# Create dynamic upsell blocks for every product page

> Connect the Upsell block to a product metafield, so each product page shows its own upsell products with no extra templates.

Connect the **Upsell** block's **Products** setting to a product metafield. Each product then shows its own upsell products, with no extra templates. You do this once, then fill in the metafield on each product.

## Before you start

- You need Section Store Plus or its free trial.
- Add the **Upsell** block to your product template.

## Step 1: Create a product metafield

1. In Shopify admin, open **Settings** → **Metafields and metaobjects**.
2. Under **Metafield definitions**, click **Products**.

3. Click **Add definition**.

4. Give it a **Name**, like `upsell_ss_theme`.
5. Set the type to **Product**.
6. Choose **List of products**.

7. Click **Save**.

## Step 2: Connect the metafield to the block

1. In Shopify admin, open **Online Store** → **Themes**.
2. Click **Customize** on your theme.
3. Open your product template.
4. Select the **Upsell** block.

    ![The Upsell block selected in the theme editor sidebar.](https://orka-chat.fra1.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/prod/help/6ae11b71ea5444c078d85419/import/1793138018361-file-ZjK8W9jqtf.webp)

5. Next to **Products**, click the **Connect dynamic source** icon (three stacked circles).

    ![The dynamic source icon next to Select in the Products setting.](https://orka-chat.fra1.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/prod/help/6ae11b71ea5444c078d85419/import/1793138018708-file-4P7bdrLdfn.webp)

6. Pick your metafield from the list.

7. Click **Save**.

## Step 3: Fill in the metafield on each product

1. In Shopify admin, open **Products**, then a product.
2. Scroll down to **Product metafields**.
3. Find your metafield and pick the upsell products.

    ![Product metafields on a product page, with upsell_ss_theme at the top.](https://orka-chat.fra1.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/prod/help/6ae11b71ea5444c078d85419/import/1793138020018-file-noZ7yOGjtG.gif)

4. Click **Save**.
5. Repeat for each product.

Can't find your metafield? You may have many pinned definitions. Click **View all**.

The product page now shows those products in the **Upsell** block.

## Good to know

- A product with an empty metafield shows no **Upsell** block.
- The block's other settings stay the same on every product.
- The same steps work for **Products** on the **Addons** block.
- Only products that use the template with the block show it.

## If it doesn't work

- **The metafield isn't in the list:** check it's a list of products. A single product metafield doesn't fit this setting.
- **The block shows the same products everywhere:** **Products** still holds picked products, not the metafield. Connect it again.
- **The block shows on some products only:** those products have the metafield filled in.
