“Liquid Doesn’t Support Blocks or Sections” Error in Shopify

If you see a message like:

“Liquid doesn’t support blocks or sections”

this usually means your Shopify theme is using an older theme structure that does not fully support Shopify Online Store 2.0 app blocks.

Why This Happens

Kiwi Size Chart & Recommender is designed to work best with Shopify 2.0 themes using App Blocks.

Older themes may not support:

  • App blocks

  • Theme sections

  • Modern Shopify app integrations

Because of this, the Kiwi block may not appear or may fail to add correctly inside the Shopify theme editor.

Recommended Solution: Upgrade to a Shopify 2.0 Theme

We strongly recommend updating your store to a Shopify 2.0 compatible theme.

Benefits include:

  • Easier app installation

  • Better compatibility with Shopify apps

  • Drag-and-drop app blocks

  • Faster future support and updates

  • Improved long-term Shopify compatibility

You can browse Shopify’s supported themes here:

Can Kiwi Still Work on Older Themes?

Yes — in many cases, our team can manually install the Kiwi snippet code for you.

If your theme does not support app blocks:

  1. Contact our support team

  2. Share:

    • Your Shopify store URL

    • Your theme name

    • The product page where you want the chart to appear

  3. Our team can often manually place the Kiwi snippet into your theme

Important Future Warning

Shopify is continuing to move toward Online Store 2.0 standards.

Older themes and legacy installation methods may become harder to support over time, both from Shopify and third-party apps.

While we can still help with manual snippet installations for many themes today, we strongly recommend planning a move to a Shopify 2.0 theme for the best long-term experience.
