Why do all products have the same description on my Sense theme store?

I am using the theme Sense to build my shopify store. I have finally gotten all of the products uploaded and organized into collections–I am now experiencing an issue wherein the Ingredients, and directions tabs all contain the same description.

I started by doing one product, and then as I went through to add the ingredients and directions to the others I realized that the site was not letting me create new ingredients and directions for each product–rather, each product was a repetition of those two sections for every single one.

If anyone knows how I can rectify this issue, please let me know.

Thanks!

Hi @hh119

Are you updating those fields from the Theme Customizer?

Settings for a resource template are for all resources(products,collections,etc) that use that template.

Avoid putting product data|content into theme settings.

Either

  • put the information into the product description
  • use metafield definitions as dynamic source or used in custom-liquid blocks|sections.
  • Or make alternate templates for each different ingredient list.

As suggested by Paul, using metafields for this purpose seems to be a nice idea. Displaying metafields on the product page might be slightly different depending on what theme is used in your store, but in most cases putting a proper Liquid code snippet into the product page template file does the trick.

Here’s the link to a great step-by-step tutorial on how to display a metafield on the product page. It works for both OS 2.0 and legacy themes.
