In the Studio theme, my custom section (‘Seasonal banner’) uses image_picker and correctly generates the CDN image link (visible in Inspector), but the image itself doesn’t display on the live site. The img src is valid (points to /cdn/shop/files/...), yet Shopify doesn’t render it. Is there a known issue with shopify://shop_images/... references inside section presets, and how can I make the image display without manually re-uploading it in the theme editor?
Topic summary
A user encountered an issue where a custom section in the Studio theme used image_picker to generate valid CDN image links (/cdn/shop/files/...), but images failed to display on the live site despite correct img src attributes visible in Inspector.
Problem specifics:
- Valid CDN URLs were generated from
shopify://shop_images/...references - Images didn’t render on the frontend
- Question raised about potential issues with
shopify://shop_images/...in section presets
Resolution:
The original poster resolved the issue independently using a simple solution involving:
- Adding an
"id"field with"file_name" - Creating a label referencing “File name from Settings → Files”
Another community member offered to investigate further by requesting store credentials, but assistance was no longer needed after the self-resolution.
