Open the product page settings#
- In the theme editor, choose Products > Default product in the page selector.
- Click Product page in the sidebar.
The media gallery#
Under Media, Media layout offers two presentations:
| Layout | How it looks | Its settings |
|---|---|---|
| Stacked | Every image one below the other, scrolling with the page, while the information column stays in view. | Media aspect ratio (Original by default), Show margins around media (on by default), Show thumbnails (off by default). |
| Carousel | One image at a time in a shared frame, with arrows and swipe. | Media aspect ratio (Portrait 5:6 by default), Show margins around media (off by default), Show thumbnails (on by default). |
- Media aspect ratio: Original keeps each photo’s own proportions. The other ratios — portrait 5:6, 4:5, 3:4, square, landscape 16:9 — give every image the same frame and crop it to fill.
- Show margins around media: a white border with rounded corners around the images. Off, the images run edge to edge with a thin line between them.
- Show thumbnails: a small strip of thumbnails in liquid glass, with a progress bar. In the stacked layout it stays at the bottom of the screen while the gallery scrolls; clicking a thumbnail scrolls the page to that image.
Good to know
Videos, YouTube and Vimeo videos and 3D models can sit in the gallery. Only one plays at a time: starting one pauses the others.
Variants and colors#
Under Variants:
- Color swatches for variants shows round or square color chips for any option named Color, Colour, Couleur or Teinte. Choose the shape with Swatch shape.
- Hide photos of non-selected colors shows only the photos of the chosen color.
The full set-up is in Color variants & swatches.
The information column#
The right column is made of blocks. Add, remove and reorder them under Product page in the sidebar.
| Block | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Vendor | The vendor or an eyebrow line above the title. |
| Product title | The product name. |
| Price | The price, the compare-at price, the unit price and, when turned on, the variant SKU. |
| Variant picker | The options: swatches for colors, buttons for the others. Unavailable values are crossed out. |
| Subscriptions | Delivery frequencies from your subscription app, with a one-time purchase when allowed. |
| Buy buttons | Quantity, Add to cart and the accelerated checkout buttons. |
| Description | The product description. |
| Accordion panel | A collapsible panel for care, dimensions, delivery or returns. |
| Complementary products | Products that go with this one, chosen in Shopify’s Search & Discovery app. |
| Custom Liquid | Your own code. |
Buying controls#
- Show accelerated checkout buttons adds Shop Pay, Apple Pay and the other express checkouts under Add to cart.
- Show pickup availability tells visitors whether the variant can be picked up in store.
- Show tax and shipping note adds the tax mention under the price.
- Show the variant SKU shows the reference of the selected variant.
Tip
When Shopify tracks the inventory of a variant and does not allow overselling, the quantity stops at what is left — minus what is already in the cart — and a message says so before anything is added.
