Use same section (with same static content) on homepage and different page-templates

Store Design

Topic summary

Issue: A merchant using the Prestige v10.4 Shopify theme wants the same multi‑column section (identical content) on the homepage and the “Our story” page, updated in one place and reflected on both.

Context: They can add an empty section to the second template but want a single source of truth to avoid duplicating edits.

Proposed approaches:

  • Use Shopify metafields to centralize the section’s content and reference it on both templates. Metafields are custom fields that store reusable data across pages/sections.
  • Modify the theme code so the section pulls shared content, enabling one-time edits. Without code changes, edits in the Theme Customizer must be repeated on each page.

Status: No resolution yet. Further details (store URL and exact placement) were requested to provide targeted code guidance.

Open questions: Which implementation path (metafields vs. code) will be used, and where exactly the shared section should appear on the “Our story” page.

I’m using Prestige v10.4 theme.

I have a multi-column section on my homepage that I also want to include on my “Our story” page. I want the same content on both pages, and if I change this content on one page, I want it to change on the other page as well. I know how to add a default/empty multi-column section on a page template, but then I’d have to populate it with the content and remember to change it in all places if I update the wording.

I feel like it is a simple thing that I’m just overlooking.

Thanks!

You are pretty much right. With metafields this is pretty easy now. You can watch a few yt videos, pretty easy concept so there’s no special video or something.You will pretty much get it in one go

Hi @PKL

This change must be made in both places (if changed in theme customize). If you want to change it once for all, you’ll need to modify the code. Please provide me with the store URL and specify where exactly you’d like the change to be made

Best,
