How do I add a Notes section to a specific product page?
For a text display you add and show to customers use metafield defintions, dynamic sources with a text block or a custom-liquid block/section.
If the info you add needs to go through the cart and through checkout use line item properties similar to the below info but you may want to make the line item properties hidden.
For a form field to let customers add information to items put in there cart
Use line item properties.
For vintage themes see this advanced customization.
And the UI element generator tool
https://ui-elements-generator.myshopify.com/pages/line-item-property
For OS2.0 themes like dawn you will want to use information from the vintage customization & ui-elements-generator to make an in a custom-liquid block, or section, that associates the input to the product form.
Something like the following:
{%- assign product_form_id = 'product-form-' | append: section.id -%}
The product_form_id value will vary by theme, the above is the dawn themes value logic for the product_form_id variable.

Hey @emilyperotta ,
Welcome to the Shopify Community!
Depending on how comfortable you are with coding, we do have a guide that walks you through step by step how to add custom fields to your product pages. You can check it out here. Keep in mind that this does require you to edit some of the store’s coding. As such, it’s not supported by Shopify, meaning we’re not able to fix it if something goes wrong. Whilst the guide does walk you through step by step, please keep that in mind.
If you’re unsure, I’d recommend duplicating your theme first and trying the customization there so it does not affect your live store if something does go wrong. You can have up to 20 themes downloaded at any given time.
If the above option isn’t right for you, then our next two options are Shopify Experts and Apps. Shopify Experts is a marketplace of developers who partner with Shopify. You can browse experts from different areas as well as post a job for experts to provide you quotes on. This is a paid service, but unlike apps, it’s a once-off charge, rather than a monthly cost.
With that being said, if custom coding and experts aren’t for you, I’d recommend checking out Uploadery. Although it does come with a monthly charge, it’s a great app that I use in my own store. It allows you to add a text box, and also upload images and files. If you’re looking at something cheaper, Infinite Options is also a great option by the same company that makes Uploadery.
Additionally, whilst being on the topic of optimizing your product pages, you may like to have a look at our article on Writing Product Descriptions That Sell. One of the points in the article is to focus on your ideal buyer when you write your product descriptions. What kind of person are they, and what language can you use to ensure they feel like you’re talking to them directly? Increasing the font size for readability and using easy-to-scan bullet points is also a good point.
If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
