Can a collection page be added to any template? if so how? thanks in advance!
Topic summary
A user asks whether collection pages can be added to any template and how to implement this.
Two main approaches are provided:
-
Creating multiple collection templates: Navigate to Online Store → Theme → Edit Code, add a new template, then assign it to specific collections through Products → Collections. Screenshots demonstrate the process.
-
Adding collections to other pages: Collections can be embedded into static pages, home pages, or product pages through the theme customizer by selecting the desired page and adding a featured collection section.
Additional feedback on the user’s store (Barkingbargainsfl.com):
- Positive comments on product selection and content for pet owners
- Recommendations include: adding a favicon for brand strengthening, creating a custom email address (instead of Gmail) to build trust, and standardizing image sizes across products for visual consistency
- Help documentation links and image sizing guidelines are provided
Do you mean you need create multiple templates for other collections?
Ex: A collection use A template, B collection use B template…
May I suggest to update code these steps:
- Go to Store Online-> theme → edit code
- Add new template
- Go to Products → Collections → Update template that you just have created.
Or you would like to add collection to other pages( static page, home page, product page …)
- Go to Store Online-> theme → customize
- Select page that you would like to add collection
- Add featured section
Hi there, @barkingbargains !
Thank you for your post. If you want to know whether you can add a collection page to any theme, then the answer is yes! You can find the instructions for creating collections in this help document, and then you can add links to those collections on your theme. If you’re inquiring about something else, just let me know and I can look into it!
I also wanted to check in and see how your store’s doing. Is there any part of the ecommerce process you’d like assistance or guidance with? I’m here to help if any questions come up, or if you’re looking for feedback on your store. Just let me know!
I hope this helps.
Thank you for info; I ll look at in the morning; and I am still adding items. But would appreciate any input

Hi, @barkingbargains !
Thanks for sharing that. As a cat mom, I’m loving your store! You’ve done a great job of selecting products that pet parents will find useful, and you’ve included a lot of helpful information on the store. I also love your about us page — it’s a great way to learn about your story and bond with your brand. Here’s some tips you can implement to continue improving your store.
Favicon
Something you might want to try is adding a favicon. A favicon, or favorites icon, is a small square image that appears next to a web address, and adding one to your store can help strengthen your brand and add a polished look to your website. Merchants typically make their favicon their logo or another image related to their business (in your case, you could maybe use a dog emoji!). Adding a favicon is easy, and you can find the instructions in our help document.
Image sizes
I noticed that some of the images for your products are different sizes, which can cause the store to look somewhat uneven, as you can see here:
I recommend making all your images the same size. You can also check out this blog post to find our website image size guidelines cheat sheet!
Custom email
I see you’re still using a Gmail email address for your store. A great way to further your brand and create trust in your store is by creating a custom email, which could look something like hello@barkingbargainsfl.com or support@barkingbargainsfl.net. You can read about your email hosting and forwarding options in our help document.
I hope this helps — please let me know if you have any more questions!
