Installing it, the commands that matter, and the one mistake that wipes a merchant's changes. https://remtadigital.com/articles/editing-shopify-themes-4-github/ https://remtadigital.com/articles/editing-shopify-themes-4-github/ Mon, 12 Oct 2026 08:00:00 GMT Shopify's GitHub integration turns a branch into a theme and syncs both ways, including the merchant's edits.

Here is how I built a migration app where that cannot happen. https://remtadigital.com/articles/from-16-mb-to-4-mb-product-page/ https://remtadigital.com/articles/from-16-mb-to-4-mb-product-page/ Mon, 12 Oct 2026 08:00:00 GMT A colour-variant product page on the new Curaprox store weighed 16.2 MB.

How tag-driven price visibility works in a theme, where it has to apply, and what it does not hide.
