How to Bulk Edit Product Template (Template Suffix)

Templates in Shopify are a group of sections arranged to give your store a consistent design and feel. The sections you can include in your templates depend on the theme you are using.

When you rearrange a template, your changes apply to every page that uses the template. If you decide to mass-change the templates for a set of products, it would be very convenient to set the templates per product from a spreadsheet app like the Mixtable Spreadsheet Editor instead of going to the product pages one by one via the Shopify admin.

Here’s what the manual change looks like:

Change Product Templates in Shopify Admin:

1. Go to the product page
2. In the sidebar, locate Template Suffix and choose the desired product template from the drop-down.

Change Product Templates in Bulk with Mixtable Spreadsheet Editor:

1. After installing the Mixtable Spreadsheet Editor, load a Mixtable Workbook with Products - Basic (without variants) (unless you don’t have one already)
2. Sync the Template suffix data in a new column.

3. Use the spreadsheet to change the product template for the products you need and sync it back to Shopify.

The Mixtable Spreadsheet Editor app makes it easy to edit Shopify data in one place. Changes can be easily synced back to your Shopify store with just a click. You can use spreadsheet functionality like sorting and filtering and bulk editing like find and replace, changing prices with certain percentages, and more.
