trying to add text in the product page customization but the text appears in all of the products

Topic summary

Problem: Adding custom text via the theme customizer shows on every product; needs unique text per product.

Key solutions proposed:

  • Alternate templates: Create and assign different product templates to specific products so text is confined to those templates. A Shopify help link on creating new templates was provided. Alternate templates = separate product page layouts you can assign per product.
  • Metafields: Create a product metafield (custom field) for “custom text,” populate it per product, and update the product template to render that metafield. This ensures each product displays its own text.

Notes and caveats:

  • Conditional logic (e.g., hide a block if the metafield is blank) may require advanced theme customization.
  • No code snippets were shared; guidance is conceptual with a documentation link.

Status: Actionable guidance provided (templates or metafields). No confirmation from the original poster that the issue is resolved.

Hi @Aviio :waving_hand: Use alternate templates, see the manual

https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/themes/os20/theme-structure/templates#create-a-new-template

For deeper logic such as a block or section not appearing IF a metafield is blank that requires advanced theme customizations.

Use Shopify Metafields to add unique text for every product. Make a new product metafield and fill it with your personalized wording for each one. Lastly, add the metafield to the product template by updating it. This will guarantee that every product has a unique text.

Use Shopify Metafields to add unique text to each product. Create a metafield for custom text, enter specific text into each product, then edit the product template to display it. This ensures that the text is unique to each product.
