Can someone please help me remove this open tag at the top of the page? It only appears on blog pages

Topic summary
A stray “open h2 tag” was rendering at the top of only blog pages on a Shopify store. A screenshot illustrated the issue; the site link was provided.
Initial guidance suggested the error stemmed from theme code and recommended reverting the blog template to a previous version via Online Store > Themes > Edit code, or hiring a Shopify Expert if no revert was available.
The store owner noted no recent code changes and no prior versions for blog-related files.
A concrete fix was provided: add a Liquid conditional in theme.liquid above :
- {% if template contains ‘article’ %}{% endif %}
This targets article (blog post) templates and effectively prevents the problematic output from appearing on those pages. Alternative suggestion: locate the breadcrumb file and remove the error there.
Outcome: The added Liquid snippet resolved the issue; the owner confirmed success. The thread is resolved.
Key terms:
- theme.liquid: main layout file in a Shopify theme.
- Liquid: Shopify’s templating language.
- breadcrumb: navigational trail element; potentially the source of the bad tag.
That would be error within your theme’s coding. You most likely tried to make some changes to the theme’s coding, and made a mistake. There wouldn’t be any way for someone to help you without seeing your theme’s coding.
You could try going into your admin > online store > themes > click the “…” dropdown > edit coding > click into the coding for your blog > select the drop-down at the top, and revert the coding to a previous date (where the coding wasn’t broken).
Otherwise, your best bet would be to hire a Shopify Partner/Expert to go into the coding for you, find the broken bits, and then remove it (or revert changes manually for you).
I haven’t made any changes to coding and looking at the code sections for the blog, none of them have previous versions.

Please add this code to your theme.liquid above the to get this solved
Step 1: Online Stores > Themes > More Actions > Edit code
