Add video to a single collection page without having it show up on every collection page

Technical Q&A

  • Is it possible to add a video to only one collection page? When I add the video to a single collection page it shows up in all my collection pages.

Hi @Roseandthorn ,

Because all your collections use the same template, when you add a video, it will be visible to all. You have 2 ways to solve it:

  • You add a condition to display the video by handle collection, so the video will only show for the collection that meets the condition.

  • You create a new template and select it for the collection you want to display videos.

Are you using OS1.0 or OS2.0 theme? Please send me the theme name, I will guide it for you.

Hello and thank you. The theme name is dawn. It’s the basic free theme.

Hi @Roseandthorn ,

Please go to sections > video.liquid file and add code here:

Code:

{% if request.page_type == 'collection' and collection.handle != 'collection handle' %}hidden{% endif %}

with collection handle: is the handle of the collection you want to display the video.

Hope it helps!
