Quick setup

The home page template includes default sections to get you started. In the theme editor, you can customize the content and layout of your page.

For an effective home page, we recommended focusing on a few essentials: introduce your brand and products, highlight promotions and sales, and present clear calls to action for your customers.

Use the Templates selector to open Home page.
Add and edit theme sections to design the layout of your page.
Click the Hide icon or Remove section button to hide or delete sections.
Click and hold the drag and drop handles ⋮⋮ to change the order of sections.
(Recommended.) Consider starting with a few of the following sections:

A few Featured collections or Featured product to showcase top sellers or new arrivals.
A simple Rich text section to introduce your store or highlight your product's features.
Add Testimonials to build trust with quotes from partners and customers.
An Image with text to announce promotions with a call-to-action.
A Newsletter section to grow your email subscribers list.
