You are here:
Estimated reading time: 1 min

As you know, our app provides an add-on function to increase the main product price when choosing a specific option value – of course – these add-on products are not for sale.

In this guideline, we will help you to hide these add-on items from:

  • SEO
  • Shopify predictive search
  • Shopify search page

There have two main steps to achieve that:

  • Step 1: Create a custom definition
  • Step 2: Bulk add metafield to add on products

Create a custom definition

Steps to manage

  1. From your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Custom data.
  2. Select Product
  3. Click Add Definition.
  4. In the Name field, enter a name for your definition, and then select the name that you entered from the list. For example, “SEO Hidden”.
  5. In the Namespace and key field, edit the default identifier for your metafield. For example, “seo.hidden”.
  6. In the Access option, select Storefronts.
  7. Click Select type, and then select “Integer”.
  8. Click Save to finish.
