Metafields let you store extra, structured data on Shopify objects — products, variants, collections, customers and pages. They are the key to displaying rich, custom content without hacks.
What you can store
Think size charts, ingredient lists, care instructions, technical specs, downloadable files, or "as seen in" logos. Instead of stuffing everything into the description, metafields keep each piece of data clean, structured and reusable across your theme.
Metafields + metaobjects + 2.0
- Metafields add custom data to existing objects.
- Metaobjects let you define entirely new content types.
- Online Store 2.0 lets you display them anywhere in the theme.
Together, these turn Shopify into a flexible content system — you can build detailed, unique product pages that competitors using plain templates simply cannot match.
Why it matters for SEO and UX
Rich, structured product information helps customers decide and can support structured data for search. It also keeps your store maintainable as your catalogue grows.
Experts Cabin sets up metafields and metaobjects so your store can present detailed product information beautifully and rank better.
