I logged into my website to do some more updates and there is this random code on top of my website. I don’t know how to fix it.
Topic summary
A Shopify store owner discovered unexpected code appearing at the top of their website and is seeking help to remove it.
Likely Causes:
- Broken code in the theme’s
{{ content_for_header }}section - Malformed HTML or other theme errors
Suggested Troubleshooting Steps:
- Use the W3C validator (https://validator.w3.org/) to test the website and identify HTML errors
- Review recent theme changes and restore from a backup/duplicate if available
- Roll back individual theme files that may have been recently modified
- Manually inspect the theme code to locate the source of the problematic code
Current Status:
The issue remains unresolved. One responder offered paid debugging services, noting that someone needs to examine the actual theme code to identify and fix the specific problem.

This generally indicates either some code coming from the themes {{ content_for_header }} is broken, or the theme has some sort of error such as malformed html.
To test a website https://validator.w3.org/
If you recently made changes to the theme restore a duplicate/backup if you made one, otherwise try rolling back individual files that may be suspect https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/themes/theme-structure/extend/edit-theme-code#roll-back
Beyond that to fix it someone has to go through the site’s code and locate the actual source, then figure out if there’s a fix.
