I am wondering if there is any way I can link a custom color to a product variant without having to make each color of the product an individual product.
The reason is because I want to make my client’s website very dynamic and slick- he is starting to sell shirts and I want the color theme of the product page color coded to the color variant of the shirt he is selling.
Hmm, okay it looks like there’s no way to add custom fields to the Product Variant.
My original idea with the Multi-reference is to create a collection called “Variants” (or something similar). You would then create a custom field for Colors among other fields in that collection list. Then you could add the Multi-reference field in Product Variants to link variant to a color. This would give you the ability to select the BG Color from the multi-reference field on the variant page.
It can get very confusing because of how many things link together. But I bet you can find another way of setting this up. It just won’t be very orthodox.
