What is Accentuate Custom Fields?
Accentuate lets you define and add custom fields to various aspects of your store, including products, collections, and pages. Imagine adding things like:

These are just a few examples. With Accentuate's versatile field types, you can include text, numbers, images, even entire JSON objects to create a rich and informative experience for your customers.
Shopify Theme Integration
The beauty of Accentuate lies in its smooth integration with your Shopify theme. Using Liquid, Shopify's template language, you can easily display the custom field data exactly where you want it on your product pages, collections, or anywhere else. This ensures a cohesive and branded shopping experience for your customers. To edit your theme and integrate Accentuate, you'll need access to the theme code. There are two main ways to do this:
-
Using liquid: This is a built-in feature within your Shopify admin. Go to Online Store > Themes and click "Actions" beside your theme. Select "Edit code". This will open the theme files in a code editor. Accentuate generates helpful code snippets for you to copy-paste on your store.
- 2.0 metafields: If you are using native Shopify metafields you can use dynamic data in the sections already present on your store. Simply click on the “dynamic source” icon above the input and select the metafield you want to use.
Accentuate provides detailed documentation and step-by-step guides to help you through this integration process.
