Updates to how Shopify handles Liquid code

Starting January 13, 2026, we're updating how Shopify handles Liquid code in your theme files. This happens automatically in the background to make your theme code more reliable.

Your store will continue working exactly as it does now—nothing about your storefront will change. You don't need to do anything.

If you edit your theme files, you might notice a small comment added to some files explaining what we updated. These comments are for informational purposes only. Your store's look, functionality, and performance remain exactly the same.

If you work with a developer and they have questions, they can learn more in our migration guide.
