adding a collection-list section to a collection template

Shopify Discussion
1

Hi everyone,

I’m using the Responsive theme on Shopify, and I’m trying to add the Collection List section to my Collection page (not the homepage). The theme already has a collection-list.liquid file, but it doesn’t appear as an available section in the Theme Editor when editing the Collection page.

The reason i want to add this to the collection page is because i want a sub collection of that big collection featured on that given collection page.

I checked collection-template.liquid and collection.json. I tried adding {% section ‘collection-list’ %} to collection-template.liquid and updating collection.json to include “collection-list”, but it still doesn’t show up in the editor.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

May be you can turn this to a section by adding presets attribute to the schema to let you have the option of collection list as section.

Or you can create a custom section that lets you choose and display the collection list. The first solution i am not sure about but you can definitely make a custom section using the code from the collection-list file.
