How to hide Route Shipping Protection from Product Recommendations

Topic summary

A user needed to hide Route Shipping Protection from appearing in “Product Recommendations” or “You May Also Like” sections on their Shopify store using the Pipeline theme, despite already hiding it from collections and emails.

Initial Solution Attempt:

  • One responder suggested adding conditional code to product-grid.liquid to skip products with “Route” in the title
  • The user initially added the code to the wrong file (product-grid-item.liquid), which successfully removed the product but left empty spaces in the grid

Final Resolution:
The user solved the issue by modifying product-recommendations.liquid instead, using:

{% unless product.tags contains 'shipping-insurance' %}

This approach filters out products tagged with ‘shipping-insurance’ from the recommendations loop, preventing both the display and the empty space issue. Multiple support team members offered to investigate further with store access, but the user resolved it independently.

I’ve followed Route’s instructions to hide the product from collections and email flows however, it is still appearing in the Product Reommendations or You May Also Like sections on the website.

Can anyone provide guidance on how to remove this on the Pipeline theme?

Thanks for sharing. I attempted to update the code as suggested however, the product still appears.

Sorry, I added it to the wrong file. The file which it was added to is called: product-grid-item.liquid

It removed the product however it now leaves an empty space: https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/51988095?key=9b30f0170364eb05758fb41ee6a2ab69

Hi @mj2023 ,

Can you provide link to the store? I can provide you with the CSS as per your theme.

I fixed this in the Pipeline theme by replace the code in the product-recommendations.liquid file to this:

{%- if recommendations.performed -%}
{%- if recommendations.products_count > 0 -%}

{% for product in recommendations.products %} {% unless product.tags contains 'shipping-insurance' %}
{% render 'product-grid-item', product: product %}
{% endunless %} {% endfor %}
{%- endif -%} {%- else -%}
{%- endif -%}
