Liquid, JavaScript, themes, sales channels
Hi, I'm taking over an existing site from another developer. The site uses the Brooklyn theme. I'm simply trying to add a rich text dynamic section to my home page and must be overlooking something obvious, because I can't even get to Step 3 below. There IS no "Add Section" to click on in the Customizer. In fact, when I open the Customizer in step 2, I see this message: "This page doesn't have any sections."
Do I have to edit the theme code directly and manually add this section?

Hi @jmaddern , this stands out

What is the actual state of the theme, do you know when it was originally installed or the version number.
It's not unlikely it's so old it's a pre-sections based theme, or that the them is in disrepair.
Go to the theme store and get a fresh copy and do a comparison, you may have to do a manual update migration of the themes code.

Thanks, Paul. I think you're right. I'm looking at the schema and don't even see a version number, but it was installed 5 years ago. The dynamic sections referenced in the documentation aren't even in the settings_data config. Looks like I'll be busy doing some theme updates.
