1. What is Product information?

🤔 How to set up the Sibling Products block?

The Sibling product block lets you group related products and display them as swatches on the product page. Unlike Shopify’s default variants, each sibling product has its own images, details, and price. This also helps with inventory management, cross-selling, and using custom product templates for each variation.

Here are simple steps to set it up:

STEP 1: Create individual products

In Shopify admin, click on the Products tab > “Add product” to create new products.

STEP 2: Put those products into a collection

  • Still in Shopify admin, go to Products > Collections
  • Click the “Create collection” button and add all sibling products you created in Step 1.

STEP 3: Create 2 product metafields

  • Still in Shopify admin, click on Settings > Metafields and metaobjects > Products > Add definition to create product metafields. 
  • You will need to do this process twice to create 2 different product metafields:

#

Name

Namespace and key

Select type

Why do you need this metafield?

1

Sibling type

custom.sibling_type

Must be Single line text exactly.

This defines what options customers use to switch between siblings, serving as a “variant picker”.

2

Sibling collection handle

custom.sibling_collection_handle

Must be Single line text exactly.

This helps to identify the individual products that are a part of the sibling.

STEP 4: Copy the collection’s URL handle

  • Go back to the collection that you created at Step 2 (Products > Collections > click on your collection).
  • Scroll all the way down, and find the Search engine listing group.
  • Click on the pencil icon.
  • Then, copy the URL handle.

STEP 5: Enter the collection’s URL handle into the “Sibling collection handle” metafield

Now, remember the individual products you created in Step 1? 

  • Again, go to Products.
  • Check the boxes of the products you want to be in the sibling.
  • Choose “Bulk edit”.
  • Click on “Columns” in the top right corner.
  • Scroll to find Metafields, tick on “Sibling collection handle” (or search Sibling collection handle).
  • Paste the URL handle you copied in Step 4 above into the Sibling collection handle column.
  • Click “Save”.

STEP 6: Enter the type into the “Sibling type” metafield

Just like Step 5 above, you need to:

  • Go to Products.
  • Check the boxes of the products.
  • Choose “Bulk edit”.
  • Click on “Columns” in the top right corner.
  • Scroll to find Metafields, tick on “Sibling type” (or search Sibling type).
  • Enter the text into the metafields.
  • Click “Save”.

For example, your products are shoes with the same design but made in different countries such as UK, USA and Belgium. So here, this “Sibling type” metafield is where you enter the UK, USA, and Belgium text.

STEP 7: Add the Sibling products block in Theme Editor

  • In Shopify admin, go to Theme Editor by clicking on Online Store > Themes > “Customize”.
  • Go to the Product page (click on the Homepage dropdown > Products > Default products).
  • Under the Product Information section, click “Add block”.
  • Find and add the Sibling products block.

STEP 8: Set up important settings of the Sibling products block in Theme Editor

Still on that page at step 6, you can see the Sibling products block setting panel, and there are 3 most important information to fill in:

  • Option name: Enter any texts you want to show as the labels for the type. For example: color, and pattern.
  • Collection handle metafield: Enter “custom.sibling_collection_handle” (which is the Namespace and key of the Sibling collection handle metafield).
  • Option value metafield: Enter “custom.sibling_type” (which is the Namespace and key of the Sibling type metafield).
  • Don’t forget to click “Save” when you finished!

STEP 9: Set up other settings of the “Sibling products” block in Theme Editor

Still in the Sibling products block setting panel, these settings may be useful to you:

  • Linking option: 
    • Load sibling products' content only: Choose when the siblings are of the same template, and the template content is mostly static.
    • Redirect to sibling product pages: Choose when each sibling has distinct rich content (e.g. product reviews) to navigate users directly to the sibling product page.
  • Option display type: Choose to show the type picker as a Button or a Dropdown.

STEP 10: 

Click “Save” when done.
