This tutorial covers how to use Shopify's new Metaobjects.
First introduced at Shopify Winter Editions, Metaobjects provide a new way of storing structured information on a store. Metaobjects can be used in your Shopify admin and you can also choose to display them in your online store via the customizer or via liquid code in your theme files. If you have an Online Store 2.0 theme, then you can connect most Metafields with metaobject references to your theme by using the theme editor.

Perfect! This is the tutorial I was looking for! After completing it, I feel like I've had an epiphany, and my understanding of Shopify has become much clearer!

[CleanCanvas]

This is really great stuff Jan. 2 mins in and already you have shared more understandable info about Metaobjects than Shopify has😁. Metaobjects are very cool and powerful, but the tricky part is to help people understand how to think about them. Great video.

[saurabhyadav]

I have seen lot's of programming, non programming and other learning videos but man you are the best among them..
everything is crystal clear.

[TheloniousBird]

Great job! I sometimes have the hardest time understanding Shopify's documentation, but you explained this perfectly.

[coadywhitsel]

Extremely easy on the eyes, great voice, and wonderful descriptions of what these things actually do on Shopify. Thank you!

Hey Jan. Thank you for all the tutorials. I've been working as a Shopify dev for 2 years now.
I really like how Shopify implement these stuff including email, flows, search app and more. Even though it needs improvement. Thanks man.

Thanks Jan! Finally somebody explained how to use Metaobjects :) You've just got a new subscriber here :)

[ptyprph]

This is exactly what I've been waiting for! Thanks for making this so clear to understand Jan :)

Shopify has become such an amazing plattform! Your videos are exactly what i needed to solve an issue i had in useing the metaobjects. Simply amazing work you provide! As suggestion, it would be helpfull to see a diffrent video with the focus on the coding part of html, css and liquid. Therefore creating more examples of these custom metaobject pages.

[RamanKumar-uvmf]

Great video! You have shown everything step by step with dynamic value using Shopify customizer settings. Thanks!!

[kiran]

Omg i think this is amazing, helps so much to have custom content on seleceted product pages referenced with metafields(metaobjects in them) instead of creating several different product templates cause making changes in product templates is a pain when you have 100 templates

[TimmyInvestor]

Great content, breaks info into digestible bits and shows real examples with info. Thank you!

But when you select "Men " section, only one product shows up. I am trying to do it but in my case all products in one section are there. How do I get to only ONE product?

[chilimaxxx]

Thank you so much!! I've been trying to understand with Shopify's documentation but it's so hard to get. You made it super simple to understand. Instant subscribe! 😀

[patkars]

Thank you so much for your exceptional ability to explain things.

I have an issue with my custom products. I followed your video to code that but now when someone clicks a different option it shows sold out and when the page is refreshed it's no longer sold out. HELP!

Hi there!

Your video made me one step closer to acomplish my goal.

But I'm having issues. I want to display a list of a few features of a product, like waterproof and things like that. Each item on the list has an icon and a text. On the .liquid file, The metafield is returning to me as string (I can't loop it), so I transformed it into an array using shopify functions. I managed to get each line gid on shopify but, when trying to recover the object with that ID, I get nothing returned. Do you mind add an explanation on how to do that, using code, when I need more than just one entry of metaobject in a product please?

[alinabourova]

Thanks a lot for this video tutorial Jan! Now this thing has much more sense

[sarah-roh]

Thank you! Best video yet explaining Metaobjects vs Metafeilds!
