I’m trying to add a custom text input field in the product page so customers could provide their personalization data. I’m following a tutorial (can be seen here) that instruct me to add a custom liquid block. It’s an option that’s showing when you click add block but I don’t see that option in my site.
Is there an option that I need to check somewhere? Or is it a limitation imposed by the theme I’m using?
Appreciate your guidance.
Topic summary
A user is attempting to add a custom text input field to their product page for customer personalization, following a video tutorial that requires adding a custom liquid block. However, the custom liquid option is not appearing in their theme’s “Add block” section.
Key responses:
- This is a theme-dependent limitation - not all Shopify themes support custom liquid blocks in the product page editor
- Alternative suggested: Try using an HTML block instead, though this may not work if the code requires liquid syntax
- Potential workaround: Remove the
{form...}liquid code from the snippet to make it compatible - Request made to share a preview link of the specific theme being used for more targeted guidance
Status: The issue remains unresolved, pending more information about the specific theme or testing of the HTML block alternative.

Hi @aboostani
You can try to use HTML block
Yes, this is theme-dependent.
Looks like HTML would not fit in your case because the code actually uses some liquid. Worth a try though.
But, again, depending on your theme you may be able to work this around by removing the form={{…}} code from that snippet.
It’d be nice if you can share the preview link to the theme you’r woking on.
Hi @aboostani ,
This is Theodore from PageFly - Shopify Page Builder App.
If your theme supports custom Liquid blocks. Look for the “Add Block” section and the “Custom Liquid” option within the product page editing interface.
Best regards,
