Collection page

Collection pages are structured with grid layouts, sorting, filtering, and pagination to support large catalogs. Shopify Search & Discovery filters can be used for product type, vendor, price, variant options, and metafields.

Open the Shopify theme editor and choose Default collection. Keep Collection banner at the top, then use Collection promotions for optional merchandising tiles and Collection products for filters, sorting, product cards, and pagination.
Template structure: The collection page is built from reusable OS 2.0 sections. The sections use the current Shopify collection object, so merchants do not need to hardcode a collection, product list, or product count in the template.

Collection header

Collection banner

The Collection banner section introduces the active collection with a title, optional description, product count, and image. By default it uses the collection title, description, and featured image from Shopify admin. Merchants can override those fields from the theme editor when a collection needs campaign-specific copy or artwork.

Color scheme

Use Color scheme only when this collection header needs a dedicated palette. Keep Follow global theme color scheme enabled to inherit the storewide default colors from theme settings.

Typography

Enable section font override when the banner should use a different font from the global primary font. The Liquid renders the selected font face and passes font variables into the banner, so the heading, eyebrow, count pill, and description stay visually consistent.

Banner content

Eyebrow label defaults to the collection label translation when left blank. Custom title, Custom description, and Banner image are optional overrides. Leave them empty to use the collection title, collection description, and collection featured image.

Configure banner copy and image overrides only when the collection data itself should not be used.

Banner layout

Enable Show collection description to display the collection description or the custom rich text override. Enable Show collection image in header to add the image column. If no image is available, the Liquid automatically keeps the banner as a copy-only header.

Height and count

Banner height on mobile and Banner height on desktop control the minimum header height through CSS variables. Show product count displays the live collection.products_count value, which is useful for large catalogs and filtered category browsing.

Spacing

Adjust Top padding and Bottom padding to control the distance between the banner and neighboring template sections. The default 24px spacing keeps the banner visually connected to the product grid without crowding the page.

Use layout settings to decide whether the collection page opens as a simple text header or a visual banner.

Merchandising

Collection promotions

Collection promotions is an optional section for campaign tiles above the product grid. The section renders only when blocks exist, which keeps empty collection templates clean. Use it for seasonal messages, shipping offers, sale callouts, or links to related collections.

Section style

Color scheme and Follow global theme color scheme work the same way as the banner. Use the global scheme for a quiet product-listing page, or choose a specific scheme when promotional content needs stronger contrast.

Typography and spacing

The font override applies to the promotion tile text and button. Top padding and Bottom padding control how tightly the tile row sits between the banner and the collection products section.

Promo tile blocks

Add up to three Promo tile blocks. Each block has an image, heading, text, button label, button link, and overlay accent color. The section also accepts app blocks, with a maximum of four total blocks.

Keep promotion tiles focused. They should support collection browsing rather than push the product grid too far down the page.

Product listing

Collection products

Collection products is the main catalog section. It paginates the current collection products, renders Shopify filters from collection.filters, provides sorting from collection.sort_options, and reuses the product showcase/card system for consistent product cards across the theme.

Filters and sorting

Enable filters to show Shopify Search & Discovery filter groups when the collection has filters available. Filter groups support checkbox values and price ranges, active filter counts, clear-all links, and a collapsible mobile panel. Enable sorting to show the collection sort dropdown.

Grid and pagination

Products per page controls the Liquid paginate size. Choose Numbered pages, Load more button, or Infinite scroll. Desktop columns can be set from 2 to 5, while mobile supports 1 or 2 columns.

Product cards

Show vendor displays product vendor names when brand comparison matters. Show second image on hover adds alternate product imagery. Enable quick add and Enable quick buy expose faster purchase paths from the grid when products support them.

Theme editor settings for Collection products grid, filters, sorting, pagination, columns, and product cards.
These controls define how customers scan, narrow, sort, and purchase products from a collection.

Product badges

Enable Show promo badge and enter Promo badge text for campaign labels such as sale, bundle, or limited-time messaging. Show status badge uses the configured Status badge text, which defaults to "In stock".

Empty states

When a collection or filtered result has no products, the section displays the translated empty state text and a clear-all link back to the collection URL. This prevents dead-end collection pages after customers apply restrictive filters.

Spacing

Product section padding controls the vertical rhythm around the toolbar, filter sidebar, product grid, and pagination. The default bottom padding gives numbered pagination or load-more controls room before the footer.

Badge settings should be used for broad merchandising signals that apply across the collection grid.
Large catalog note: Configure product type, vendor, price, option, and metafield filters in Shopify Search & Discovery. The theme reads those filter definitions automatically and keeps the sidebar accessible with semantic form controls.
