Collections (vendor) description is missing on collections page - when visited from all Brands page

Collections (vendor) description is missing on collections page - when visited from all Brands page

Hi all,

For one our of stores we're using the Ella theme. 

We're facing a weird issue.

In our collections template, we're including title and description of the collection to be displayed. 

We have a brands page displaying all the brands (vendors) of the store, say A, B, C etc. 
When someone clicks on Brand A and lands on A's collection page, only the title is visible. Description is missing.

As in, if someone visits https://storename/collections/vendors?q=VENDOR  the description is missing.. 
However if we visit https://storename/collections/VENDOR then both title & description is present. 

 

This is problematic because most users would visit the brand's (vendor) page from the all brands page. 

I'm not sure how to fix this because the theme code seems fine. 


Any clue on how to resolve this please?

Here's the collections-description.liquid code - the part responsible for displaying title & description:

<div
  class="changing on collection collection-info collection-info--{{ position }} align-{{ collection_description_align_tb }}{% if show_sub_collection %} show_sub_collection{% endif %}{% if settings.banner_animation == 'effect_fade_up' %} scroll-trigger animate--slide-in{% endif %}"
  {% if sub_collection_layout == 'slider' %}

  {% endif %}
