Strip Excessive Whitespace from Shopify Liquid Output Best Practices and Solutions

To strip excessive whitespace from Shopify Liquid, you can use the strip filter. This filter removes all whitespace from a string or variable.

Here is an example of how to use the strip filter to remove excessive whitespace from a string in Shopify Liquid:

{% assign my_string = "   This   is   a   string   with   excessive   whitespace.   " %}
{{ my_string | strip }}

In this example, the assign tag is used to create a variable called my_string that contains a string with excessive whitespace. The strip filter is then used to remove all whitespace from the string when it is displayed on the page.

You can also use the strip filter to remove whitespace from variables that contain HTML or Liquid tags, like this:

{% assign my_html = "<div>    This    is    a    div    with    excessive    whitespace.    </div>" %}
{{ my_html | strip }}

In this example, the assign tag is used to create a variable called my_html that contains a div tag with excessive whitespace. The strip filter is then used to remove all whitespace from the div tag when it is displayed on the page.

Note that the strip filter will remove all whitespace, including line breaks and indentation. If you want to preserve some whitespace, you can use the whitespace filter instead. The whitespace filter allows you to specify which types of whitespace to remove. For example, {% capture my_variable %} Some text with excessive whitespace. {% endcapture %}{{ my_variable | whitespace: 'strip' }} will remove all whitespace in the variable my_variable.
