# Disabling Locksmith for certain theme files

Locksmith does its work by adding its code to your theme's files. Sometimes you may want to keep Locksmith from modifying a file in particular, whether it's for a customization, or some other reason.

To support this, Locksmith has a "Liquid assets to ignore" option. Configure it like so:

1. From within the Locksmith application, click "Settings".
2. Scroll to the bottom of the screen to the "Advanced" section.
3. For each Liquid asset you'd like to have Locksmith ignore, add its filename to the "Liquid asset blacklist" box.

That will look like this:

![](/files/Kh7TMFhCWwsdIumJS426)

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: Use full file names. (e.g. "sections/collection-list.liquid" or "templates/gift\_card.liquid"), and enter them **one per line**.
{% endhint %}

**Please note:** If you need to use the ignore list because Locksmith is causing unexpected problems with your theme, please let us know! Feel free to use the ignore list for any purpose, but do get in touch at <team@uselocksmith.com> if there's a bug we can help resolve. :)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.locksmith.guide/tutorials/more/disabling-locksmith-for-certain-theme-files.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
