How To Add Password Protected Collection For Shopify?

Welcome back to another update from WebSense Pro! In this video, we’re revisiting a previous tutorial where we tackled the challenge of adding password protection to your Shopify collection pages. If you’ve been following along, you know that while we provided a solution before, it wasn’t flawless. Customers were still able to stumble upon password-protected products through searches or other collection pages. Today, we’re going to fix that.

Step 1: Create a new template for collection

To begin, navigate to your Shopify dashboard and access the “Collections” section under “Products.” Here, create a new collection and name it accordingly. We’ll call it “Private Collection” for this demonstration.

Create a new template collection.private.liquid and add the following code:

{% if customer.tags contains 'private' %}
  {% section 'main-collection-product-grid' %}
{% else %}
  <div class="page-width style_private">
    <h2>Please login to view this collection</h2>
    <a href="{{ routes.account_login_url }}">Login</a>
    <!-- <a href="{{ routes.account_register_url }}">Register</a> -->
  </div>
{% endif %}
<style>
  .style_private{
    text-align: center;
    margin-top: 80px;
    margin-bottom: 80px;
  }
  .style_private a{
    text-decoration: none;
    padding: 8px 15px;
    border-radius: 5px;
    background: #efefef;
    margin: 0 5px;
  }
</style>
  • Add “private” tag to customer and product

Step 2: Update main-collection-product-grid.liquid File

Goto main-collection-product-grid.liquid file and replace the following code:

<li
                  class="grid__item{% if settings.animations_reveal_on_scroll %} scroll-trigger animate--slide-in{% endif %}"
                  {% if settings.animations_reveal_on_scroll %}
                    data-cascade
                    style="--animation-order: {{ forloop.index }};"
                  {% endif %}
                >
                  {% render 'card-product',
                    card_product: product,
                    media_aspect_ratio: section.settings.image_ratio,
                    image_shape: section.settings.image_shape,
                    show_secondary_image: section.settings.show_secondary_image,
                    show_vendor: section.settings.show_vendor,

                  %}
                </li>

With below code:

{% assign isPrivateProduct = false %}
                {% for tag in product.tags %}
                  {% if tag == 'private' %}
