How to hide empty collections in the Studio theme menu?

I’m working with the studio theme and want empty collections to not show up in the menu. I’m using the mega menu. TIA!

@Maygin_Theresa welcome to the Shopify Community,

You just need to add a conditional logic to the collection list template in the theme files

Online Store > Edit Theme Code > Theme files > collection-list.json

{% if collection.products_count != 0 %}
no collection will show untill it have products.
{% else %}
all the products will load if they have products.
{% endif %}

Thanks

thanks

Thank you. My collection-list code looks like this

{{ ‘section-collection-list.css’ | asset_url | stylesheet_tag }}
{{ ‘component-card.css’ | asset_url | stylesheet_tag }}
{{ ‘component-slider.css’ | asset_url | stylesheet_tag }}

{%- style -%}
.section-{{ section.id }}-padding {
padding-top: {{ section.settings.padding_top | times: 0.75 | round: 0 }}px;
padding-bottom: {{ section.settings.padding_bottom | times: 0.75 | round: 0 }}px;
}

@media screen and (min-width: 750px) {
.section-{{ section.id }}-padding {
padding-top: {{ section.settings.padding_top }}px;
padding-bottom: {{ section.settings.padding_bottom }}px;
}
}
{%- endstyle -%}

{%- liquid
assign columns_mobile_int = section.settings.columns_mobile | plus: 0
assign show_mobile_slider = false
if section.settings.swipe_on_mobile and section.blocks.size > columns_mobile_int
assign show_mobile_slider = true
endif
-%}

{%- unless section.settings.title == blank -%}

{{ section.settings.title }}

{%- if section.settings.show_view_all and show_mobile_slider -%}
<a
href=“{{ routes.collections_url }}”
id=“ViewAll-{{ section.id }}”
class=“link underlined-link large-up-hide{% if settings.animations_reveal_on_scroll %} scroll-trigger animate–slide-in{% endif %}”
aria-labelledby=“ViewAll-{{ section.id }} SectionHeading-{{ section.id }}”

{{- ‘sections.collection_list.view_all’ | t -}}

{%- endif -%}

{%- endunless -%}
    {%- liquid assign columns = section.blocks.size if columns > 3 assign columns = 3 endif -%} {%- for block in section.blocks -%}
  • {%- assign placeholder_image_index = forloop.index0 | modulo: 4 | plus: 1 -%} {%- assign placeholder_image = 'collection-apparel-' | append: placeholder_image_index -%} {% render 'card-collection', card_collection: block.settings.collection, media_aspect_ratio: section.settings.image_ratio, columns: columns, placeholder_image: placeholder_image %}
  • {%- endfor -%}
{%- if show_mobile_slider -%}
{% render 'icon-caret' %}
1 / {{ 'general.slider.of' | t }} {{ section.blocks.size }}
{% render 'icon-caret' %}
{%- endif -%}

{%- if section.settings.show_view_all and section.blocks.size < collections.size -%}

{%- endif -%}

Can you please tell me what to put and where? I have tried so many solutions i’ve seen and none of them work. Thank you!

Can I ask what version of studio you’re using? That’s the same theme that we use, but this solution doesn’t seem to work for me so I’m trying to figure out if I did something wrong or if I have an older version or something.
