How can I hide a metafield from the product grid?

Topic summary

Hiding a Shopify metafield from the product grid filters is the core issue. A metafield is a custom data field in Shopify; it’s currently appearing as a filter option on the collection/product grid, and the user wants to exclude it.

Access and review steps: The helper requested the store URL and password to inspect the front end. The user couldn’t share the password publicly, provided a screenshot showing where the metafield appears, and then sent the site and password privately via WhatsApp.

Current status: The helper indicated a need to review the front end. The user followed up asking if their site was checked. No technical guidance or solution has been provided in the thread yet.

Key artifact: A screenshot is central to understanding the placement of the metafield in the filter UI.

Outcome: No resolution; pending the helper’s review of the site. Next action is for the helper to examine the front end and propose a method to exclude the metafield from filters.
