Linking alternative products using metafields in Shopify

You’ve seen a grid of alternative colours for products on a product description page before and in fact I’ve described how to achieve this in Shopify using tags. This is one that instead of using the product variants, uses individual products per colour.

Now you can also use Shopify’s new metafield definitions to do this as well.
