Custom Text Formatting in Matching Column (Step 2)
To add custom text to the beginning or end of any field in the mapping section, see the instructions below.
- Custom text can be added to the mapping section alongside the column field name, and the tag can be double-clicked to edit.
Example of custom text in the Description Field:
Result showing in Online Store:
{{Description}}
Ingredient:{{ingredient}}
Weight:{{weight}}(ml)
- Use a custom text format to include HTML links in the description.

Result showing in Online Store:
<a href = {{Description}} target =_blank> {{Description}}</a>
