Get started with Chirpy basics in this comprehensive overview.

Product Page Customize

In this tutorial, we’ll walk through modifying a Shopify theme to:

  1. Replace the standard variant picker with icon-based buttons.
  2. Display additional product info using metafields.

Prerequisites

  • Basic understanding of HTML, CSS, and Liquid.
  • A Shopify store with access to the theme editor.
  • Familiarity with Shopify metafields.

🔧 Task 1: Icon-Based Variant Picker

Step 1: Understand Default Variant Picker

Most Shopify themes use a <select> dropdown to allow customers to choose product variants.

We will replace it with clickable buttons that represent each variant option (e.g., color icons).

Step 2: Add Icons or Swatches

You can use SVGs or font icons (like Font Awesome) to represent each variant.

Example: For color variants, assign an icon or colored circle.
