Custom liquid
This guide describes setting the Custom liquid section.
Use the section to add Liquid code, like app snippets, to create advanced customizations for your store. Refer to Shopify developers: Liquid reference. We recommend hiring an expert if you're not comfortable editing Liquid code.
In the previous image, a Custom liquid section is displayed on a store's home page. On the left, in the section settings, the Custom liquid box contains Liquid template language code. At the top of the homepage, the Liquid code is rendered as a paragraph of text.
For general guidance with modifying sections, refer to Sections overview and Shopify help: Sections and blocks.
