Hi i sell custom dog accessories. When someone chooses a collar is there a way they can add their dogs neck measurement. Like a custom variant or product note?

Hey @Schatziscloset ,

You have a few great options here!

Firstly, you can edit your theme’s code by creating an alternate product page template that includes custom form fields, or line item properties. You can then apply your new template to any product for which you want to collect customization information from customers. We do have a step-by-step guide below if you’d like to try this out:

TIP: If you make changes to the original code and save the changes, you will not be able to revert back. We always suggest you first duplicate the theme and work in the duplicate. That way you can always go back to your previous version.

If you’d rather not try making that change, there are apps that can help! While they do advertise the options for creating infinite variants, they’re highly customizable. This means that they do also have the ability to add a text field to your products and update the price accordingly. I’ll list a few of the options below:

As with all third-party apps in our store, you can reach out to the developers directly with any support queries you have by using the contact details listed there on the app store page.

Without a doubt, customizable gifts have become a huge player in the gift-giving world as people find increased value in personalized products.

Let me know how you get on!

Hi @Schatziscloset ,

I noticed that you’ve received suggestions for several third-party apps to set up your custom options. However, I’d like to recommend another app that offers a new-generation product options experience.

The Easify Product Options app provides advanced features, live preview, 25 option types, 20 option set templates, and it’s more affordable with a Free plan available :hugs: .

Here are a few ways you can use the app to set up your options and allow customers to choose or provide their dogs’ neck measurement:

  • Create a Number text box: This allows customers to enter their dogs’ neck measurement as a numeric value. Add min & max value if you want.

  • Create a Text area: Customers can provide additional details or specific instructions regarding their dogs’ neck measurement.

  • Create a Dimension field: This option allows customers to enter the appropriate size based on predefined units.

I encourage you to try the app as it offers many more useful features to explore, including tiered wholesale pricing, discount codes on the cart page, in-cart option editing, and many more. It’s a user-friendly solution that can enhance your sales and customer experience :blush: .
