How can I add more sections to my template?

Store Design
, , ,

Topic summary

Main issue: A merchant reached Shopify’s 25/25 section limit on a template and wants to add more sections, asking if code edits can bypass the cap and where to add the desired section on a specific page.

Key facts and constraints:

  • Multiple replies state it’s a hard Shopify limit for performance and cannot be overridden in the backend code. Official docs cited: JSON templates and section groups can render up to 25 sections; each section can have up to 50 blocks.
  • One reply claims more than 25 sections per page are possible, but links to a Shopify changelog that actually confirms the 25-sections-per-template limit.

Context/details:

  • The user wants to add more sections to https://urbanize.com.ph/pages/u-elements-collection and shared screenshots of the theme editor and the specific section they want to add. Sections are modular content areas; blocks are smaller components within a section.

Outcome/status:

  • Consensus leans that exceeding 25 sections per template isn’t possible; up to 50 blocks per section is allowed. No implementation change occurred, and the user’s last question about where to add the section remains unanswered (discussion open).
