NEW Tutorial 2022! SHOPIFY's NEW OS Store 2.0 allows you to create custom pages of content without having to code( click here to see the new method for custom pages of collections on Shopify's Free DAWN theme)
This customization of the Shopify Debut Theme allows you to add custom content on a page using the sections feature.
Make a Duplicate copy of your theme before beginning. Don't forget to sign up for my newsletter for the latest tips on traffic generation, Shopify integration and updates.
Below are the code blocks need for this theme customization seen in the video:
Page Template Code
page.my-custom-collections.liquid
Copy the one line of blue code and paste into your new page template.
{% section 'my-custom-collections' %}
Section Code
Note I have made a code change to this section so it now a Static instead of a Dynamic Section. This means it will only show on your custom page and not on the home page.
my-custom-collections.liquid
Add the Following Code to the new section, but note every custom page needs it own section with a unique name in the schema. Note the section of code in Green within the blue code.
"name": "My Custom Page"
Copy the Blue code from <div class="page-width"> to the {% endschema %}.
<div class="page-width">

Brilliant, just brilliant!
I have been battling with this and another issue which I hope you can help me with.
I’ve changed the colour of my footer to black, and text to white. However, the footer linklists, copyright, and Powered by texts don’t change colour! I have poured hours into this and still can’t find any fix. Hope for your ingenious advice!

keep getting error code does not work
Thanks very much. This worked as explained. However, for me I don’t really want a collection as much as I want a gallery. Instead of using the custom-content section code, I chose to try the image-bar (I want images that are behaving in a responsive way, and the ability to add links to the images. When I use the image-bar the top and bottom of the image get cut off by the header/footer as I resize the window. It’s not properly scaling the image, or moving the image to separate lines. I also tried custom html with a table, but that wasn’t responsive. Any suggestions on how to tweak it? I’d really like a version of the gallery on the home page, and I thought taking the image-bar code would work, but it’s not quite right.
This is Fantastic and has save me hours on my project.
Is there a way I can add in the logo list from the homepage to this as well?
Hi, I have had problems with creating a page with sections inside of it. When I try to customize my page I cannot choose the custom section I have created. But great tutorial and a very helpful trick.
