Product pages

The product page displays all the important information about the product itself.

The default product page layout has a list of product media (including images, videos and 3D images) on the left side and product details on the right side. The product section comes with some default blocks such as title, description, quantity selector, price, variant picker, inventory status and buy buttons.

Moreover, you will find two Collapsible tab blocks containing further details on Payment & Shipping and Details & Care.

On the product section level, you are able to decide the layout which best suits your styling and your product images aspect ratio.

Variant images

The Variant images setting allows you to control which images are displayed in the product gallery when a specific variant is selected. This helps keep the gallery relevant to the user's choice and reduces clutter.

  • Show all: Displays every image attached to the product, regardless of the selected variant.

  • Show selected: Displays the image specifically assigned to the chosen variant, plus any images that are not assigned to any variant (general product images).

  • Show selected group: Displays the image assigned to the chosen variant and all subsequent images in the gallery until the next variant-assigned image is reached. This is useful for grouping multiple photos of the same variant together.

Configure your product blocks

Taiga theme allows you to customize your product page with a large variety of blocks:

  • Heading: Shows the product title;

  • Price: Displays the product price. It will show eventual Compare at price when set;

  • Text: Allows to add a custom text to display additional content for your product template;

  • Product description: Displays the product description;

  • Variant picker: Adds a variant picker for choosing product variant. You can choose between Button or Dropdown styles. Check this guide or the instructions below if you want to use Color swatches feature within variant picker;
    • Use Advanced settings to override the default picker style for specific product options. This allows you to mix styles, for example, using buttons for color and a dropdown for size.
      • Options which use the dropdown picker: Enter the variant option names (e.g., 'Size') that should specifically appear as a dropdown. Separate multiple names by a line break.
      • Options which use the button picker: Enter the variant option names (e.g., 'Color') that should specifically appear as buttons. Separate multiple names by a line break.

Choose between slider, fill, or segmented display styles, add custom labels, and optionally show threshold-based recommendations to help customers make more confident purchase decisions. See how to add a True to size block with Attribute insights.

How to Control Related and Complementary Products

You can either manually select products in the Upsell and complementary products block or use a dynamic source connected to the Search & Discovery app.

Steps


  1. Open the Search & Discovery app in Shopify Admin.

  2. Go to Recommendations.

  3. For each product, set which items should appear as Related products and Complementary products.

  4. (Optional) Decide whether to use the app’s automatically generated related recommendations.

  5. Open the Theme Editor and go to a product page.

  6. Select the Upsell & Complementary block under Product.

  7. Connect the Related or Complementary metafield as the block’s dynamic source.

  8. Save your changes.

Note: When you use metafields as a dynamic source, the block shows only the products you manually set in Search & Discovery. Automatically generated recommendations are not included.

Color swatches

You can enable color swatches in the product card settings panel. When enabled the color variants will be shown as color dots on the product cards, product page and in the filtering drawer.

Color option name trigger can be edited from theme translations and it defaults to "Color". Search for "color swatch identifiers" in online store "Edit Languages" view.

We suggest also adding storefront filter for the color option. Learn how to.

Custom images for color swatches

By default swatch colors are automatically generated based on the color option value. This means that e.g. black generates color black and blue creates blue:


Default color swatch for blue and black variants:

However, these default colors are not always ideal. For that reason you can override these colors by uploading a file to Files section of your store.

If you wish to override the color black, then you should create a file named black.png or black.jpg and upload it to Files. For color names with space, replace all spaces with a dash. For example "Midnight Black" should be midnight-black.png or midnight-black.jpg

Note: Make sure that file name is always written in lowercase.

Configure sibling products

Sibling products highlighted in red

The sibling products block requires you to link the products via metafields. Before you can link the products you need to add a one time metafield definition. After that you can link the product in the admin panel's product view or through the bulk edit view (where you first need to add the metafield to a new column to edit the values).

Sibling metafield definition

Adding the metafield definition

  1. In the Admin panel go to Settings > Metafields > Products > Add definition
  2. Set the following values for the new metafield definition
    1. Name: Sibling products
    2. Key and namespace: woolman.sibling_products 
    3. Content type: Product - List of products
  3. Save the definition

Adding siblings to products

After the metafield definition is done you can add sibling products via the Product view or trough the bulk edit view where you first need to add the metafield to a column to edit the values.

  • Add the list of siblings to all of the sibling products
  • Note: The current product should be included in the siblings to show and highlight it on the product page

Sibling products are not showing up. Where is the problem?

  1. Check that you have the Sibling products block active in the product template
  2. Check that have the correct namespace and key in the metafield definition: woolman.sibling_products 
  3. Check that the product you are viewing has a list of product values in the Product siblings metafield

Why use sibling products?

Sibling products feature helps you to link multiple products as options for the end user. This way the end user can quickly jump between these different products and rather than variants only.

How to Add a True to size Block with Attribute insights

Setting up your fit guide takes just a few minutes in the Shopify Theme Editor.


Steps

  1. Navigate to product template
    In the Shopify Admin, go to Online Store > Themes, find your Taiga theme, and click Edit theme. Navigate to a product page template.

  2. Add the Attribute insights
    In the sidebar, locate the Product section. Click Add block and find the Attribute insights.

  3. Define the Attribute
    Attribute title: Enter a label like "Fit" or "Sizing” or leave empty.
    Attribute value: This is usually connected to a Dynamic Source (like a Metafield) so that each product can show its own unique value (0–100).

  4. Choose Your Display Type
    You can choose how the information looks:
    Slider: A pointer on a horizontal scale.
    Fill: A bar that fills up to the value.
    Segments: A divided bar.

  5. Set Your Labels
    To make the scale readable, fill in the Labels section:
    Start: e.g., "Runs small"
    Center: e.g., "True to size"
    End: e.g., "Runs large"

Adding Threshold Messages

To be even more helpful, you can enable Threshold messages. This allows you to show specific text based on the value. For example:

  • Below 35: "We recommend ordering one size up."
  • Between 35 and 65: "Go for your usual size."
  • Above 65: "We recommend ordering one size down."

Practical Use Cases Beyond Clothing

While "True to size" is the most common use, this block is incredibly flexible. You can use it for:

  • Food & Beverage: A "Spiciness" scale (Mild to Extra Hot).
  • Beauty: "Skin type" suitability (Dry to Oily).
  • Hobby/Gear: "Skill level" (Beginner to Pro).
  • Home Goods: "Firmness" for mattresses or pillows.
