Editing Dimension Metafields

With Shopify you have the ability to create metafield definitions for dimensions like weight, length and volume.

You can use Ablestar Bulk Product Editor to edit these values. Choose if you prefer the 'In-App Edit' or 'Spreadsheet' method:

1. In-App Edits

There are two options available to bulk edit dimensions:

Set to Value
Delete Metafield

Setting the Dimension field also includes a required unit of measurement selection.

2. Spreadsheet Edits
