Filter products by Metafield

You can add a filter option based on Product Metafields or Variant Metafields using the Smart Product Filter & Search app. This is useful for custom attributes like material, style, or any extra data that doesn’t come by default in Shopify.

✅ Before You Start

Make sure your metafields are already created and contain values in your Shopify admin, as well as being enabled in the app's metafield section (click here for step-by-step instructions).

• Only Product and Variant metafields are supported.

• You can’t use metafields from collections, orders, customers, etc.
