How can I add a dynamic cover image on my collection page?

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A user seeks to add a dynamic cover image to a collection page without using the standard collection image field, which they want to reserve for a logo.

Proposed Solutions:

  • Custom Template Approach: Create a separate collection template with a dedicated image section, then assign it to the specific collection. If no suitable section exists, hire a Shopify developer to code a custom one.

  • Metafield Method: Use metafields to store alternate/additional banner images for collections. Edit the collection template to call the banner metafield conditionally—displaying the metafield image when available, otherwise falling back to the default collection image. This approach requires no separate template.

The original poster acknowledged the suggestions with thanks, though no final implementation decision was indicated.

I want to add a dynamic cover image in the collection page.

I don’t want to use the collection image field because I want to save the logo in this field.

Hey @na15

If you want to add a dynamic image to a specific collection page then you need to create a separate collection template and assign that template to that collection then in that template you need to add a section for that image and if you don’t have a section available then I suggest you to hire a Shopify developer who can custom code a section for you. Feel free to let me know if you require any assistance and I’ll be more than happy to help you out.

Hello @na15 ,

Use meatfield to add additional/alternate banner images for the collection.

Now edit the collection template and call the banner metafield.

Or you can make it conditional if metafield banner is available use it easle use default collection image.

Note: There is no need to use alternate template here.

Thanks
