- looking to make change to addresses page: in need of help

Topic summary

A user wants to add a custom text link (“Please also ensure to update your address here”) to the customer addresses page, either above or below the “Add a new address” button.

Key Challenge:
The addresses page (/account/addresses) is hardcoded into Shopify’s backend and cannot be directly edited through theme files like other pages (cart, product pages).

Suggested Approaches:

  • Use CSS to modify styling/appearance
  • Use JavaScript to alter page behavior or inject content
  • Locate the relevant form file and add an anchor tag (requires coding knowledge)
  • Consider hiring a developer if lacking technical expertise

The discussion remains open with one participant requesting the page link for further assistance.

whether above or below, add a new address I’m looking to add “Please also ensure to update your address here

if someone could point this rookie where and how to do so.

thanks.


If you have coding knowledge, I will definitely guide you.
First, locate the file responsible for this feature and add the anchor tag with the desired link.
If you want the link to change dynamically, use Liquid.
Otherwise, I suggest hiring a developer.
normally file name or contact form or registration form. depends upon the form

that page is hardcoded into Shopify’s backend so you can’t just go into a theme file and rewrite it like you would for the cart or product page

but what you can do is tweak the styles with CSS
and sometimes use JS to modify the behavior a bit

@tinman76 Can you please share this page link?

apologies, i didn’t know this was anywhere other than at

/account/addresses

that’s where it is.
