Custom liquid ​
This guide describes 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.
The previous image shows an example store's home page. In the upper left, part of Theme editor's Custom liquid section menu is displayed. The menu's Custom liquid box contains Liquid template language code for a paragraph of text. This option specifies Liquid code to use inside the section, like app snippets, to create advanced customizations for your store pages. On the example store's home page, the Liquid code is rendered as a paragraph with the text "Add custom Liquid code".
For general guidance with modifying sections, refer to Sections overview, and Shopify help: Sections and blocks.
