Layout sections

Layout Sections provide the ability to inject content into areas of the HTML outside of the Layout template. They support DotLiquid, but do not have a model available. The layout sections that are available are

• ~/Views/LayoutSections/HeadStart.liquid - will be injected immediately after the tag in the page
• ~/Views/LayoutSections/HeadEnd.liquid - will be injected immediately before tag in the page
• ~/Views/LayoutSections/BodyStart.liquid - will be injected immediately after tag in the page
• ~/Views/LayoutSections/BodyEnd.liquid - will be injected immediately after tag in the page

A Google Analytics code snippet is an example of when you'd use a Layout Section. The snippet for Google Analytics needs to exist at the top of the tag. However, in this particular example, Google Analytics is already supported by Configured Commerce using the Analytics settings in the Admin Console: Administration > System  > Settings > System Settings > Analytics section.
