# Online Store 2.0: Introducing the new Liquid input setting

The new Liquid input setting allows merchants to add custom Liquid code directly from the editor. The Liquid setting is similar to the HTML setting type, except it allows access to Liquid variables. This means merchants will be able to access global and template-specific Liquid objects without editing their theme code.

Learn more about this update in our [developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/themes/architecture/settings/input-settings#liquid).

Refer to [Dawn’s custom-liquid section](https://github.com/Shopify/dawn/blob/main/sections/custom-liquid.liquid) for an example of how the Liquid setting can be implemented.
