Easily extend your Shopify store with custom fields
Building on Shopify's powerful metafield concept, Accentuate Custom Fields provides you with unprecedented options for enriching and personalizing your Shopify content
Accentuate integrates seamlessly with your Shopify admin giving you a simple yet powerful interface to define custom fields and to edit values for your products, collections and more in their right context.
You can define custom fields for
- Products
- Variants
- Collections
- Pages
- Blogs
- Articles
- Orders
- Customers
- Your shop
You can choose from a set of different field types
A field's type define what you can store in the field and the way you interact with the field when you type in values. We provide types for:
- Single line text
- HTML
- Numeric input
- Checkboxes
- Selection lists - for selecting one or multiple values from a set of options
- Datepicker - with support for various date formats
- Range slider - to pick a specific numeric value from a defined range
- Images and PDF files
- Color selections
You can link content together
Define custom fields to cross reference products, collections, blogs, pages and even link lists. Great for building related products, image galleries, linking a blog post to a product and much much more.
Where do I enter values for my custom fields?
All of the different object types in Shopify (products, collections, pages etc.) have a "Details" page - on these pages you will find an "Apps" button in the menu bar with an entry labeled "Custom Fields". This will show you an editor for that specific object and show you the set of fields, that you defined for the type. You determine the sequence of the fields for each type.
Can I bulk import and export custom field values?
Absolutely. You can export a CSV file with products, collections, pages etc. together with your defined custom fields, edit the file's contents and import it back into your store.
Where are my values stored? Is it safe?
With one exception, all your custom field definitions and values are stored as metafields within your Shopify store. Metafields are an integral part of the Shopify platform and provide secure storage for your data. Images and PDF files, however, are stored on our secure Amazon S3 server and served to yur visitors via a global CloudFront CDN.
How do I display the custom field values?
Using metafields as the underlying storage for custom fields makes them very easy to integrate into your design theme using plain Liquid. Please see examples on our support page http://accentuate.io.
Please note
The app installation requests write access to your store in order to be able to store metafields for the different Shopify objects such as product, collections, pages etc. Rest assured, that Accentuate does not modify or delete anything in your store other than the Shopify metafields we use as the foundation for your custom fields.

Easiest way to handle lots of metafields.
Great app!! They always reply back very quickly and even added a new feature to solve our problems
I tried several apps to manage metafields but this is certainly the most powerful.
I contacted customer support for a problem on my theme and I immediately received a response with the solution to several of my emails.

(written by Damian, a web developer)
Accentuate Custom Fields is absolutely brilliant. I honestly think ACF should be part of Shopify itself, it's so good. It's simple to use for the average user, but flexible enough to meet the needs of developers .
I come from a Wordpress background, and for a long time have used plugins like pods.io to add extra fields to Wordpress objects. Pods is fantastic, so I was curious to see if something similar existed in Shopify-land.
Shopify uses metafields to store data, but provides no user-friendly frontend to create or edit metafields. That's where Accentuate Custom Fields comes in. It lets you create all kinds of fields for a wide variety of Shopify object types, and provides a clean, no-nonsense user interface which makes data entry a pleasure.
Some of the field types supported include numbers, amounts, textareas, dropdown lists, checkboxes, files (such as images, or documents like PDFs) and colours (with a handy colour picker). There's also reference fields, which let you select an item from a list of Pages, Collections, and other shopify object types.
For developers, it's easy to display the contents of metafields on the frontend of your site with basic liquid tags. The Accentuate Custom Fields system was so useful I was able to build a pseudo page layout system for the theme used on a customer's website, which breaks each page down into blocks, similar to the way the Theme Customizer works in Shopify.
Without a doubt though, the most important feature of this application is not the software itself, but the people behind it. The developers have been very proactive and even suggested ways to make my life easier, given the way I was using their product, and came up with improvements in response to feedback I provided. It's support like that which makes all the difference.
This app is a must-have for just about any shopify store that could use customization. And at the price point it is being offered, including it in any project is a no-brainer. Do yourself a favour and give it a try - you won't be disappointed!

Honestly, I've only used this on products so far, but this seems like the best/least hacky solution for dealing with metadata that I've seen on the App Store. 10/0 would recommend.
