1. Revert to Shopify default templates
If you are using GemPages templates as the default template for your homepages, product pages, and collection pages on your live store, please revert them to Shopify’s default templates by:
- Go to Shopify Admin > Online Store > Live Theme > Action > Edit Code.
- Search for these files in the search bar
- index.liquid for homepages
- product.liquid for product pages
- collection.liquid for collection pages
- Choose "Older versions", select the "Original version" and then "Save".
By doing this, your live store will be switched back to Shopify default templates, while GemPages templates are saved for future use. If you want to completely remove GemPages from your theme, please view the next section.
2. Remove GemPages code
It’s best to create a backup version of your theme before removing the code, as it would be helpful in case you accidentally delete the wrong code ;) Go to Shopify Admin > Online Store > Live theme > Action > Duplicate to complete the action.
To remove GemPages code, access Shopify Admin > Online Store > Live theme > Action > Edit code.
Step 1:
Search for "theme.liquid" and delete these code lines
You can use Ctrl + F (Windows) or Command + F (Mac) to easily locate the code
<!--Gem_Page_Header_Script-->
{% include 'gem-app-header-scripts' %}
<!--End_Gem_Page_Header_Script-->
<!--Gem_Page_Footer_Script-->
{% include 'gem-app-footer-scripts' %}
<!--End_Gem_Page_Footer_Script→
Step 2:
- Search for the "gem" keyword
- Open each file containing the keyword
- Click "Delete file"
After deleting all files, all GemPages code will be completely removed from your theme.
