Last updated 2 days ago

Was this helpful?

The Grid section displays a flexible collage of feature images. Mix and match between different size blocks and reorder them to create a promotional feature or lookbook layout.

Set up section


In the editor side panel, click (+) Add section and select Grid. Click and hold the drag handles ⋮⋮ to re-order sections.

Section styles

Sections include general styles. Click the section to find options for colors, spacing, and animations.

Set up grid items


Add Grid item blocks with adjustable widths. Create different layouts by reordering the blocks with the drag-and-drop handles ⋮⋮ and customize the width and height of each block.

  • Add images and alternate mobile images

  • Add headings and buttons with selected positions

  • Change the width and height of each item

STEPS: Add images

In your theme editor (Customize):

    Click (+) Add item to create new grid blocks.

    Click Remove block or the eye icon to delete or hide a block.

  2. Under Background image, click Select Image to select or upload an image.

    There are no required image dimensions. We recommend a minimum width of 2500px for optimal quality across all devices.

    (Optional.) Select or upload alternate Mobile image that looks best on smaller screen sizes.

  3. Change the Media fit to either have your image Cover the entire block or Contain the image in the block with its original shape.

  4. Use Image focal points to specify the main focus of your images. The focal point of your image will remain centered and within frame when your site adapts to different screen sizes.

  5. Use the Height and Mobile height sliders to control the maximum height of the grid item.

  6. Change the width of the grid item (for desktop screens). Either 100%, 66%, 50%, 33%, or 25%.

    We recommended a short title of just a few words.

    Change the Heading size to Small, Medium, or Large.

  4. Add Subheading text for a short paragraph.

    We recommend two to three short sentences.

    Change the Subheading size to Small, Medium, or Large.

  5. (Optional.) Add additional Text to display beneath the Subheading.

  6. Select a Text position (above) to position your headings (and button) in one of 9 areas of the grid block.

    Change the Text size to Small, Medium, or Large.

  7. Select a Text color to match your headings to your brand and make sure the text is readable.

  8. Click Save.

STEPS: Add buttons

In your theme editor (Customize):

  1. Click the Grid item block to open the settings.

  2. Select or paste a Link.

    Make sure you copy the full URL, including https:// at the start. For example: https://instagram.com/abc123.

  3. Enter text for a Button label.

    Leave the Button text blank to make the entire block a clickable link.

  4. Select a Button style: either Solid, Outline, or Text.

  5. Click Save.
