Trying to tweak my website on my own! Has anyone ever encountered the labels on the collections. It’s showing double. I tried to remove the label so that collection cover I created shows but the actual collection name still shows up (hopefully I’m explaining this clearly). Does anyone know how to remove this
This is Moira from the Social Care team at Shopify. Thanks for posting, and a very warm welcome to the Community!
Removing the overlay text on your collection images requires a small adjustment to your theme code. Have you had any experience with editing your store code before? I am more than happy to provide you with step-by-step instructions to help you out.
Go to Online Store > Theme > Edit code
Once in your theme editor click on Assets > theme.scss.liquid as shown below:
If you make changes to the original code and save the changes, you will not be able to revert back. We always suggest you first duplicate the theme and work in the duplicate. That way you can always go back to your previous version.
If you make changes to the original code in a theme and update your theme to a newer version in the future it will override past changes.
If you’ve changed theme files and need to revert them, you can roll back .liquid files individually to a time and date before you made the changes.
Below I have linked another community post where one of our Shopify Partners has directly implemented the code in a fellow merchants store. If you do not feel comfortable editing your own theme code, I suggest posting in this thread to see if a developer can help you directly:
As a side note, I love the work you’ve done on your website so far. Certain products like the “A Ballers Girl Bag” stand out to me because of the great job you’ve done with the photos and product description. Have you thought about who your target customer is for your website? Our blog post on Building a Buyer Persona talks about narrowing down who your ideal customer is. This process is good to go through so that you can get the most out of your marketing.

I was just recently given a code that removed the text from the pics. However when previously using he other provided code my homepage product photos now appear faded and my drop down menu has disappeared
