How to fix duplicate page layout issue in Shopify 2.0 Flow Theme?

tritonebear_0-1661467333012.png

My chassis page and contact page have the same layout. I am not familiar with shopify 2.0 and only know how to fix this issue in the old version with all liquid files.

I am editing a new theme thats not published. Its a different website that we hope to launch. All of my other pages are working splendidly, but I just cant seem to get the contact page and chassis page onto their own separate pages.

Typical/old fixes wont work because now all the Themes are now Jsons and the sections are Liquid.

Anyone else with this problem have a solution?

Hi @tritonebear

I would suggest you create a different template for the chassis page. Please follow the instructions here

@tritonebear -

the problem is that both pages use SAME default page template.

Shopify uses shared templates, therefore any change to any page will reflect on all the pages which use this same template.

Therefore to change them separately, you will either need different template for each page(which is not feasible if you have many pages) or you will need to use page builder like pagefly.

Hi @tritonebear ,

You can totally create different templates for different pages and then assign your pages to a specific template with the page editor

  1. From your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Themes > Customize

  2. Select Pages > Default Page from the page selector then click on Create template

  1. Edit the template then save it.

Next, you’ll need to assign pages to each template:

  1. From your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Pages

  2. Use the search filter to locate the page that you want to change, or click on the page from the list of existing pages.

  3. In the Online store section, use the dropdown menu to select a new theme template to apply to the selected page.

  4. Click Save.

I hope it helps.

Since its not my live theme, and theres another theme I do have live, Im assuming I’ll have to wait to assign some pages once the theme I am working on goes live?

@tritonebear - you can check preview of the working theme which is not live

Hi @tritonebear ,

That’s right. You can only assign templates of the live theme.
