1. What is product specification?

Product specifications refer to detailed information about a product's features, components, measurements, or other relevant details. This comprehensive overview is particularly suitable for products with complex structures or compositions, such as materials, dimensions, nutritional information, or any other relevant metrics. 

These specifications serve as a valuable resource for consumers seeking specific details about a product before making a purchase.

2. How to show product specifications in the table?

a) Using Plain Text:

Within the section, add a "Specs" block.

Configure the following settings in the block:

  • Enter the title for each row of specifications.
  • Enter the specific details or values for each row.
  • The row titles and contents will be displayed in the table format.

This method is suitable for scenarios where multiple products share the same specifications and values.


b) Using Product Metafield Values:

  • Within the section, add a "Product Metafield Values" block.
  • Add a row title for each specification.
  • Add the corresponding metafield values as row content.

This method is applicable when different products have different specifications. Please note that you can use Shopify's bulk update feature in the admin panel to mass update values for this metafield. Additionally, all types of metafields can be used here.
