Description

Sets a default value for any variable which is nil, false, or blank.

Examples

{{ quantity | default: 5 }}
5
In this example, price is defined, so the default value is not used:
{% assign price = 4.99 %}
{{ price | default: 2.99 }}
4.99
In this example, price is empty, so the default value is used:
{% assign price = "" %}
{{ price | default: 2.99 }}
2.99

Options

allow_false

To allow variables to return false instead of the default value, you can use the allow_false parameter.

{% assign hide_price = false %}
{{ hide_price | default: true, allow_false: true }}
false
