Hi,
Just created a new field that I’m trying to add to a product but don’t see it and I’m not able to expand view to see all available fields. What am I doing wrong?
Topic summary
Issue: A new product metafield isn’t appearing under the product, and the user can’t expand to “Show All” fields.
Context: Metafields are custom data fields for products; defining them doesn’t automatically display them on the product page or in theme sections.
Guidance provided:
- Assign the metafield to products: Go to Content > Products > Product metafields and ensure the metafield is correctly set up/linked to the product.
- Add it to the theme: Online Store > Themes > Customize, then add a section or block that references the metafield so its value renders on the product page.
Notes:
- Screenshots/links were shared to illustrate the admin paths and customization steps; they are helpful to follow the navigation.
- The response focuses on making the metafield visible on the storefront via theme customization, not specifically on restoring a missing “Show All” toggle in the product admin UI.
Status: No confirmation from the original poster yet; resolution unconfirmed and the “Show All” UI concern remains potentially open.
To display your new metafield on product pages:
1-Assign the metafield to products:
- Navigate to Content > Products > Product metafields in your Shopify admin: https://prnt.sc/SOu8R6RjGrVS
- Ensure the metafield is correctly assigned to your products.
2-Add the metafield to your theme:
- Go to Online Store > Themes > Customize: https://prnt.sc/T875Qg2WWrdT
- Add a section or block that references the metafield to display its content on the product page.
This process should make your metafield visible on the product page.
If you have other questions, I will also answer them.
Best regards,
Daisy
