Disable app from theme

When using Globo Mega Menu, the app injects its code into your theme via Shopify’s App Embed feature (introduced with Online Store 2.0). However, there are times when you may want to temporarily disable the app's menu in order to:

  • Preview the original (default) theme menu

  • Troubleshoot conflicts between your theme and the app

  • Check layout or navigation behavior without the app enabled

This guide explains how to turn off the Globo Mega Menu embed in a draft theme, without uninstalling the app.

✏️ Steps to Disable App Embed

  1. Go to Shopify Admin > Online Store > Themes

  2. In the Theme Library section, find the theme you want to disable app

  3. Click the Customize button for that theme

  4. Inside the theme editor, click the App embeds icon (usually a square icon in the left panel)

    💡 The embed will usually be named Globo Mega Menu, depending on the app version

  5. Find the toggle switch next to Globo Mega Menu and turn it off

  6. Click Save in the top right corner

✅ Result

After saving, the Globo Mega Menu will be disabled only for that specific draft theme. This allows you to preview how your store’s original navigation looks without any modifications from the app.

🔄 How to Re-enable Later

To turn the menu back on, simply go back to the same App embeds panel, switch the toggle back on, and hit Save again.
