Available Settings
Show SKU
Location: Section Settings → Show SKU
Type: Checkbox
Default: ✅ Checked (enabled)
Options:
- ✅ Checked - SKU column is visible in the table
- ❌ Unchecked - SKU column is hidden from the table
Use Case: Uncheck this option if your products don't use SKU codes or you want a cleaner table layout without the SKU column.
What it affects:
- When enabled: The table displays a "SKU" column showing each variant's SKU code
- When disabled: The SKU column is completely hidden from the table
Advanced Customization (Requires Developer)
To customize other aspects of the Quick Order Matrix beyond the Show SKU setting, you'll need to edit the theme code. Common customizations that require developer work include:
- Changing text labels (column headers, button text, stock status labels)
- Modifying colors (stock badges, buttons, table styling)
- Adjusting layout (spacing, image sizes, footer position)
- Changing the stock threshold (currently hardcoded to 10 units)
- Adding custom columns (Vendor, Weight, Custom Fields)
- Changing the product limit (currently 200)
- Adding product search or filtering
- Custom JavaScript functionality
- Integration with third-party apps
For these advanced customizations, see the Troubleshooting & FAQ page for guidance on when to hire a developer.
