Custom product field visible on frontend only to admins

Shopify Discussion

Hey there!

I want to add a custom field for products that the admin can fill at the backend and it will be visible on the frontend (product page) ONLY to admins.

Is there any app that can do that?

@tigranhak May this help you.

  1. Goto the Shopify App Store, and get the free app called Metafields Editor. Install it.
  2. Open the Metafields Editor app. Find the product you want to add a custom field to
  3. Click to ‘Add a new metafield’
  4. Fill in the four fields as follows:
    The namespace field is where you’d type in the kind of product that this field applies to. For example: books, bracelets, or pet collars.
    The key would be a description of the field you are adding. For example: publisher, manufacturer, or cleaning_method.
    The value type will be “string” if you will add text data to your custom field, and “integer” if the data will be numerical. You can put numbers in a “string” field, however you won’t be able to use it in calculations unless it is set to “integer”.
    Add the contents of your custom field to the “Value” box.
    5.Click SAVE

Thanks a lot for the quick response!

I followed your steps, but how can I make that value appear on the product page ONLY to the admin? Currently it is only visible on the backend.
