Search And Filter Data Requirements
Search grid mode and collection filtering depend on product data and Shopify Search & Discovery filter setup. Prepare the product catalog before judging filters, sorting, swatches, badges, and product-card output.
Product Data To Review
| Data | Used for |
|---|---|
| Product title and description | Search matching and result card content. |
| Product type | Product type filters where enabled. |
| Vendor | Vendor filters where enabled. |
| Tags | Tag-based organization and store-specific merchandising. |
| Collections | Collection membership, custom badges, and merchandising context. |
| Availability | Availability filters, sold-out badges, and quick-add states. |
| Price | Price filters, sorting, sale display, and currency display. |
| Options and variants | Size/color filters, swatches, variant images, and quick-add variant selection. |
| Metafields | Store-specific filter groups when configured in Shopify. |
