Where can I find a dedicated space for feature requests in Shopify?

Topic summary

No Dedicated Feature Request Portal

Shopify currently lacks a centralized space for feature requests. Users must submit suggestions through community forums, where staff like Luna manually collect and forward feedback to developers.

Key Feature Requests Submitted:

  • Metafields: Import/export functionality for the new metafields system; URL metafield picker similar to theme settings
  • Collections: Ability to compare “Compare At Price” vs “Price” fields for automatic “On Sale” collections; variant-based collections instead of product-only
  • Checkout/Invoicing: Dedicated VAT number field for EU compliance
  • Product Management: SKU/Price/Cost filters on main Products page; default Draft status for new products instead of Active; internal product notes
  • POS: Modifiers feature for cafes/restaurants
  • Orders: Add line items to existing orders; update shipping methods/costs post-purchase; multiple tracking numbers per purchase order
  • Technical: Split-screen code editor; fix CSS input field auto-reload interrupting typing; BIMI email branding support
  • UI/UX: Store-level favicon management; file search in image selector; display product titles (not order numbers) in customer order history

User Frustration:

Multiple users express disappointment that Shopify lacks a structured voting/tracking system for feature requests, unlike competitors such as Wix. The current forum-based approach is described as chaotic and opaque, with no visibility into roadmaps or development priorities.

Another missing feature for metafields is that the URL metafield type input should work as the URL field type input type, making it easy to link products, pages, etc.

The missing features are not only the picker, also the relative paths and the linked object reference.
