Hello,

Let’s say I have a product meta field called Flavors (single text) with multiple predefined options: Chocolate, Cherry and Vanilla.

I want to make a page with Liquid (or an app) to list the Flavors’ predefined option values for a result similar to this:

Flavors

  • Chocolate
  • Cherry
  • Vanilla

The ultimate purpose would be to create an “index” page so users can “Browse by Flavor” (and similar for other meta field list options). The values would be linked perhaps to a collection URL with the “Flavor” filter set to “Vanilla”, for example.

Or, is there a better way to go about this? Maybe an app that will let me filter collections to show a similar result. Any advice is appreciated.
