Convert / duplicate a section into Custom Liquid block format

[MMO1]

Hi, I want to make a convert / duplicate a section into a format that can be read by the Custom Liquid block format. How do I do this?

I tried to copy the entire .liquid file's code into a new Custom Liquid block, but it says that schema is not allowed. So I deleted all the schema, but now nothing shows up.

Thanks!

Hi, @MMO1 

You should copy the code about the block section instead of the entire section, and you also need to make some modifications.

Hi @MMO1,

Yes, because when you add code for 'Custom Liquid', it is just Liquid code and does not include Json, so everything will not be displayed.

And you also cannot declare a section within a block. You can convert section code to block and try adding it at a new block.

I hope it helps!

@AnneLuo @namphan thank you both for your replies. In this case, can you help me identify the part of this section that I can copy / convert to a block?
