Introduction
Product page customization in Shopify is often essential for enhancing user experience and driving conversions. Many Shopify merchants seek ways to display custom information, such as product specifications, FAQs, or promotions directly on product pages. This blog provides actionable steps to implement these customizations without relying on apps while also recommending HuskiApps’ advanced solutions for more complex needs.
Why Customize Shopify Product Pages?
Default Shopify product pages offer essential details, but customizing them enables merchants to:
- Improve SEO with unique product information
- Display upsell or cross-sell promotions
- Offer detailed FAQs or product care instructions
- Increase trust with product certifications and reviews
These improvements can enhance conversion rates and elevate customer satisfaction.
How to Add Custom Information to Shopify Product Pages
Step 1: Create a Custom Metafield
- Navigate to Shopify Admin → Settings → Custom Data.
- Click Products and select Add Definition.
- Choose a Metafield type, such as “Text,” “Number,” or “Rich text,” depending on what information you want to add.
- Save the metafield.
Step 2: Display Metafield on Product Page
- Open your theme editor (Online Store → Themes → Customize).
- Select Products → Default product template.
- Use the Dynamic Source button to connect the newly created metafield with a product field.
- Save the changes.
Tip: If you are using a HuskiApps app like iBookly Appointment Booking, you can enhance product pages by displaying dynamic booking options and special promotions seamlessly.
Step 3: Customizing Liquid Code (Optional for Developers)
- Go to Online Store → Themes → Actions → Edit Code.
- Open the
product.liquidormain-product.liquidfile. - Insert the following code to display custom metafield content:
{% if product.metafields.custom_info.additional_info %}
<div class="product-info">
{{ product.metafields.custom_info.additional_info }}
</div>
{% endif %}
- Save and refresh the product page.
