How to hide store's theme in inspector?

HI guys, 

 

we built our own shop, which is based on the "Dawn" Theme. In earlier versions we would upload the modified theme code and in the inspector we'd see:

{"name":"OUR THEME NAME","id":123456789,"theme_store_id":null};

 

We don't know when this change happened (maybe with dawn 15.0?) we see this:

{"name":"OUR THEME NAME","id":123456789,"schema_name":"Dawn","schema_version":"15.0.0","theme_store_id":null,"role":"main"};

 

We'd like to hide the fact that our theme is based on the Dawn theme and which version for various reasons. Where is the additional information coming from and how do we get rid of it?

Hi @marvic 

 

Yes, they changed it a while back but the full effect started from the beginning of February:

https://shopify.dev/changelog/updates-to-theme-information-access-in-shopify

 

But I think you can edit config/settings_schema.json and change "theme_name". For example, I tried :

[
  {
    "name": "theme_info",
    "theme_name": "Test",
    "theme_version": "15.2.0",
    "theme_author": "Shopify",
    "theme_documentation_url": "https://help.shopify.com/manual/online-store/themes",
    "theme_support_url": "https://support.shopify.com/"
  },
