Using metafields with "image with text" -section

Hi,

I have +10 products in my store and I need to show different “Image with text” -section in each product page.

  1. Is that possible using metafields (I’m using 2.0 themes). If yes, which metafield is the best?

  2. Or should I just create own product page -template for each product page?

Thanks,

  • KJ

Hey @Kjankko-US ,

you can definitely use metafields and I think that’s gonna be the best solution.

If you would like to use the image-with-text section, I guess you want to upload a different image, title, description, button link and button label for each product right?

My recommendation for the metafield content types is following:

  • file for image
  • Single line text for title
  • Multi-line text for description
  • Single line text for button label
  • URL or page for button link

Then, you just insert dynamic source for each field on the product page.

If you need any further assistance, let me know.

Hi @Niki_K & @Ramolly001

I figured that out and the problem is solved, thank you!

Second question: Can I show specific products on the product page → on “Product recommendations” -section?

I want to decide myself which products need to show - is that possible with metafields?

Hey @Kjankko-US .

I think that without digging into the code and changing the structure of the recommended section, it won’t be possible.

However, there is one app developed by Shopify called Shopify Search & Discovery.

This app enables you to choose recommended products for a specific (source) product. You can hide the auto-generated product recommendations for the specific (source) product and use only the products you want .

Since you have 10+ products, I think that it won’t take you much time to set it up.

Hope this helps!

Thank you for that Niki!

Just setting up the app to store and tested with one product.

I noticed that the auto-generated-recommendations appear in my test store.

Do you have an idea, why I can’t click the checkbox?

Hey @Kjankko-US ,

I think the reason is that you need to add a related product (or related products) manually at first in this section:

And then, you will be able to uncheck the checkbox.

Let me know if it works!
