Intermittent Liquid error on storefront: “Liquid error (layout/theme line 94): internal,” causing the homepage banner not to load. Affected primarily on Firefox and Android/Chrome, while desktop Chrome sometimes loads fine.
Scope and probable cause: Multiple participants report this is a widespread Shopify issue affecting many stores, suggesting a platform-side bug rather than a store-specific code problem.
Temporary workaround: One suggestion was to delete line 94 in the theme’s layout file to bypass the error, framed as a short-term fix until Shopify resolves the underlying issue.
Latest update: Participants later note the problem “looks like” it has been fixed and ask the original poster to recheck the site.
Status/outcome: Appears resolved by Shopify with no store-side change required. Root cause not disclosed. A code screenshot was shared, but the image is not essential to understand the thread’s resolution.
Hi, my public site is showing this message (it appears to be intermittent which makes me wonder if Shopify is having a web services problem at the moment). The page is loading ok in Chrome, but not Firefox or on an Android/Chrome. The error msge is:
Liquid error (layout/theme line 94): internal
The main banner on the home page (brotherswormfarm.com) is not loading properly.
The code looks like this:
Thank you for any guidance you can provide.
This is a common error that is happening on many shopify sites. There is probably some bug and shopify is working on it. Don’t worry too much and it will probably be fixed soon.
To temporarily fix it, you can try deleting line 94.
All stores are experiencing this problem. It could be fixed in the next few minutes!
Looks like the problem has been fixed. Please check back @ChipBWF .
