Info popup

The Information popup appears as a clickable link with an icon next to a variant selector (e.g. size, color, material).

When clicked, the popup will appear on top of the product page with your info popup content.

Create pages for popup content

The Information popup displays content from a Page created in your Shopify admin. Use Shopify's page editor to create tables ↗ with images, links, and other rich text to display in the popup modal.

Add as many pages as you need for unique product guides to tell customers about sizes, materials, or any other details they need to know.

Set up popup for variant

Once you've created a page for your popup content, you can add a popup link next to one of your Product options ↗ (for example, Size or Material).

  1. Click Variant selector block to open settings.

  2. Enter the Option name for the product variant you want to show the popup.

  3. Under Content, click Select page.

The same page content will appear for every product that uses the same template. You can display unique popup content for different products by using metafields.

Use metafields to display unique product guides

You can display unique info popups for different products by using metafields. Once you create page content for multiple info popups (e.g. different size charts), you can link those pages to specific products by adding metafields in your Shopify admin.

Then, in the theme editor, insert that metafield as a dynamic source to automatically display the correct information.

Watch the video tutorial or follow the written instructions below.

1. Add 'Page reference' metafield

First, you need to add a Page reference metafield to your product pages. This field will store the specific page you want to link to each product in your Shopify admin.

Make sure you've created pages with your popup content before following these steps.

STEPS

In your theme editor (Customize):

  1. Click the Variant selector or Information popup block to open the settings.

  2. Click the Connect dynamic source button next to the Content option in the Information popup settings. Then click + Create Metafield.

    Alternatively, go to Settings > Custom data in your Shopify admin.

  3. Click the Products tab.

  4. Click the Add definition button in the top-right.

  5. Add a Name to the metafield that describes what it will be used for so you can remember and find it easily. For example: "Size guide".

  6. Click the (+) Select content type button and select Page under Reference.

  7. Click Save.

2. Link pages with popup content to products

Once you've added the Page reference metafield to your products in the Shopify admin, you can now enter the specific pages you want for the info popup by going to your product inventory in the Shopify admin.

STEPS

In your Shopify Admin:

  1. Click Products in the admin sidebar. Open the product(s) you want to add the info popup page.

  2. Scroll down to the Metafields section on the product page and click on the metafield you created and click Select page.

  3. Repeat these steps to update the Page reference metafield for each product.

  4. Click Save.

3. Insert page metafields in theme editor

Now that the product Metafields you created link to the correct pages for your popup content, you can insert that metafield into the theme editor as a Dynamic source.

STEPS

In your theme editor (Customize):

  1. Click the Variant selector or Information popup block to open the settings.

  2. Click the Connect dynamic source button next to the Content option.

  3. Select the Metafield that you created (e.g. "size guide").

  4. You can now view or preview your different products to ensure that the correct Information popup content appears on each product page.

  5. Click Save.
