I want to add a product attribute for admin only, and don’t want to display on product page.
Is this possible in shopify?
Topic summary
A user wants to add a product attribute that is only visible to admins in Shopify, while keeping the product visible on the storefront.
An initial reply suggested setting the Product Status to Draft, which would hide the entire product and not meet the requirement.
After clarification, the proposed solution is to use product metafields and set a value for each product as needed. Metafields are custom fields in Shopify’s admin for storing additional data per product.
Images/screenshots are provided and are central, showing where to create product metafields and how to assign values in the Shopify admin.
No changes to the product page/theme were discussed; the focus is on storing the attribute in the backend via metafields.
Outcome: A practical approach (product metafields) was suggested. The original poster has not confirmed implementation, so the discussion appears open.
Hi @syed_usama ,

What do you mean “product attribute”? If you want to hide on product page, you just need to change the Product Status to Draft
