Editing Shopify Contact Forms Without an App - Part 1

First part of a 3 video series where I teach you to edit the code of your contact form.

In Part 1 I show you where to find the contact form liquid file, how to back up the file so can safely edit code, and then how to remove form fields and edit the text on those fields.

In Part 2 I show you how to add new fields to the contact form. I will demonstrate with one-line text fields, text areas, dropdowns and checkboxes.

In Part 3 I will show you how to create multiple contact forms with different fields.

Thank you for being one of the few YouTubers who says you're going to upload a related video at x point in time and then actually does so. Thank you.

[Homemus]

Just wanted to thank you. Your explanations were exactly what I was searching for. Being new to e-commeerce, I wanted to keep my Shopify shop clean, fast and simple. Because that's what I like as a customer, too. Subscribed - what I normally never do.

What a GREAT video!! I know nothing about coding and am very reluctant to change any codes, by watching you teach this I feel more confident in doing so!

Thank You for posting this tutorial, it is very helpful!!!

[Gkskledlrk]

Your content is super valueable. I want to see a video where you show how to show intentory for variants. It would benefit a lot of people running a shopify store to see such a video.

Absolutely stellar content, as always, Ed. One question, where is the content mentioned as part of Part 3, creating multiple contact forms with different fields? Thanks!

[LuxeHumidifier]

Thank you so much, this helped me to change my swedish site👍

Very helpful. :-) I think Online Store > Themes [...] "Edit Languages" has changed to "Edit default theme content"

[omniarte]

Thank you for your video. The language file is a great tip.

[silasschramm]

[aristney]

hi! Thank you for this tutorial, it saved me a lot of time :) I wonder what would happen if I changed the theme of my store? Would I have to do it again?

[razor-tune]

Did you ever make a Part3? This was really helpful!

[dlwynnjr]

Again, what a great tutorial! I was wondering how you inserted the text below the Contact Title, I like that, it's very personable?
