Important notes

• This will move the collection description to the bottom of all collection pages throughout your store.
• A common reason for moving the collection description to the bottom of collection pages is to improve SEO. However, please be aware that, although a variety of factors contribute to SEO, moving descriptions to the bottom of the page may affect your SEO strategy because one of the many signals search engines look for is the location of text within a page. There is some evidence that placing descriptions near the bottom of the page could affect your SEO.
• At this time, there is no way to add a "read more," "toggle" or "expand" link or icon to your product description hide part of it until the user opts to click without custom code.
• If you prefer to only move it to certain collections, you will need to create additional collection templates. To do this, follow the general steps here, but duplicate and rename the "collection.liquid" file in the "Templates" folder and "collection-template.liquid" in the "Sections" folder instead. 
• For more advanced layouts, you can use the column framework within the collection description.
