Note: This tutorial will explain how to add several generic metafields and associate them with different collections. The metafields will have one of each data type in order to show you the possibilities of the Metafields Manager app. You should tailor your metafields to satisfy your business needs and use this as a reference instead of a step by step example.
Go to Metafield Configuration and click "Add Metafield" under collections.
Add the following fields:
Your configuration should look like the image below:
Find the collection you want to add metafields to. You can do this in 2 different ways.
One way is through the metafields app. Click on Add Metafields. Then select collection from the dropdown menu and click Search.
The other way is through the Shopify dashboard. Navigate the collection as you normally would through the shopify dashboard (click collection find the collections you want to edit and click the link.). Once you're on the collection page in the Shopify dashboard, click the "..." button on the top right and select Add Metafields to collection.
Once you've navigated to the collection that you want to add the metafields to, you simply need to fill out the form with your data and then click Save Metafields.
After entering sample data, your collection page should look like the image below.
Now that your data is saved to the collection, you can access it on your Shopify template by using the .liquid code snippets at the bottom of the page.
Now that you have the data set up. You can create the .liquid snippet that will display the test object. We created an example for you to download here. Be sure to include the snippet on your .liquid template by adding this line:
{% include "mm-metafields" %}
