Attempting to end parsing before LiquidBranch 'null' was closed in shopify

Topic summary

A Shopify developer is encountering a Liquid template parsing error: “Attempting to end parsing before LiquidBranch ‘null’ was closed.” The error points to the closing HTML tag in their template.

Context:

  • Previously resolved parsing errors related to endif and endunless statements
  • One lingering error remains that references the closing </html> tag
  • Five error screenshots were shared showing the specific error messages and code locations

Current Status:

  • Another user offered to help by requesting collaborator access to directly inspect the Shopify theme code
  • The issue remains unresolved and awaiting further investigation

This suggests an unclosed Liquid control flow statement (likely an if, unless, for, or case block) somewhere in the template that’s preventing proper parsing completion.

can anyone help me figure out what the problem is- I had some parsing errors in regards to endif and endunless, now I have 1 error lingering that is stating Attempting to end parsing before LiquidBranch ‘null’ was closed in shopify ——and it is referring to my closing html tag.
