Shopify line item properties are extra data that can be attached to products in a shop, and they can be used to customize the way that products are displayed. For example, if you sell T-shirts in a shop, you might want to use line item properties to specify the size and color of each T-shirt.
Shopify line item properties are stored as key-value pairs, and they can be used in Liquid templates to customize the way that products are displayed on a shop’s website. For example, if you have a shop with T-shirts that come in different sizes and colors, you could use line item properties to display size and color options on the product page.
To add a line item property to a product, go to the “Products” page in the Shopify admin and click on the product that you want to add the property to. Then, click on the “Properties” tab, and enter the key and value for the property.
Shopify provides some built-in line item properties, such as “product_type” and “variant_title,” which can be used to customize the way that products are displayed on a shop’s website. However, if you want to add your own custom line item properties, you can do so by adding a “properties” object to your shop’s theme code.
The “properties” object is an array of key-value pairs, where each pair represents a line item property. The key is the name of the property, and the value is an object with two fields: “label” and “type.” The “label” field is used to specify the human-readable name of the property, while the “type” field is used to specify the data type of the property (e.g., string, number, boolean).
Here’s an example of how you could add a custom line item property to a shop’s theme code:
```liquid
{{ product.properties | json }}
```
```json
[
{% for p in product.properties %}
{% if p.first == 'my_property' %}
{"label": "{{ p.last }}", "type": "{{ p.first }}"}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %} ]
```Shopify Line Item Properties are extra data fields that can be added to products in order to customize how they are displayed on a shop's website. This is done through Shopify's admin panel on the Products page by clicking on the product you wish to add properties to and selecting the Properties tab. There, you can add key-value pairs which will act as your line item properties.
You may also use these properties within your Liquid templates in order to manipulate how products are displayed throughout your site. For example, if you wanted all T-shirts in your shop display their size and color options on their product pages, you could do so by using line item properties within your template code.
Shopify provides some built-in line item properties - such as "product_type" and "variant_title" - but custom ones may also be added by creating a "properties" object within your theme code.
The "properties" object is an array consisting of key-value pairs where each pair represents one line item property. The key is simply the name of said property while its value is an object with two fields: "label" and "type". The former allows you to specify what human-readable name should be associated with your property while the latter defines what data type - such as string or number - it should be.
Conclusion, Shopify Line Item Properties provide an easy way for store owners to add extra data - such as size or color options - onto their products which can then be used for further customization down the road whether it be through Liquid templates or elsewhere.
