A user working with Shopify’s Dawn theme (v15.3) wants to relocate the collection description from the top to the bottom of collection pages for SEO purposes, while keeping the collection title at the top.
Solutions offered:
Code editing approach: Locate {{ collection.description }} in the main-collection.liquid file and move it to the bottom of the file.
No-code solution via Theme Customizer:
Hide the original description by adding custom CSS (.rte { display: none; }) to the Collection Banner section
Add a “Rich Text” section below the product grid and use dynamic source to pull in the collection description
Custom Liquid section method: Add a Custom Liquid section at the end of the collection template containing <div class="page-width">{{ collection.description }}</div>

I’m using the Dawn theme 15.3 version. I wish to keep the collection title at top but want to move the collection description to the bottom of the collection page as they are long for SEO purposes. Can any one help with this?
My site is under maintenance as of now.
Dear Shopify agents & partners: I cannot accept “Hire an Expert” as a solution.
Looking forward to hearing from someone who has a solution for this.
To move the collection description at the bottom, all you have to do is just find a piece of code called something like {{ collection.description }} and move it in the bottom of the file. It is usually found in a file called “main-collection.liquid”.

Add a “Rich text” section below your product grid and configure it like this –
Leave only “Text” block and use dynamic source to use collection description as source:
