Show swatches on collection pages

Turn swatches on for product cards, and keep the cards from getting crowded.

Swatches on collection pages are off by default — every option starts at Do not show (Default). Turn them on for the options that help shoppers choose, and leave the rest hidden so product cards stay readable.

Turn on an option

1. Go to Options and open the Collection page tab.

2. Find the option and set Display on Desktop to a style — or to Same as Product page to mirror what you already chose there.

3. Set Display on Mobile, or leave it on Same as Desktop.

4. Click Save.

Hide an option again

Set Display on Desktop back to Do not show (Default). The picker confirms it: swatches will not be shown on collection page.

A typical setup shows Color on collection pages and hides Size, Material and anything else — shoppers pick a colour from the grid and choose the rest on the product page.

Keep cards tidy

Products with many values can overflow a product card. Two settings help, both in Settings → Swatch on Collection Page:

• Limit Swatches — hide extra swatches and show a "More" button, with separate limits for Limit on desktop and Limit on mobile.

• The Carousel toggle in each style's Appearance settings puts the swatches on a single scrollable line instead of wrapping.

See Swatch on collection page.

Make the card update when a swatch is clicked

By default a swatch on a product card only marks the selection. Turn on Dynamic Swatch in Settings → Swatch on Collection Page and the card's image, price and link update instantly to the chosen variant.

Hiding an option on collection pages while other options stay visible can make a product look sold out when it isn't: the card works out availability from the first value of the hidden option. If a product shows as unavailable on a collection page but not on its product page, check which options you've hidden.
