Code for setting up a Private collection using Dawn theme

Store Design
1

Hi there,

I have watched a ‘How to Video’ and it was fairly easy to follow for me to create a VIP only access collection. When I create new template using the code I was given in tutorial the words like ‘VIP’ & ‘Collection’ should then be green to be active but mine stay red.

I have already set up the VIP collection creating the ‘Conditions’ with ‘must equal to’ being ‘VIP’ but in drop down under Vendor I cannot see VIP and I guess that is due to the code still being ‘red’.

I am not a coder as you can tell but I thought the process was fairly easy until it’s not. : )

Can anyone help please. Thank you Below is the code used.

{%if customer.tags contains ‘vip’%}

{% section ‘collection’ %}

{%else%}

{{ pages.no-access.content }}

{%endif%}

Hello and thank you for your quick response.
My shop url is https://www.thesistahoodau.com

I have set up everything ready including "VIP AREA ONLY’ under Main Menu,
Collection is done as well but nothing will link together without the
correct code.

Many thanks
