If you’re using an external system to manage your theme files, you should ignore assets/algolia_config.js.liquid
. This file contains the front-end settings that you configure in our admin interface.
An example of this would be when you change the amount of products displayed on the search page. Our front-end code needs to access this information. The way we do this is by updating the algolia_config.js.liquid
file on every change you make in the admin interface.
Issues will arise if you:
- copy all files in your theme to an external system,
- perform edits in the admin interface, which modifies the live
algolia_config.js.liquid
file, - do code changes in this system,
- then deploy your code with the old version of the file, which will override the new one.
However, most of those systems let you ignore files. Add a rule for this file, and everything should work fine.
