Moving Product Description Below Images in Shopify's Impulse Theme: A Delightful Journey

Ah, Shopify. The labyrinthine world of e-commerce where dragging and dropping reign supreme—or so we thought. I remember the first time I wandered into this digital jungle, like an explorer with a compass that only pointed back to "buy now" buttons. Specifically, the Impulse theme in Shopify felt like the Indiana Jones of website design—full of treasures but not without its challenges.

It was during this exploratory phase that I stumbled upon a problem that, at first glance, seemed simple. My friend, let's call him Steve, had an online store and wanted the product descriptions moved beneath the images. "Surely this will be easy-peasy," I said, like a naive traveler undeterred by weather forecasts. But—and this is the part where we lean in closer, dear reader—it wasn't.

An Unassuming Beginning

Steve's product page with the description floating awkwardly beside the image, making the webpage infinitely scroll like some digital tale from Arabian Nights, was the first conundrum. We wanted a change. A rearrangement. A touch of elegance with minimal side-hustling of HTML and CSS—just a sprinkle of code hermeticity.

We rolled up our sleeves—well, metaphorically, because we were mostly in t-shirts—and set about diving into Shopify's Impulse theme. Here's how we filled this architectural void, step by profound step.

The Great Code Sleuthing

The task seemed simple enough: migrate that wandering product story below the product imagery. Maybe you're thinking, "How hard can it be?" That's exactly what I thought before entering the enchanting yet intricate ensemble of the Impulse theme. It feels like trying to adjust the Mona Lisa’s frame with a paintbrush instead of a hammer.

Back to Basics: The Theme Editor
Before wielding the mighty powers of liquid code, we started with the Shopify Theme Editor. It's like trying to sauté veggies before realizing they're planted in rows and rows of code lines waiting to be harvested.
Finding the Treasure Trove: product.liquid File
We ventured into the product.liquid file within the theme files. Picture this as the sacred scroll that dictates much of your product page layout.
```

```
Curve Ball With CSS
Sometimes, you need to nudge, push, and—just like setting up a domino run of beauty—reorder the elements decorously. Our next move was to locate the image and description divs. Like identifying constellations amidst a starry night, these tags can be elusive.
```
.product-section.product-template__product-image {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
}
```
This CSS beauty aligns everything vertically rather than horizontally. Because nobody likes side-by-side novels, right?
Testing and Adjustments
After adding the above CSS snazz into the theme's Stylesheet (theme.scss.liquid), we went for a walk—yes, a literal walk. Sometimes, the solution needs a bit of marination. With a refreshed mind, we made sure everything was behaving the way a product page narrator should—pixel perfect.

Revel in the Outcome

There was a certain state of elation, not unlike finishing a jigsaw puzzle, when the page finally wrapped the description tall and proud beneath the product image. The digital world felt harmonious and wondrous again. Steve was elated: "It looks professional," he mused. Our work here was done, the epic was complete, and balance was once again restored to the cosmos (or at least to Steve's corner of the Shopify universe).

As I reflect upon this journey of pixels and dialog boxes, it's not merely the act of moving a product description that stands out—it’s our persistence to decode the mysteries of the e-commerce universe. Initiating little tweaks, and big discoveries, make us creators in this limitless digital saga.

We did it, not just for Steve but for the countless Steves and Stevettes battling the gallant fight against template tyranny. Let this be a shining beacon of hope for all e-commerce voyagers navigating their Shopify domains. Together, we can make the complex simple, one brave edit at a time.
