How do I assign different colors to the same option value across multiple products?

Updated over a week ago

Swatch King seamlessly syncs with your Shopify store, identifying unique product options for display under the Product page settions and Collections page settings section. If "Color" has been universally applied as a product option across diverse products like pants and shirts, Swatch King recognizes a single "beige" option value for color selection. This scenario presents an opportunity to optimize how you differentiate color shades across your product range.
​

To Achieve Distinct Color Representations:

Swatch King supports the use of distinct naming for product options among different product categories, enhancing the customer experience with accurate color swatches.
​
Here's a guide to optimize your color option names:

  • Use Distinct Option Names: For clarity and precision, tailor your option names to the product category, such as "T-shirt Color" and "Pant Color." This practice allows Swatch King to process them as unique options.

  • Configure Variants Accordingly: After setting distinct option names, you'll see "T-shirt Color" and "Pant Color" listed as separate entities on the "Product page settings/Collection page settings" page within Swatch King. This distinction allows for the assignment of different swatch values to similarly named colors (e.g., two variations of "beige"), guaranteeing the accurate display of each product's color variant.

  • Ensure Visual Accuracy and Clarity: Adopting specific option names enhances the visual representation of each variant, aiding customers in making informed decisions based on the provided color swatches.

Implementing This Approach:

By assigning unique option names to different product types, you maximize Swatch King's capabilities, ensuring an accurate and appealing presentation of each product variant.
