How Do I Add Color Variants in Shopify?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 9:05 pm

If you want to add color variants to your Shopify product, there are a few different ways you can do it. One way is to add color swatches to your product images. Another way is to use the color picker tool in the Shopify admin.

To add color swatches to your product images:

1. Go to the Customize theme page in your Shopify admin. 2.

In the “Product Images” section, select “Color swatches” from the “Swatch type” drop-down menu. 3. Save your changes.

PRO TIP: If you are considering adding color variants to your Shopify store, be aware that this can be a time-consuming and difficult process. There is no automated way to add color variants, so you will need to manually add each variant one at a time. This can be a very tedious and error-prone process, so be sure to double-check your work before publishing any changes.

Your product images will now have color swatches overlaid on them. When a customer clicks on a swatch, the image will change to show that color variant.

To use the color picker tool:

1. Go to the Products page in your Shopify admin and click on a product that has multiple color variants. In the “Variants” section, click on the variant that you want to edit. In the “Option1 Name” field, enter the name of the first option (for example, “Color”).

4. In the “Option1 Value(s)” field, enter the values for that option (for example, “Red, Blue, Green”). Make sure to separate each value with a comma. 5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each additional option (for example, “Size”). 6.’

Adding color variants to your Shopify product can be done in a few different ways depending on what you want specifically. One way is by adding color swatches directly onto your product images which can be done by going into the Customize theme page in your Shopify admin and selecting ‘Color swatches’ from under Product Images in the Swatch type drop-down menu before saving your changes.. Another way is through using the color picker tool which can be found in the Products page under variants for a product with multiple color variants. To use it, simply click on the variant you want to edit and then fill in Option 1 Name with something like ‘Color’ and fill in Option 1 Value(s) with all of the desired values separated by commas such as ‘Red, Blue, Green’. You can also do this for additional options like size before saving all of your changes at once in one go.
