I'm wanting to add a subtitle too my new site using metafields and am struggling with getting it up and running.

Am I missing something when setting up metafields using the app or backend coding.

Cheers

@BenH40 - please check if you have an option for subtitle in the product vendor field in the backend.... you can then activate it from customizer

We have already used the vendor field and where hoping for a subtitle field that could be used.

then you will need to find some app which allows to add meta fields and
then fetch those metafields into product page

Note that product subtitle is a standard metafield definition

Hi @BenH40 

You can totally use Metafield.

Firstly, you need to create Metafield for Subtitle: https://i.imgur.com/ZMaJ86f.png

Then add the code shown in the file product-template.liquid: https://i.imgur.com/4dAh2WQ.png , code: {{ product.metafields.my_fields.subtitle }}

And finally, you go to each product and add Subtitle, it will display fine: https://i.imgur.com/f16tp0z.png

Hope it clear to you.

Please mark as a solution if you find my comment helpful. Thanks and good luck!

Hello!

Could you tell me where about I should put the code in the product template? I have tried to insert it but the subtitle pops on the top of the page or under the image.  I'm trying to get it to go below the product title but it's not working 😕

I'm trying to make it show under my product price. (probably the best spot)

The exact line you need to place the code will vary wildly by theme.

Also make sure to wrap it in a relevant html tag , i.e <div>{{ product.metafields.my_fields.subtitle }}</div> or <p>{{ product.metafields.my_fields.subtitle }}</p>

or for a standard definition <p>{{ product.metafields.descriptors.subtitle }}</p>
