Blogposts Categorization

Topic summary

A Shopify store owner using the Dawn theme seeks a free solution to categorize blog posts. Community members have provided two main approaches:

Tag-Based Filtering:

  • Use Shopify’s built-in tagging system to create categories
  • Requires adding custom code to main-blog.liquid file
  • Creates a filter menu displaying all blog tags
  • One responder shared a working demo showing the implementation

Complete Layout Replacement:

  • Another user suggests replacing the entire main-blog.liquid code
  • Includes additional features like sidebar categories, featured images, and custom category tags
  • References a live example site for visual reference

Current Status:

  • The original poster shared a screenshot but hasn’t confirmed which solution they’re pursuing
  • Multiple follow-up requests for clarification remain unanswered
  • Both solutions involve theme code editing rather than app installation
  • Code snippets and visual demos have been provided for implementation
