How to use Shopify Metafields (custom fields)

hey this is young from let's go chop,off' i and in today's video i will give,you a quick overview on Shopify meta,fields also sometimes referred as,Shopify custom fields so that you can,start using them today and let's get,started alright so in my last video we,were working on adding some tabs to the,product page so that you can maybe have,the description in one tab and then some,additional details about the product in,the second tab and maybe some,information on the delivery in the third,tab but the problem with this setup,right now is that all these values are,hard-coded into the theme file and we,can also have a quick look on that so,for example here we have the first tab,with the product description which is,already dynamic so that's great,but here we have the second tab which,contains this HTML table with two rows,and we display the material and the,weight but since these values are,hard-coded into the theme file they will,appear on every single product page,and so we can find them on the product,page for the vanilla candle but also on,other product pages for example for this,pillow and this doesn't make too much,sense right now,so I think this is a good use case to,introduce meta fields to display this,information dynamic and let's see how,this works so the first advice I can,give you when it comes to shop if a meta,fields is to use an app and I mean there,are ways to manage your meta fields,without any app but for the sake of,simplicity and especially if you're,building this for someone else then you,want to provide an easy to use and good,looking interface and so I went to the,Shopify App Store and simply searched,for our meta fields and you can see,there are plenty of apps and they come,with different pricing but also with,different functionality so for example,some have CSV import which might be,interesting if you have hundreds or even,thousands of products but for this video,we will stick to the meta field guru app,because at the point I record this it is,totally free and it comes with a very,intuitive interface and they have some,great features to come in the future,so I already went ahead and installed,that up to the Shopify development store,and now we can have a look inside the,app but let's open it and once this,loads you will be presented with all the,objects that can have meta fields,assigned to them for example we have,collections products and maybe even blog,posts but as we were interested in,product for this video let's open the,product section and right here you will,find a list of all the products,available on your store so let's search,for the vanilla candle,and you can see that it doesn't have any,meta fields right now but let's create a,new meta field and now we have to define,a namespace and the key and with these,two attributes we can later access the,meta fields value so let's give it the,namespace of details because it belongs,to the product details and for the key,we can use material and then we have the,value type

