How Do You Edit Metafields on Shopify?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 4:34 pm

One of the great things about Shopify is that it allows you to add extra information to your products through metafields. This can be really useful when you want to add extra details that don’t necessarily fit into the existing product fields. For example, you might want to add an extra field for a product’s manufacturer or for some additional technical details.

Metafields are essentially just key-value pairs of information that you can attach to products, collections, orders, blogs, and pages. Each metafield has its own key and value, and you can have as many metafields as you like attached to a single item.

PRO TIP: The following article provides instructions on how to edit metafields on Shopify. However, it is important to note that metafields are very powerful and can be used to make changes to your shop that could potentially break things. As such, it is important to be very careful when editing metafields, and to always create a backup of your shop before making any changes.

In order to edit metafields, you’ll need to go into the Shopify admin and navigate to the “Products” section. From there, find the product that you want to edit and click on it. On the product page, there will be a “Metafields” section where you can add, edit, and delete metafields as needed.

To edit a metafield, simply click on it and make your changes. Once you’re done, be sure to click “Save” in order to save your changes.

Adding metafields can be a great way to add extra details and information to your products. With Shopify’s easy-to-use interface, it’s easy to keep track of all your product information in one place!
