Liquid error (sections/main-product line 2261)

[4carpers]

Hello, We’ve noticed a recurring issue on our store, and we’d appreciate your help resolving it. The error message appears as follows: Liquid error (sections/main-product line 2261): Could not find asset snippets/product-schema.liquid. This entry appears on both the PC and mobile versions of the page.

The error occurred after I tried to change the code with gpt to solve the problem with google. 

If I understand correctly, the problem lies here: {% render 'product-schema' %}.

Hello @4carpers You're exactly right — the error:

bash..

Liquid error (sections/main-product line 2261): Could not find asset snippets/product-schema.liquid

means that the theme is trying to render a snippet called product-schema.liquid, but that file doesn't exist in your theme's snippets directory.

This line:

{% render 'product-schema' %}

is the culprit, as Shopify is looking for a file named product-schema.liquid and can’t find it.

How to Fix It
You have two main options:

Option 1: Remove the render tag if it's not needed
If you (or GPT) added this line trying to improve SEO or structure data but don’t actually have a product-schema.liquid snippet, you can simply remove or comment out this line:

{% comment %} {% render 'product-schema' %} {% endcomment %}

Option 2: Add the missing product-schema.liquid file
If you do want to include structured data for SEO (which is often beneficial), you can create a product-schema.liquid snippet.

Here’s a basic example you can paste in the snippets/product-schema.liquid file:

1. In Shopify Admin, go to Online Store > Themes > Edit code.

2. Under Snippets, click Add a new snippet → name it product-schema.liquid.

3. Paste this in:

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org/",
  "@type": "Product",
  "name": "{{ product.title | escape }}",
  "image": [{% for image in product.images %}"{{ image | image_url }}"{% unless forloop.last %}, {% endunless %}{% endfor %}],
  "description": "{{ product.description | strip_html | escape }}",
  "sku": "{{ product.selected_or_first_available_variant.sku }}",
  "brand": {
    "@type": "Brand",
    "name": "{{ product.vendor }}"
  },
  "offers": {
    "@type": "Offer",
    "priceCurrency": "{{ cart.currency.iso_code }}",
    "price": "{{ product.selected_or_first_available_variant.price | money_without_currency }}",
    "availability": "https://schema.org/{% if product.selected_or_first_available_variant.available %}InStock{% else %}OutOfStock{% endif %}"
  }
}
</script>

If this doesn't work then give me a link to your website

i will try to fix it 

Thank you 😊

Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't solve the situation. We created the snippet earlier. If it helps, then: {% render 'product-schema' %} is highlighted in red and underlined in wavy line.

Can you send the link of your website or screenshot of the code ???

Thanks for the update. Since the snippet product-schema.liquid does exist, but you're still getting the error and seeing the {% render 'product-schema' %} line highlighted in red with a wavy underline, this suggests one of three likely problems:

Potential Causes
1. The snippet filename is incorrect
Shopify is strict about naming. The file must be exactly product-schema.liquid (case-sensitive, no extra spaces or .txt extensions accidentally added).

Check:

. In the snippets/ folder, the file should be named product-schema.liquid, not product_schema.liquid, Product-Schema.liquid, etc.

2. The snippet wasn't saved properly
Sometimes, if there's a Liquid syntax error inside the snippet, Shopify may silently ignore the file.

Check:

. Open the product-schema.liquid snippet and make sure the code inside it has no syntax errors. Even a missing comma or brace can cause the render to fail.

. Try using very basic content as a test:

<!-- Product Schema snippet test -->

If that works without errors, then the problem is inside your original schema code.

3. Theme file conflict or duplication
It’s possible you have multiple main-product files or the code is rendering before the product is defined.

Check:

. Make sure you're not using an alternate template that lacks access to the product object.

. Ensure the {% render 'product-schema' %} is placed after the product object is available (ideally inside the product section, after product is defined).

Recommended Debugging Steps
1. Confirm file name and path:

. snippets/product-schema.liquid

2. Temporarily replace snippet content with:

<!-- Testing snippet rendering -->

3. Preview the store again.

. If the error goes away, then the content inside your snippet was the problem.

. If the error persists, Shopify still isn’t finding the file — so it's a naming or placement issue.
