Main issue: In a custom Shopify collection template with multiple sections, a “collection list” section should appear only on the first page and be hidden on page 2 and onward.
Context: The request focuses on conditional display tied to pagination (show on page 1, hide on subsequent pages).
Recent activity: A Shopify Partner (BSS Commerce) offered professional help via a Shopify Experts link, stating they can provide an optimal solution. No technical steps or code were shared in the thread.
Outcomes/decisions: None reported. No community-sourced implementation details yet.
Key terms: “Collection template” = layout for collection pages; “Section” = modular content block within the template; “Pagination” = splitting collection items across multiple pages (e.g., page 2, 3, …).
Status: Open/ongoing. The core need remains unresolved: a way to conditionally render or hide the section based on whether the user is on the first paginated page.
We created a custom template that has several sections. One of the sections is a collection list and we want that section to appear only on the first page. we would like it to disappear once the user has navigated to page 2 and so on. Any ideas are welcome.
Thank you
