A user wants to display short product descriptions beneath product titles in their collection grid on a Dawn theme store. They provided screenshots showing the desired placement and their current product grid layout.
Proposed Solution:
Use Shopify metafields to store the product descriptions
Manually connect the metafield in theme code files (likely product-card.liquid)
This requires custom code modifications beyond the theme customizer’s capabilities
Current Status:
The user asked for clarification about implementation (shared a screenshot of what appears to be their setup attempt)
A developer offered to assist with the metafield coding if the user isn’t comfortable with code modifications
The discussion remains open, awaiting confirmation on the implementation approach

Hi, i’m looking to add this little product description to my product grid/featured collection where I currently don’t have anything showing. Can someone help with this? Would be super grateful! It’s on my shop page : https://environmentalpartners.com.au/collections/cleaning-products
That can be done by metafields, but since you won’t be able to connect the metafield in the product card by customization so you will have to manually connect the metafield from your theme files, most likely in a file similar to product-card.liquid.
It will require some code changes in that file so if you’re not familiar with coding then my best recommendation would be to hire a Shopify developer who can help out with that. If you want me to help with this then feel free to connect with me and I would be more than happy to do the metafield code in your theme files.
