How to hide page from internal site search in Shopify

Image
If you don't want a page or a product in Shopify to show in internal search results you can use the metadata. I use  metafieldseditor  - in the following fields you need to write these values: "namespace" : "seo" "key" : "hidden" "value" : 1 "value_type" : "integer" You are all set.

MailChimp allows you to embed a form into your site, but the "Submit" button often doesn't appear by default because of how their code generator works. In older versions of templates, in order ...

How to export issues, backlog to file in Jira Next-Gen software project

Image
I am using Jira next-gen for my project and I created a backlog (roadmap) and the board. My developers found it is time-consuming to go thru each of the items, click on the issue, comment then click on another one.. They wanted to see all of them in the file. Apparently it is not very straightforward and I wish Jira developers simplified it by making an Export button at the top of the right corner. Here is how to do it.  When you are in the Next-Gen Project go to Filters - Advanced Issue Search Add caption Then filter for what you would like to export and then in the upper right corner click on Export button and choose what format you would like.

How to fix error: You must upload a .wie file generated by this plugin.

I bought a theme with a demo widgets in .WIE file format. I got  Widget Importer & Exporter plugin in order to do that.

I did research and found out that sometime MIME check prevents uploads and a workaround to disable it. I used Disable Real MIME Check plugin. This plugin is a workaround that disables the recently introduced strict MIME check to restore the upload functionality. And it worked like a charm.
