Overcome Shopify Variant Limitations by Using Metafields

Discouraged by the Shopify limit of 100 variants?
Limited by the max of 3 product options?
Frustrated trying to group variant images together, so customers aren't confused?
Annoyed by all the apps?
This video outlines a new approach to solving all those issues ... by using a native feature of Shopify, called Metafields.

Hi Teara, it's really helpful to see this option in use, thanks! Can you give any infer on how these fields are added as variant pickers/buttons?? When adding meta fields, it looks like there is only the option for text based ones...

for everyone if you have less than 100 variants this coding is useless, you can do it with every basic image swatcher

Ah, really cool solution. Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you.

[BadLuckFPV]

Would have really liked to know upfront that this would require coding.

How does this look on the admin side of things when an order is placed? Is there a way to have an individual SKU created for the combos?

hi thanks for good video. I have 20 products and a sample selection of 4 products. is it possible to 4 "product" line with a drop down menu so that each dropdown shows my 20 products in the customer can choose from. so in the end the customer can choose 4 products out of a minimum of 20 coffee products so they have 4 samples they can have sent home.

what I have tried is to make 4 rows with all 20 products and it exceeds my maximum for product selection in shopify and becomes too heavy. wondering if you can do something via metadata

Thank you for this! I currently am still trying to set it up properly on my end. Would you be able to help me with this. I need the same functionality that you have on your store there but for some reason I can’t get the other variants to show.

Hi I'm trying to implement this solution and I have it working on the front end but the variants do not show up in the cart. Are there any more reference videos on how this is exacuted?

If we have two products, we need to display two different fabrics in the swatch for single color. help me

I have a product that has 3 main variants and each variant has different variants. So if you choose Variant A it will direct you to the variants associated to A. If you chose variant B it directs you to the variants associated to B. Is it possible to set this type of situation using metafields and metaobjects?

[Alessandro_Alessandro]

HI ) Does the price change depending on the selected metafields ? or does it not work as a full-fledged blowing option ?

[umslopogaas]

Is there any way to have variant specific information in PDP?
Let's say I have a variant called Size and it has 3 options, Large, Medium and Small.

Now what I want to show is a piece of text snippet depending on the which options I'm currently selecting. Each text snippet is different and which one will be visible will depend on which option is currently selected.

Is there any way I can set variant's options metafield like this?

Thanks in advance.
