How to disable Searchanise on Shopify temporarily

There are 3 ways to disable Searchanise temporarily:

  1. Disable the Instant Search Widget and the Search Results Widget in the Searchanise Search & Filter control panel. In this case, the widgets won’t be displayed in all themes.
  2. Disable the app in a Shopify theme in the app’s control panel > Search & Navigation > Preferences section > Themes tab. Here you can see a list of your store themes and disable widgets for a specific theme.
  3. Paste the Searchanise code into a Shopify theme. In this case, the Searchanise Search & Filter app will be switched off in a specific theme. It can be helpful if you adjust the app and don’t want to use it in the live theme until the adjustment is completed.
