How would i go about editing the drop-down menus on the product page for each individual product, if i got to the theme editor and edit them, the description applies to all the products
Hi there @Ourvexi . Thank you for posting your question! I’m happy to help with this.
When you edit an area in your theme editor you are actually editing a template that is applied to multiple pages. For example, when you edit your Default product page in your theme editor you are editing all pages that use the “Default product” template (which is all of your products by default). Instead of editing this product information in your theme editor, you will want to edit this on the product’s information page in your Shopify Admin using metafields.
Metafields enables you to save and display specialized information that isn’t usually captured in the Shopify Admin. We have a guide explaining how to set up and use metafields on this page. That being said, to use metafields there are ultimately three steps:
- Create the metafield definition following these steps here.
- Add the metafield value to the correct part of your store following these steps here.
- Connect metafields to your theme to display specialized information on your online store following these steps here.
I’ve included an example of what these steps may look like below:
Step 1: Create metafield definition
Step 2: Add metafield value to the correct part of your store (the product page in this example)
Step 3: Connect metafield to your theme
Please let me know if you have any other questions. I’m happy to help further!
