Would like to use Metafields in the blog pages

Hello,
workin' for a guitar brand. They want me to set up blog pages for artists. And of course we would like that when a visitor is on an artist page he could see the guitars of our range that the artist plays.
I've created custom metafields and for now I have been able to call a majority of them to the blog page with the code element.
But when it comes to the product list type of metafield it does not display the guitars the artist plays. I had looooong chat sessions with your support as well as with Shopify support. None of them had a solution and Olivia from your support team told me to request the this feature:
a proper metafield element for blog pages. It's important for us as the artists often lead people to a certain guitar and if the visitor can not find it easily on the artist page, we can loose some sales.
From the product pages we would also like to point to the artists using the guitar. Sometimes there are 6 or mor artists to show so... don't want to enter all thos datas manually.
Thanx
Best regards.

A metafield element that can be added to blog posts would be really helpful! I am trying to use this in a similar way for recipes blog posts. To be able to add ingredients, directions, nutritional information this way. So the template is always there with these as titles, and the info can change depending on the recipe source. I hope this happens really soon, and many thanks in advance.

Hi, could you provide any demo link where I can see an example of your idea (or at least a mockup). So I can discuss with my dev team about develop this feature.
Thank you

Henry Pham: Hi, Yes sure:
here you have the template that is still in progress and far from the final look.
All the social network url are metafields called by the template, same for the first two tabs (video and why Vola). In the third tab we would like to see a list (with image of the guitars used by the artist. I used a Product list type of metafield, but the only thing we see is the waord ProductListDrop. Same on the public page:
I've used code element to achieve that but Your support team told me that a proper metafield element would be the solution and asked me to request this feature for blog pages.
Thx
