Adding text or metafield to the featured collection on homepage

Topic summary

Goal: Add a subheader/extra text to each product in the Dawn theme’s homepage featured collection, alongside title, price, and add-to-cart.

Initial issue: Attempts using metafields didn’t work, and the product loop couldn’t be found in featured-collection.liquid; partial section code was shared without the loop.

Proposed approaches: Edit the featured-collection section file to locate the product loop, then render product.title, price, and a metafield (e.g., product.metafields.extra_info.sub_title). Guidance emphasized backing up the theme and familiarity with Liquid/HTML/CSS.

Resolution: A YouTube tutorial was shared and followed; the implementation worked perfectly per the requester’s confirmation.

Technical notes: Metafields are custom product fields that store additional data (e.g., a sub-title) and are output in Liquid via product.metafields.namespace.key. The featured collection is a homepage section that iterates over selected products.

Artifacts central: Code snippets and the video tutorial were key to the solution; the initial screenshot was not essential.

Status: Resolved; no open questions remain.
