How to set up Subcollection Links - Theme Symmetry

Store Design

Topic summary

A user needs help adding subcollection links to their Shopify store using the Symmetry theme. They’ve successfully implemented this feature in one section but can’t replicate it elsewhere.

Solution provided:

The recommended approach involves using Shopify’s custom fields (metafields) for collections:

  1. Navigate to Settings → Custom Data → Collections
  2. Add a new field definition
  3. Select field type as URL
  4. Search the collection list file and call custom metafields code
  5. Go to theme code editor
  6. Access Collections section
  7. Add subcollection URLs within brackets

The discussion includes screenshots showing the desired outcome, though the text appears partially corrupted in the original posts. The solution focuses on leveraging Shopify’s native custom field functionality rather than hard-coding links.
