Hi Nina!

Yes it can definetely be done with some code editing.

Could you please tell me what theme you're using so I might be able to guide you a bit more in details?

Thank you!

Hi Nina,

Thank you for providing me the theme you're using! This makes it easy for me!

Please go to your theme code by clicking Action > Edit Code.

Then, locate your collection-template.liquid file.

Then add this code right before the last </div> tag:

{% if collection.description != blank %}
        <div class="rte collection-description page-width">
          {{ collection.description }}
        </div>
      {% endif %}

Hit save and check if the description ALSO appears at the bottom of your page.

If it does, it means it works and you can proceed to remove the description at the top.

You can do this by hitting CTRL+F and search for: "description".

You should find this code: 

{% if collection.description != blank %}
            <div class="rte">
              {{ collection.description }}
            </div>
          {% endif %}

and this code:

{% if collection.description != blank %}
        <div class="rte collection-description page-width">
          {{ collection.description }}
        </div>
      {% endif %}

You can either delete them completely or if you want to play it safe if you ever want it back in the future, you can add : "and false" to the if statements.

Likeso 

 {% if collection.description != blank and false %}

This will always be false hence never showing the description at the top. To reenable the description at the top simply remove the "and false" to it's original state!

Hope it helps!

Hi Oliver, 

Thank you for providing this solution. I was wondering if you could provide the same advice for the Venture theme as I can't seem to locate the "collection-template.liquid" file? 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
