to the new theme? Because a lot of products are affected by this. Thanks

Hi @itx-admin
Metafield are the core and custom element of Shopify like product and orders.
Core refers element which resides with application.
Custom means since you have created them for specific purpose, you have to custom code to print their value at theme.
So everytime you change the theme you have to write custom code to use them.
Now if theme choosen by you have the same structure as your current code should work.
