We are publishing an NFT collection through our Shopify store, but Shopify seems to be missing the ability to show traits and rarity ratings, similar to what is seen on Opensea. I won’t go in to the reasons why we don’t want to use Opensea (apart from the rampant piracy and copyright infringements). I just want to figure out how to expose the traits on the product page. I presume tags would get close, but then they don’t allow trait type to trait descriptions. It would just be a list of the descriptions themselves. Having a plugin to do this (using JSON trait metadata) would be very popular for those looking to move away from the big marketplaces for better copyright protections.
Topic summary
Goal: Show NFT traits and rarity on a Shopify product page, similar to OpenSea’s trait panels (trait type:value pairs and rarity ratings from JSON metadata).
Constraints: Native Shopify tags are insufficient because they don’t map “trait type” to “trait value”; they would only list values without structure. The poster prefers avoiding big marketplaces due to piracy/copyright concerns and seeks a plugin that reads JSON trait metadata.
Responses: A community member does not provide a direct solution but points to other Shopify Community discussions on selling NFTs and the NFT application form, suggesting those threads include sellers and developers who might help. They also link general educational articles explaining NFTs and how to create a collection.
Status and outcomes: No app, code snippet, or concrete method was identified in this thread. The request for a plugin or technique to render JSON trait metadata on product pages remains unresolved and open.
Hi, DocSatori
Look or ask questions in these topics, as there are guys here who also sell NFTs and there are also developers there. Maybe they will help you find the right solution for displaying the description.