How to work with Metafields on Shopify Themes

嗨我是 Shopify 的佈景主題開發人員推廣者,在這段影片中我們要學習使用中繼欄位,在 Shopify 商店的個別頁面中顯示自訂內容,中繼欄位是關於特定資源的資料,可以在相關的頁面顯示,建立自訂資料與產品產品系列,和其他網路商店資源的連結,即可增加商家可用的核心欄位,創造出更好的個人化效果,隨著 Online Store 2.0 推出,原生系統就能支援中繼欄位也可在 Liquid 使用,使用者可以在佈景主題程式碼,以及 Liquid 區段設定中找到,現在就來看看佈景主題開發人員能怎麼利用中繼欄位的威力吧,先來看開發商店的網路商店管理介面中,建立中繼欄位的方式,點擊設定並進入中繼欄位,就能看到可以建立中繼欄位的不同素材,包含子類商品系列顧客等,現在我要為產品建立中繼欄位,可以看到我已經建立了兩個中繼欄位,這些是我剛才建立的,點擊「新增定義」並建立新的中繼欄位,我現在可以為這些中繼欄位輸入幾個不同的屬性,在名稱欄輸入「國家/地區」,我想顯示這個產品的生產國家/地區,接著是「命名空間與關鍵字」,命名空間就是,中繼欄位隸屬的群組,你可以為不同的中繼欄位類別,建立不同的群組或命名空間,而關鍵字就是中繼欄位的名稱,輸入關鍵字即能代表,存取與中繼欄位相關值的方式,描述欄是選填欄位,這個欄位只是紀錄與參考之用,而選擇內容類型,則是發揮效用的關鍵,你可以在這裡發現許多功能強大,且可以做為中繼欄位的內容類型,例如日期與時間,可以在此設定產品自某個日期開始提供,或者特定的運送資訊,日期與時間會是很好用的中繼欄位,也可以設定產品的尺寸資訊,例如重量體積密度,在這種情況下非常好用,除此之外還有 URL 和檔案,可以在此輸出自訂影像,但現在的重點是文字,因為我們要輸入的是國家/地區名稱,所以我們只會使用文字,此外還有一些驗證的選項,我已經建立了國家/地區中繼欄位,建立完成後,我要回到產品,在管理介面中,選取任一產品點擊「編輯產品」選項,可以在頁尾看到中繼欄位區段,顯示了我們正在編輯的「國家/地區」,另外是自訂影像可在此選擇檔案,而「國家/地區」欄位只能填入單行文字,我可以在此輸入文字,我可以輸入製造國家/地區然後點擊「儲存」,這樣一來就建立好與產品相關的中繼欄位,在我們學習如何透過佈景主題編輯器,存取中繼欄位之前,我想先示範中繼欄位在佈景主題程式碼中應用的方式,這是佈景主題的「主要產品」區段,我要在此輸入剛才建立的中繼欄位定義,如你所見我用大括號將產品中繼欄位定義標註起來,與 Liquid 物件的方式很類似,這是我們剛才建立的定義,product.metafields.myfiedls.country,並且加入 .value 讓系統回傳值,同樣地 myfields 是命名空間 country 是關鍵字,value 可以回傳值,我們再次用大括號標註這些數值,就像 Liquid 物件一樣,儲存後回到我的商店,點擊產品頁面,可以看到中繼欄位正在顯示,與產品相關聯的中繼欄位「葡萄牙」,就是從這個中繼欄位載入或說顯示的,這個方法用途很廣,你也可以直接在程式碼中使用中繼欄位,此外你也可以指派中繼欄位,或者套用 liquid 篩選條件,用法就像 Liquid 物件,可以套用篩選條件,這裡有一個包含影像的中繼欄位,我要套用影像 URL,我要指派寬度並使用 liquid 篩選條件,標記成影像標籤,儲存之後,前往包含影像中繼欄位的產品,就能看到影像顯示在頁面中,這是我剛才透過管理介面指派的影像,這個方法很好用,使用方式很廣,接著我們還要來看自訂 liquid 區段存取的方式,首先,前往佈景主題編輯器,打開已指派「國家/地區」中繼欄位的產品頁面,加入自訂 liquid 區塊,我們已經知道可以使用大括號,透過 liquid 存取中繼欄位,也能在中繼欄位定義中輸入值屬性,因為這也是一個自訂 liquid 區塊,所以也能加入 HTML,並在中繼欄位的周圍新增內容,這個作法可以讓顯示方式更有彈性,這是一個區塊所以也能移動位置,儲存區塊之後區塊就會出現在,所有相關聯的產品頁面中,這樣一來就能在產品頁面中看到,中繼欄位呈現漂亮的內容欄位區塊,但不是所有產品,都要包含國家/地區中繼欄位,因為這個區塊已包含在範本中,所以不需「國家/地區」中繼欄位的產品也會出現這個區塊,進而導致產品頁面出現中繼欄位空白的區塊,為此我們可以透過 liquid,使用 metafield.value 物件,建立一個條件限制只在值存在時,才顯示區塊或區塊中的內容,我們能使用控制流程文字來建立條件,限制系統僅在中繼欄位存在值時才執行動作,如果中繼欄位不是空白的,頁面才會顯示「生產國家/地區」內容,為了示範,我們要回到自訂 liquid 區塊,設定剛才所說的條件,你可以在這裡看到如果產品中繼欄位,「myfield.country.value」不是空白,還有包含元件的段落元件,再加入條件,這個作用就是檢查,國家/地區值是否存在,如果值不是空白就能執行其他程式碼,也就是段落,如這裡所見在我加入程式碼後,沒有中繼欄位的產品,就不會顯示中繼欄位了,但若回到包含中繼欄位的產品,就會顯示「葡萄牙製造」,這就是透過 liquid 納入中繼欄位,建立動態內容的方式,建立佈景主題時別忘了加入,自訂 liquid 區段與自訂 liquid 區塊,讓商家可以直接透過管理介面編輯器,編輯中繼欄位,設定類似的條件,接著我們要來看看動態資源,動態資源會以特定的輸入設定連結中繼欄位值,也就是說想存取中繼欄位的商家,可以省略輸入中繼欄位定義的步驟,只要從區段設定新增即可,怎麼做呢？,舉例來說我們可以在產品頁面新增文字區塊,如你所見文字欄位中有幾個佔位符,以及「插入動態資源」,點擊文字欄位上方的按鈕,即可顯示所有可存取的中繼欄位,例如文字類型以及前面提過的內容類型,這裡有一個「國家/地區」中繼欄位,可以新增至此,點擊這裡再點擊插入,就能看到文字顯示,同樣地我們也能在此新增文字,這個功能很好用,因為這能讓商家快速地,插入不同的動態資源,在管理介面建立中繼欄位後,中繼欄位就能在商品頁面與商品系列頁面中以動態資源的方式顯示,也能在其他商品或商品系列的頁面區段中顯示,舉例來說若首頁有精選商品系列區段,就能在此存取動態資源,這對商家來說非常好用,可以增加中繼欄位的應用方式,建立佈景主題時請務必加入足夠的欄位,好讓商家同時套用動態資源,某些商店資料屬性例如產品名稱與廠商,都已經是預設動態資源,示範一下回到產品頁面,看看主要產品區段與不同區塊,可以在頁首看到文字區塊,這是 Dawn 佈景主題你也可以去搜尋 Dawn,看看其中的設定,在第一個文字區塊中,能看到稅金設定和廠商動態資源,這是系統的標準預設動態資源,無須建立中繼欄位,如果你想瞭解,在佈景主題程式碼中指派特定預設動態資源的方式,你可以前往產品.JSON,可以在此看到所有區塊的設定,而在文字區塊中你可以看到,我們新增了 product.vendor 的 liquid 物件,新增文字設定的值後,就會看到動態資源自動出現在此,這個功能很強大,這樣就能讓商家使用,帶點自由度的

