At the bottom of my product pages is a section called “You May Also Like”. I need to edit this section to remove a vendor from showing up in the results. My problem is I can not find this section to edit it. I have looked under collections and it’s not listed there. I have looked at apps and nothing there makes sense. I have looked at the store editor and can’t find it. I have the Dawn theme.
Hi, @giftsfulfilled . I’m happy to help you out with this!
The “You may also like” area you’re speaking about is the Related products section that can be found in the Default product template in your theme editor. I’ve added a screenshot below to help explain where to find it. The products that appear in this section are auto-generated by Shopify based on criteria like products that are commonly purchased together, have a similar product description, or products in related collections. These recommendations become more accurate over time as more order and product information becomes available.
If you’d like more control over the product recommendations that appear you’ll want to use the Shopify Search & Discovery app. You can learn more about the Search & Discovery app here. We also have more information on customizing product recommendations using this app, here.
Please let me know if you have any questions!
Thanks Erin, I found the code so I think I may end up just removing it all together. The problem I have is that we have private label customers and their products end up in the recommeded section and they are not available to general public so I have to get those out of there.
Hey, @giftsfulfilled !
I’m helping Erin out with some replies today. Thanks for getting back to us!
You can definitely remove the section if you don’t feel like you need it. Alternatively, you can manually choose products to be included in the product recommendations section (and select all the products that aren’t from this particular vendor). You can do this using metafields, and more information can be found in this help document.
Please let me know if you have any other questions!
Thanks Greta, I will check that out. I found the html code where this section is located but have no idea how to edit the html to remove a vendor from the choices that are auto filled in. The Search and Discovery App doesn’t replace this section so that won’t help with this particular issue. I’ve pasted the code below if you can tell me what to paste and where I can update that easily enough, but all my searches don’t turn up how to edit this code to do what I need it to do.

Hi, @giftsfulfilled !
Thanks for confirming, and I appreciate your patience.
I’m not able to advise you on custom coding changes as that is out of my scope of support. However, I recommend contacting our live support team through the Help Center to determine whether our theme specialists can make this change for you. To contact our team, head over to the Help Center, enter the details of your question into the chat assistant, and select I still need help.
Please let me know if you have any other questions!
Hi, @giftsfulfilled !
Thank you for sharing that screenshot. I recommend clearing your cache and cookies and/or using an incognito window to access the Help Center and try the steps again. You’ll want to type in the details of your issue such as I need theme assistance to make a custom change and then click “I still need help”.
Please let me know if you’re able to connect with a support advisor!
I got through finally and was told to hire an expert so I just deleted all the code and made the section disappear.
Thank you for that update, @giftsfulfilled !
Not all customizations are supported by our team, and when that is the case, we recommend hiring a Shopify Expert. You can find more details in our design policy.
But I am glad to hear removing the code worked for you! I hope your product pages work better for your purposes now.
Please let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with!
