FAQ
Common questions about metafields, themes, performance, and uninstalling.
Does this app edit my theme files?
No. Everything is a theme app extension. Blocks are versioned on the Shopify CDN, added and removed in the theme editor, and leave nothing behind when you uninstall.
Will it work with my theme?
Any Online Store 2.0 theme. Blocks read the theme's own font and line height variables by default, so a spec table looks like it belongs before you change a single setting.
Do I need to move my data?
No. The blocks read the metafields and metaobjects you already have. There is nothing to migrate and nothing to duplicate.
Which metafield owners are supported?
Product, variant, collection, and shop. Blocks can be placed on product, collection, and page templates.
How much JavaScript does it add?
None, except the variant description block, which ships one small script. The accordion uses native details and summary elements rather than a script. There are no external requests and no tracking.
Why does a row disappear?
By default a row with an empty metafield is hidden. Turn on Show rows with no value if you would rather keep the row with an empty second cell.
Why does my weight render as raw data?
The value is not being read as a measurement. Confirm the metafield type is Weight rather than a text field holding a stringified value.
Can I show the file size in the downloads list?
Only through the metaobject source, using a file_size field you fill in. Shopify's file object does not expose a size for a plain file metafield.
Why do I only see one block in the theme editor?
The Free plan includes the spec table block. The other five appear once you are on Pro. Shopify hosts the plan page, so changing plan happens in the app and is billed with your store.
What happens on uninstall?
The blocks stop rendering and disappear from the theme editor. Your metafields and metaobjects are untouched, because they live in your store rather than on our servers.
