How to hide the product inventory in specific collection

Technical Q&A
,

Topic summary

A user wants to hide product inventory display for items within a specific collection only, not store-wide.

Proposed Solution:
A community member provided a code snippet using Liquid templating to conditionally hide inventory:

  • Assign the target collection to a variable
  • Use {% unless product.collections contains collection_to_exclude %} to wrap the inventory display code
  • This prevents inventory from showing for products in the specified collection

Implementation Notes:

  • The exact code location varies by theme
  • The provided code example needs adjustment based on the specific theme structure
  • One responder offered paid assistance to implement the change safely without breaking the theme

Status: The discussion remains open with a technical solution provided but not yet confirmed as implemented.

Hi @hapq95

Are you looking to hide the product inventory for products inside a certain collection?

If so, your theme’s code needs to be changed. First, you’ll need to look for the code for the product inventory. Then, add a conditional like the one below in order to hide the product inventory of a product belonging to a certain collection.

{% assign collection_to_exclude = collections['collection-name'] %}
{% unless product.collections contains collection_to_exclude %}
code for the product inventory
{% endunless %}

After saving, that should hide the product inventory for products that belong to a certain collection. Be sure to change the code example I gave above as it will vary from theme to theme.

Hope this helps and if you have any questions, feel free to ask here or through my contact email below! :slightly_smiling_face: :+1:

If you’re uncomfortable with touching your theme’s code because of instances where the theme might break, I’d be happy to do it for a fee. I’ll make sure that the change we’ll add doesn’t break your theme and that the product inventory will hide according to your requirements.
