Additional information:

• When creating a metafield on Shopify, it’s placed under the UNPINNED metafield list. This is because Shopify has limits on PINNED metafields, so we create them sparingly. However, if you prefer, you can easily move the metafield to the PINNED list using the Shopify admin interface.
• Please note that Shipturtle does not currently support syncing existing metafields created from Shopify. To ensure compatibility, metafields should be created and deleted directly from the Shipturtle platform.
• Shopify is not allowing to insert image in Metafiled, so Image which you insert un Shipturtle will be converted in URL In Shopify Metafiled. With the help of your website developer, you can show URL as image on your website
