# Adding sections

**Sections** are the basic components of templates. You can add, rearrange, and customize sections to create the layout and content of your pages.

## Add sections

***

Sections are listed in the theme editor **sidebar** in the order they appear on the page.

* Click the **(+) Add section** button in the theme editor sidebar.
* Use the **drag handles** (**⋮⋮**) to change the order of your sections and blocks
* Use the **Remove section** button to delete them or click the **eye icon** to hide them.

### Add blocks

***

Most sections are made up of individual **Blocks** for text, media, buttons, or other content, which are nested under sections in the editor panel.

* Click **(+) Add block** button to add or select the type of block you wish to add.
* Click the **block** to open the block settings.
