About page
Template
Theme retirement Ira is no longer available on the Shopify theme store. Theme support and updates for current users will end after May 18, 2024. Learn more here.
The About page template provides an engaging way to tell your story. The template includes preset sections to showcase your store and vision, share your locations and hours, introduce team members, and let customers contact you.
This guide explains how to set up the about page template using theme sections.
Quick setup
For your about page, you first need to create a page and assign the about template in your Shopify admin. Then, in the theme editor, you can customize the page template using the preset theme sections.
Tip | Check out Shopify's blog post about what to include in your "About Us" page.
Create page and assign template
In your Shopify admin, you need to create a page and assign the about template.
Shopify | Pages are a Shopify feature: see Shopify's guide for creating pages.
Edit about page template
The default about page template includes preset theme sections designed to highlight your store's values, introduce your team, and provide store details and contact info.
We recommend first editing the preset sections and hiding any sections you won't use. Then, you can add other theme sections to further customize your page.
Add autoplay video
Add a muted autoplay video that loops continuously. You need to upload a .mp4 video to your Shopify admin and copy the link into your theme editor settings.
File Format | .mp4 video (required) |
---|---|
File size | Maximum 10MB (recommended) |
Duration | 5 - 10 seconds (recommended) |
Note | The autoplay video does not play audio. To embed a single video from YouTube or Vimeo with audio, see the Video section.
