Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureSpec Hero stores every specification as a real Shopify metafield, so it works with Shopify's own storefront filters, search, and bulk editor. Define a global spec set plus a set for each product type, then fill in values across your catalog with a spreadsheet-style grid or a CSV import. Spec tables render in your product page HTML, including a full variant matrix.
Pick which product metafields belong in the spec table, give each one a label, an optional section and unit, and put them in order. Add the Spec table block to your product template from the theme editor. Each product page then shows its own values: text, numbers, yes/no, weights and sizes, ratings, dates, lists, linked products and metaobjects. A Compare table block puts the product next to two or three others.
- Specs stored in your own Shopify metafields, so native filters work
- A global spec set plus sets per product type, assigned by collection or tag
- Fill hundreds of products from a grid, a paste, or a CSV with error reporting
- Variant matrix tables that put every size or length in one spec sheet
- Spec table on product pages from the metafields you choose
- Your own labels, sections, units and row order
- Compare table: the product next to up to three related products
- Three styles (lines, zebra, cards) that pick up your theme's fonts and colors
