Configuring swatches

Swatches are configured in Theme settings → Color swatches:

  • Trigger words — option names that trigger swatch display (default: "Color, Colour, Couleur, Farbe, Renk")
  • Color mappings — map color names to hex values or image files

Claro also supports Shopify's native swatch.image and swatch.color metafields for swatch configuration.

Variant images

When a customer selects a variant, the product gallery automatically scrolls to the variant's assigned image.
