Color Swatches
Limit visible swatches on product pages
Platmart Color Swatches app for Shopify now lets you limit how many swatches are visible on product pages. You can set separate limits for desktop and mobile, so customers on smaller screens see a tidier layout without losing access to the full list. A “Show more” button lets them expand when needed.
This is handy for products with lots of color or style options where the swatch row gets too long - especially on mobile where screen space is limited.
Setup
Head to Appearance tab, product display section. There are four settings:
- Limit number of visible swatches - enable the limit
- Swatches limit (desktop) - how many to show on desktop before cutting off
- Swatches limit (mobile) - how many to show on mobile (screens under 768px)
- Button text - the label for the expand button (defaults to “Show more”)
Note: this setting doesn’t apply when product display is set to Slider, since sliders handle overflow with scrolling already.
