DAWN 15.0.0 - How do you create a path/trail from collections to product in URL?

Topic summary

Goal: Show products under their collection path in Dawn 15.0.0 (e.g., collections/bathroom/product/jabonera) instead of the default product/jabonera.

What was tried: Following guides that suggest adding within:collections in the product template, but this did not work in the updated Dawn theme.

Key constraint: One reply states Shopify does not support nested URL paths like /collections/{collection-handle}/products/{product-handle}. Supported patterns are limited to:

  • /products/{product-handle}
  • /collections/{collection-handle}

Open question: The original poster asks for a custom alternative or workaround to achieve a collection-to-product path.

Status: No solution provided yet; the thread remains unresolved and is seeking viable workarounds within Shopify’s URL limitations.

Hi everyone!

DAWN THEME 15.0.0

I’m trying to update the url structure to include the collection name when you click on a product.

Instead of having product/jabonera I want collections/bathroom/product/jabonera for example.

I have seen many way to do it online adding within:collections to the product liquid file. But I can’t seem to accomplish it.

Please help!

P.S. this is a repost from another member… Please advise if anyone knows how to achieve this in the updated Dawn.

Shopify’s URL structure does not support nested paths like /collections/{collection-handle}/products/{product-handle}.
You an only have /products/{product-handle} or /collections/{collection-handle}

What’s a custom alternative to achieve this?
