How Do I Add Product Filters to Shopify?

Last updated on October 2, 2022 @ 1:59 am

Adding product filters to your Shopify store can help your customers find the products they’re looking for more easily. There are a few different ways to add product filters, and the method you choose will depend on the type of products you sell and the way your store is set up.

If you have a small number of products, you can add product filters manually by editing each product in your Shopify admin. This is a good option if you only need a few product filters, and if you don’t mind adding them one at a time.

To add product filters manually:

1. Go to Products > All products in your Shopify admin. 2. Click on the product that you want to add a filter to. 3. In the Product details section, click on the Add a filter link.

4. Enter the name of the filter in the Filter name field. 5. In the Filter values field, enter the values for the filter, separating each value with a comma. 6. Click Save changes to save your changes to the product.

If you have a lot of products, or if you want to be able to change your product filters easily in the future, then using a Shopify app is a good option. There are a few different apps available that will allow you to add product filters to your store, and they all work in slightly different ways.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to add product filters to your Shopify store, be aware that this is a complex process that requires knowledge of Shopify’sLiquid templating language. Failure to properly implement product filters can result in broken links, incorrect product data, and other errors on your store.

Shopify apps that can help you add product filters include:

• Product Filter & Search by BoostCommerce: This app allows you to create unlimited custom filters for your products, and it also includes a built-in search function. It’s available from the Shopify App Store, and it has a free trial so you can try it out before deciding whether to buy it.

• Smart Search & Instant Search by Searchanise: This app includes both automated and manual filtering options, as well as an instant search function that shows results as you type.

Regardless of which method you choose, adding product filters to your Shopify store can be a helpful way to make it easier for your customers to find what they’re looking for. By taking some time to set up product filters, you can make sure that your customers have a positive experience when they visit your store
