Metafield for related products

Topic summary

Goal: show the individual products included in gift sets on the product page, similar to the linked Lush example (image and link provided are central to the desired layout).

Key points:

  • The poster wondered if this uses metafields and asked how to manually select products without recreating them.
  • Response: Some themes have a section to add products manually; otherwise, Shopify’s “related products” are auto-generated recommendations and won’t let you hand-pick items.
  • To manually control which products appear, you need either:
    • A custom section that allows selecting specific products, or
    • Edit/extend the Featured Products section to enable manual product selection.

Latest update:

  • In the Be Yours theme, the manual option does not exist out of the box.
  • Solution requires coding a custom section (HTML/CSS/Liquid). A contributor offered off-thread help; no code was provided.

Status: Unresolved. Action needed is to implement a custom section or engage a developer to add manual product selection on the product page.

I have a few Gifts sets available on my store and i would like to show the products that are included in them.

Like it is here

https://lush.co.za/collections/gift-sets/products/all-the-best-gift

I believe they are using metafields but do i have to re-create each product as a new entry. How can i manaully select each product and add them on my product page

Thanks

I ain’t very good at manual stuffs but look if your theme provides a section where you can add products manually in columns.

If it does not you will have to create a custom section since related products are basically recommended products from Shopify. To have the ability to add your own products you will need to create a custom section or use the featured products section and edit code to let you choose the products.

no i am using the Be Yours theme - and this option doesnt exists

any help creating that section would be appreacited

That will be a custom section which will need some coding, html, css, liquid to let you add a section and choose products of your choice.
