Hi everyone,
I am currently looking to see if its possible to create a section of Collections within my Lamborghini page, once I click on it. The problem I am having is that when I click on the Lamborghini Page and go to edit the Page; it shows it as the Main Page/Default Page. So whenever I add a section to the Lamborghini Page it adds it for all the different Brands of Vehicles.
Look forward to hearing back from the Team!

@GrTR3 The reason for this, is that you are only using the same page template on all of your pages.
To create a different page style (assuming that you are using the customizer), you have to create a new page template. Depending on which theme you are using, this can be done pretty quick, but you’ll have to duplicate and rename some liquid-files in the code editor.
Which theme are you currently using?
Is it Shopify OS2.0 compatible?
Hi @Finer ,
I am currently using the Ella Theme which is Shopify 2.0 compatible. So I would have to create a New Page Template named Lamborghini and then link that new page that I created in the Theme editor.
Thank you for the reply back!
@GrTR3 Yes exactly! I have not worked with the Ella Theme, but I think since it is OS2.0 compatible, following steps should work:
Go to the Theme ⇾ Edit Code and look for the page.json file under TEMPLATES and copy all the content.
Beneath Template, you click on create new template and choose “page” from the dropdown, chose JSON as Format and add a new template name (e.g. lamborghini).
In the page.lamborghini.json you replace the code with the code you have copied before and save.
On the Product page you apply the new page template (page.lamborghini).
In the customizer you can add your section, that will only appear on this page.
I think this should do it.
Hi @Finer ,
I was able to create the New Template Page for Lamborghini, but do I have to change the Theme template to the new page template I created which was page-Lamborghini? Would this allow me to see the new page for Lamborghini?
Look forward to your response and also appreciate the help.

@GrTR3 you have to apply the new template (page.lamborghini) to the “Lamborghini”-Page.
After that, you can edit the Lamborghini page in the customizer and add the collection list section.
Hi @Finer ,
Would I have to publish the theme first to see the New Theme template (Page.Lamborghini)? For some reason it only gives me these options?
Look forward to your response!

@GrTR3 Yes, you’ll have to publish the theme.
Alternatively, you could create an identical page template in the published theme with the same name and apply it to the page.
This way you can make adjustments in the draft theme.
Hi @Finer ,
Would you be able to walk me through this step of creating an identical page to work on it through the draft theme?
Look forward to your response!

@GrTR3 if your published theme is also the Ella Theme, the steps are identical to the steps we made before to create the page.lamborghini.json. Then you’ll have to create a new random page and apply the page.lamborghini template to it. This random page will only be a placeholder as long as you could work on it in the draft theme. Since the content edited in the customizer will apply to all pages with this template. You can apply it to the lamborghini page once you publish the darft theme.
If you don’t create the random “placeholder” page, your current lamborghini page will only show placeholders images and texts instead of your content.
