In blog-templte.liquid
{% assign articleSortOrder = '' %}
....
{% for article in blog.articles {{articleSortOrder}} %}
got an error : Liquid syntax error: Unexpected character { in "article in blog.articles {{articleSortOrder}}"
The intention is to pass the variable to sort the articles depending on some condition.
Q: is how to make it work?
This is not a valid liquid code:
{% for article in blog.articles {{articleSortOrder}} %}
You can't pass a liquid inside a liquid, a.k.a {% {{ }} %}
In addition for loops accept only a few parameters:
reversed - which will reverse the loop
limit - which will limit the iterations
offset - which will make the loop skip a specific set number of items
Sort is not one of them.
You can read more about the for loop here: https://shopify.dev/docs/liquid/reference/tags/iteration-tags
In order to sort the blog in a specific way you must code it like so:
{% assign articleSortOrder = '' %}
{% assign blog_articles_sort = blog.articles | sort: articleSortOrder %}
{% for article in blog_articles_sort %}
{% endfor %}
Where you assign the articles in a specific variable and sort them.
Please have in mind that this will sort ONLY 50 articles.
If you like to sort more than 50 you will need to overwrite the paginate object {% paginate blog.articles by 9999 %}
Then your code will look like this:
{% paginate blog.articles by 9999 %}
{% assign articleSortOrder = '' %}
{% assign blog_articles_sort = blog.articles | sort: articleSortOrder %}
{% for article in blog_articles_sort %}
{% endfor %}
{% endpaginate %}
More about paginate can be seen here: https://shopify.dev/docs/liquid/reference/tags/theme-tags/#paginate
Please have in mind that the sort function in Shopify is limited. You may need to sort them with javascript or another approach depending one what you are looking for.

Within the product page, I would like to hide a certain element if the current product isn't associated with any collection. Is there any way to check it with Liquid ?
The object product.collections is an array containing all collections where the product is listed.
So you may use this:
{% if product.collections.size < 1 %}
Do something
{% endif %}
Documentation about arrays here:
https://shopify.dev/api/liquid/filters#size
{% if 0 == product.collections | size %}
!! put your code here !!
{% endif %}
Or
{% for _ in product.collections %}
{% else %}
!! put your code here !!
{% endif %}
In Shopify my code structure follows product loop.
{% assign products = all_products[block.settings.product_to_show] %}
In products variable i got object of one product.
but my code structure of for loop only accept products as array.
{% for product in products %}
{% include 'product-card', product: product %}
{% endfor %}
So how can i push "products" (object) in blank array in shopify?
With Liquid we are generally limited to creating an array of strings (not objects). Given that you seem to have the product handles coming from section block settings, here are some approaches that may work for you:
Use a forloop on section.blocks, create the product object and pass it to the output snippet (Example code assumes there is only 1 product per block).
{% for block in section.blocks %}
{% assign _product = all_products[block.settings.product_to_show] %}
{% include 'product-card', product: _product %}
{% endfor %}
Loop over the section blocks and create a comma separated string of the product handles(strings). Use the split filter to convert the string into and array of strings. Loop over the array, create the product object and pass it to the output snippet.
{% assign products = '' %}
{% for block in section.blocks %}
{% comment %}
You can place additional logic/conditions within this loop to customize how your "products" array is built
{% endcomment %}
{% assign products = products | append: block.settings.product_to_show | append: ',' %}
{% endfor %}
{% assign products = products | split: ',' %}
{% for product_handle in products %}
{% assign _product = all_products[product_handle] %}
{% include 'product-card', product: _product %}
{% endfor %}
let say I have three products and made a case
I want to know if I can use OR instead of duplicating the content again
{% case shipping_method.title %}
{% when 'packageA' || 'packageB' %}
around 5000 lines
{% when 'packageC' %}
{% endcase %}
Yes you can but it must be a valid syntax. || is not a valid operator in liquid.
You have to use or instead so it becomes {% when 'packageA' or 'packageB' %}
I need to display n number of images for a product in shopify.
I have stored number of images in a metafields and created a loop for it.
Then each image's name is stored in a metafield, which i am trying to get with help of loop.
{% assign earrings = product.metafields.earrings %}
{% for i in (1..earrings.total-earrings) %}
{% assign earring = 'product.metafields.earring-' | append:i %}
{{ earring.name }}
{% endfor %}
This loop is giving me values for earring like:
product.metafields.earring-1
product.metafields.earring-2
but when i am trying to read value of metafield earring.name, i am not getting any output. I think because product.metafields.earring-1 is a string.
Is there any possible way to loop through metafields like this and get values?
Just in case it's helpful for someone.
Here's the updated code:
{% assign earrings = product.metafields.earrings %}
{% for i in (1..earrings.total-earrings) %}
{% assign dummy = 'earring-' | append:i %}
{% assign earring = product.metafields[dummy] %}
{{ earring.name }}
{% endfor %}
Good evening! I am trying to remove variants from the variant array on a product using pure Liquid(Shopify templating language). I would only like to use javascript as a last resort.
Below is where I am so far. Anything that is the variant in the if check needs to be removed from currentProduct.variants.
{% assign currentProduct = product %}
{% for variant in currentProduct.variants %}
{% include 'shappify-variant-is-csp' %}
{% if csp_variant != 1 %}
//need to remove the object that meets this if statement
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
I'm pretty sure you're going to need to use some javascript to achieve this. Take a look at this article on the Shopify wiki: How do I remove sold out variants from my options drop-downs.
Modifying the code in that article for your situation, you'll want something like this:
{% for variant in product.variants %}
{% include 'shappify-variant-is-csp' %}
{% if csp_variant != 1 %}
jQuery('.single-option-selector option').filter(function() { return jQuery(this).html() === {{ variant.title | json }}; }).remove();
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
jQuery('.single-option-selector').trigger('change');
