Remove inter text box in "image with text overlay" grid theme

Topic summary

A user seeks to remove the text box overlay from the “Image with text overlay” section in Shopify’s Grid theme, wanting only the background image with white text visible.

Proposed Solutions:

  • CSS modification approach: Add custom CSS to theme.css file to hide the text box background while keeping text visible:

    • background: none !important;
    • color: #fff !important;
    • Or use display: none; to hide the entire text content section
  • Theme customizer approach: Remove text directly through Shopify Admin by navigating to Sales channels > Online Store > Customize, then clearing the Heading and Subheading fields in the Image with text overlay section.

Both methods target the .pxs-image-with-text element. The discussion remains open with multiple community members offering alternative solutions, though no confirmation of which approach worked has been provided.
