In Yuva theme, can I use Collection Carousel block from on theme style (Classic) in another theme style?
Topic summary
A user asks whether blocks from one Yuva theme style (e.g., Collection Carousel from “Classic”) can be used in another style.
Key Points:
- Shopify doesn’t natively support copying sections between theme styles or saving them as templates
- Theme styles are primarily preset configurations (colors, typography, spacing) rather than separate code structures
- The Collection Carousel block should be manually addable through the theme customizer, even if not present in a particular style
Implementation Approach:
- Manual code transfer is possible: copy the section code and create a new section in the target theme
- Requires modifications for theme-specific styling and preferences (HTML, CSS remain mostly the same)
- Basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Liquid is needed
Resources Suggested:
- YouTube tutorial video provided for visual guidance
- Liquid cheat sheets and Shopify’s official documentation recommended for learning
No definitive step-by-step guide exists; implementation depends on coding familiarity and theme-specific adjustments.
I don’t think Shopify has this feature of copying sections or like saving a section as template to use elsewhere.
If you like a section, you copy the code and make a new section on the new theme with some code modifications specific to that theme. It doesn’t have to be much as mostly the html, css will be the same it’s just a bit of styling preferences and other small stuffs.
Many thanks. Do you know of any guide to doing this?
Hi @G1lb3rt0
you can mix elements from different Yuva theme styles, but it requires some manual adjustments. Theme styles in Shopify are primarily preset configurations (colors, typography, spacing) rather than separate code structures. If the Collection Carousel block exists in one style but not another, you should still be able to add it manually within the theme customizer
Hmm, you can watch this video for further information: https://youtu.be/VP1yH_5NSqQ?si=y6Pb7nEU9FkYVRph
There’s no particular guide, you have to have some knowledge of coding with html, css and js if needed and liquid obviously to modify it based on the theme you are copying the section to.
You can see some yt tutorials to get a grasp of liquid a bit. Also there’s a liquid cheat sheet available on Google and a documentation from Shopify as well.
