Remove Group Block

How to Remove a Group Block

Removing a group block within your Shopify store using the AppSections application involves a different approach from the native Shopify removal function. Follow these steps to correctly manage and remove a group block using our custom settings:

Important Notes

Avoid Native Shopify Removal: Do not use Shopify's native removal function for group blocks, as it can cause issues with the structure of the section. Instead, use our custom visibility settings.

Steps to Remove a Group Block

  1. Select the Group Block:

    • Open your Shopify theme editor.

    • Navigate to the section containing the group block you want to remove.

    • Select the group block by clicking on it.

  2. Open Block Settings:

    • In the right-hand pane, navigate to the settings of the selected group block.

  3. Adjust Display Device Setting:

    • At the top of the block settings, locate the Display Device parameter.

    • This setting controls the visibility of the block with four options:

      • All: The block is visible on all devices.

      • Mobile Only: The block is visible only on mobile devices.

      • Desktop Only: The block is visible only on desktop devices.

      • None: The block is hidden on all devices.

  4. Set to None:

    • To remove the block, select None from the Display Device options. This will make the block invisible on all devices, effectively removing it from view.

    • This setting is equivalent to Shopify's removal function but works correctly with our system without causing structural issues.

Verifying the Change

  • Preview Changes: After adjusting the Display Device setting, preview your store to ensure the block is removed as intended.

By using these steps, you can effectively manage and remove group blocks within your Shopify store without disrupting the structure of your sections. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please contact our customer support team.