Collection Filters in Shopify 2.0 - Full Tutorial & Concepts

shopify 2.0 has completely changed the,way that filtering works,we now have a brand new filters section,under the navigation in the shopify,dashboard we can finally filter by price,we can filter by product options like,size without having to tag products with,the size or the price as we had to do,previously on the other hand we are,losing tag based filtering and i know,that's a big deal for many of you,especially if you have a large store,your entire,catalog may have been organized around,tags and now you have to rethink your,whole system it's maybe even a deal,breaker for you with upgrading to,shopify 2.0 but don't worry i'm going to,give you some tips on how you can,transition from the old tag based,filtering system to the new one in,general in this video i'll quickly,discuss the differences between the old,filtering system and the new one in,shopify 2.0 then i'll move on to kind of,a tutorial format i'll teach you,everything about setting up filters and,i'll show you lots of examples first i'm,going to show you how to set up basic,filters like size and price then i'll,show you how to create your own custom,filters using fields my example will be,filtering by fabric and you'll be able,to filter by cotton wool or polyester,and you can apply this knowledge to,whatever it is that you sell it's going,to be the same concept i'll also briefly,talk about color filters and why this is,the most difficult kind of filter to set,up and finally i'll discuss filtering,apps there are a couple of situations,when,filtering apps might be the best,solution for your store for example if,you still really need filtering by tag,and you also want filtering by price and,other advanced filters right then you,might need to use an app but first let's,talk about the difference between the,old filters and the new ones so finally,filters are now a built-in part of,shopify instead of being a feature of a,theme,that's very important difference this is,the reason why,the whole system has changed filtering,in shopify used to be done inside of the,theme some themes had filters and some,did not,so if you wanted filters firstly you had,to get a theme that actually offered,that feature and what you would do is,you tag your products and then you set,up the filters inside the theme,customizer not inside the shopify,dashboard but inside the theme right and,this was very inconvenient because every,theme had a different way of setting,them up you had to read the instructions,for that particular theme and then you,had to name your tags accordingly right,so,usually with underscores or dashes or,some specific format so that those,filters got grouped and they would show,up in the correct way this was bad for a,few reasons firstly it's confusing there,were many times when a client asked me,to help with a bug when really it was,just a matter of naming the filters,correctly it was also time consuming,because you had to manually tag all of,your products or you had to use some,kind of bulk editin

Database Design for Custom Fields

In this video, you'll learn about designing your database to handle custom fields,A common requirement for applications is to be able to allow custom fields, or user defined,fields, to be captured by the application.,The database the application uses would need to handle this.,One common example of this type of application is a CRM or anything that stores contacts.,You've got some core fields about a person, such as first name and last name.,But some contacts have a work address, others have a mobile number, some have a company.,Some applications also allow you to add your own custom fields as well,For example, a new address type, or phone number type, or a particular type of date,that applies to that record only This seems handy to have in the application,But how do we design our database to handle this?,This is a common problem as it's not an easy one to solve.,You'll find many posts on Stack Overflow and Reddit about this.,In this video, I'll explain eight different solutions that can be applied.,Now, eight solutions might seem like a lot.,But they are just options for you.,You can look at these options and determine which one will work the best for your application,and database.,There is no one perfect solution for all situations, but there should be one here that will work,for you.,I'm also not going to say that this solution will work all of the time, or never to use,this solution.,I'll make some suggestions and recommendations, but it's your decision as you know the database,and application the best.,For each solution, we'll look at an example using a customer database, but it can also,be applied to a product database or any other design that may need custom fields.,I'll list the pros and cons for each solution as well.,Let's get into it.,The first solution is called Entity Attribute Value, or EAV.,It's called this because there is a single extra table that stores three columns: the,entity name, the attribute name, and the attribute's value.,The entity refers to a record in another table.,It could be a customer_id, which would be the field in the customer table it relates,to.,The attribute would be the title of the field you add.,So, if the user adds a field called "Business Phone" to a particular customer, then this,value would go in this field.,The value column is the value of the specified attribute for that entity.,If the user adds the "Business Phone" field for a customer, then this is where the phone,number would go.,Is the EAV a good design?,The short answer is no, it's not.,It should be avoided in almost all situations.,Why is that?,Why would you use the Entity Attribute Value design?,And why should it be avoided?,One advantage is that they take up less space for "sparse" columns, which are those attributes,that only apply to a small number of rows.,If you have 1,000 customers and only a few of them have this Business Phone number field,,then you don't need a new column just for a couple of values.,Another advantage is the flexibil
