Some Metafields Do Not Display

If your metafields are created but not appearing on the storefront, the issue is almost always related to the theme template configuration.

Troubleshooting Steps​

1. Verify Liquid Code Exists​

Check that the appropriate Liquid code snippet has been added to your theme template file. Without the Liquid code, metafields won't render on the storefront.

2. Compare Working vs. Non-Working Metafields​

If some metafields display correctly while others don't:

  • Check the Type Does it match what the Liquid code expects?
  • Check the Namespace Is it spelled exactly the same?
  • Check the Key Does it match the key referenced in the Liquid code?

3. Check Template Assignment​

Verify that the products (or other resources) with non-displaying metafields are using the same theme template as the ones where metafields work correctly.

Common Causes​

Non-displaying metafields typically result from:

  • Mismatched namespace or key between the metafield and the Liquid code
  • Missing Liquid snippet in the theme template
  • Different template assignment for the resource
  • Typos in namespace, key, or Liquid syntax
