Modules & product fields

Written By Floris de Vries

Modules are the building blocks of Product Specs, Comparison, and Tabbed content.


Product information modules

  • Product option (set option name, e.g. Color)

  • Product type / Product category

  • Vendor

  • Description

  • Price

  • SKU / Barcode

  • Weight

  • Rating

  • Collections

Content modules

  • Rich text

  • Data table

  • Image

Reference modules

  • Metafield reference — namespace, key, product or variant owner

  • Metaobject — referenced metaobject field

Custom attributes

Use for merchant-specific specs that are not standard Shopify fields (warranty text, battery range, material blend, etc.). Choose a value type when relevant (text, measurement, number, boolean, link, …).


Best practice

If a row maps to live product data, use the matching Shopify module — not a custom attribute. That keeps Comparison and Specs accurate when products change.
