Modules & product fields
Written By Floris de Vries
Last updated 20 days ago
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 โ namespace, key, product or variant owner
Metaobject โ 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, โฆ).
Best practice
If a row maps to live product data, use the matching Shopify module โ not a custom attribute. That keeps Comparison and Specs accurate when products change.
