Tips
- Collection description shows what you wrote on the collection in the admin, so the text follows the collection automatically.
- Custom content is for a template used by one collection, or for a paragraph that should read the same on every collection page.
- Put the keywords a search engine should find here, in one or two paragraphs. This is the text search engines read for the page.
