I want to Display Only Products In Search Results In Dawn Theme [URGENT]

Topic summary

A Shopify store owner using the Dawn theme needs to filter search results to display only products, excluding collections and other content. Previous code solutions either failed or disrupted the site layout.

Solution Provided:
Artzen Technologies shared a two-step code implementation:

  • Step 1: Add <input type="hidden" name="type" value="product"> in the header.liquid file after locating ‘routes.search_url’
  • Step 2: Apply the same code in the main-search.liquid file

Screenshots were included to show exact code placement.

Outcomes:

  • Multiple users confirmed the solution worked successfully
  • One user reported the fix no longer works with Dawn version 15 (December 2024), requesting an updated solution

The discussion remains partially open, as the original fix may need updating for newer Dawn theme versions.
