Airfields is easily the best metafields app on Shopify at the moment, and the support has been phenomenal so far. Highly recommended!
Heavy using this app for several months now and its very good and helpful. Few observations:
1) Be careful with variable types. When you create some type like boolean and import boolean values to it. When Airfields opens and saves it its suddenly string type with "true/false" value in it. Its a problem because all other values are still boolean.
2) When you have Variant metafield you cant access it when you have product with only one variant. I think there should be both options in the menu "Edit product metafields" and "Edit variant metafields" just like Shopify does it with regular fields.
TIP: Its useful to create Shopify definition for Airfields metafields. So they are accessible directly from product detail. Its not possible with all types though.
All in all we ended up using regular metafields if we can because of that.
Sorry to hear you're having issues with Airfields. We regret not getting a chance to continue the thread through customer support, we didn't receive an answer to our email so we assumed the issue was resolved at the time. Nonetheless, Airfields has been around for a long time and has a large base of satisfied customers. We aim to make our customers' experience as hassle-free as possible when it comes to using our plugin. We have reached out again via email and we will do our best to find the root cause of the issues you are experiencing.
When Shopify reduced the section block limit in themes from 250 to 16, I needed to find a way to build a comprehensive ingredients section that was easy to use. We almost outsourced an app when I happened upon this, seemingly the only app to include something they call a "repeater" meta. Highly recommend! Two things I wish this app did:
1) Allow the image meta to be a complete or similar object type to a traditional Shopify image object. Complete with attributes to the image.
2) Upload to admin. It's possible to upload files to admin using GraphQL, and I'm worried someone on our team may accidentally delete the theme file that hosts our images.
