Text below products in collection - Canopy

Store Design

Hi

How do I get a short intro text before products and also seo text below products in collections with Canopy theme?

Hi @mcn1145

You can edit your theme collection.liquid (If using latest version of the Canopy theme then under sections find collection.liquid or collection-template.liquid)

Now put below code after the closing as shown in the image

first find container class then next pointed class. Above two pointers are to help you to find classes and then the correct closing 

{% if collection.description != blank %}

  {{ collection.description | strip_html | truncatewords: 25, ".. read more at end of the page." }}

{% endif %}

So, above code will work as short description but you can show full description under all products on the same collection.

Now, just paste the below code just before closing and you are done.

  {{ collection.description }}

{% endif %}

Thank you - very nice solution :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi Sheesh,
Would that work under main-collection. liquid in the most recent version of Canopy? I also need to have the longer SEO texts below my collections but cannot find the collection.liquid nor collection-template.liquid

Hi @Rikke

Thanks for the question.

I don’t have the latest Canopy theme right now. It would be great if you share the theme zip to me. I can then provide you a solution and the thing you asked can be done.

Thanks
