Shopify themes, liquid, logos, and UX
Hi all,
I have a question similar to this one. I would like to have more detailed, unique descriptions on each of my collection pages for SEO purposes. So a small description at the top, then the products and page switch numbers and then the additional unique text. I have searched but all answers require changing the liquid files in the theme code. However, I only have .JSON files - no liquid files - so I cannot follow the required steps.
I'm fairly new to Shopify and a complete coding noob. If someone could let me know how this works in .JSON - or knows an easy to use app to add these text fields - it would be greatly appreciated. My theme is DAWN. Thanks!
Kind regards,
Niels

Actually, you may not need a code, since OS2.0 themes support this out of the box.
You can add a new section at the bottom of the collection template (all in Customize) and then make it use dynamic sources for its content.
You'd need to create a new metafield for your collections where you will store this extended description and then use it as dynamic source.
Hi @BoxBaas ,
It's customization work, for that you need to hire a developer or need a developer help,
to add this feature with custom code.

Hi @BoxBaas
Just wondering if you could shed some more light. I have added some unique copy at the top and bottom of two pages in my store; collections/all and a subsequent page.
I only want the unique text to show on the first page, not those that follow i.e. the collections/all is 1/7 so I want the copy on the first page but not 2-7?
Do you know how I can fix this? currently the copy I want on the 1st pages has been duplicated to all pages?

Will give this a try and see if I can make it work. Thanks!
It worked! Thank you so much. Related question: since the text comes from a dynamic source, will this affect SEO? The main reason I want extra text added to the collection pages is for better SEO scores.
Absolutely. Search bots know nothing about what's under Shopify bonnet, it only sees the final rendered html which will include your texts, so yes, this should affect SEO.
i cant get this to work, can you add a different text per collection?
