Featured collection row

Theme section

This feature was added in v5.0.0 on April 12, 2022. See our changelog and theme update guide to learn more.

The Featured collection row section displays a single-row carousel of products from a selected collection, with a title card as the first column.

See the Featured collection section for a carousel of products with the heading above the section, or the Featured collection grid for an alternate layout.

Set up section

Add this section to your template and use the drag-and-drop handles to re-order its position. You can add this section multiple times with different content and settings.

Editing a template changes all pages that use that template. To edit specific pages, you can create new templates or use metafields and dynamic sources.

STEPS

In your theme editor (Customize):

1. Select a Template to edit from the dropdown menu in the top bar.

   Learn how to use templates in our Templates guide.

2. Under Template, click (+) Add section and select Featured collection row.

3. Click and hold the drag-and-drop handles ⋮⋮ to re-order your sections.

STEPS

In your theme editor (Customize):

1. Click on the Featured collection row section to open the section settings.

   
2. Change the Small heading text that displays above the Heading.

   We recommended using the Small heading as a label or category such as "Collections" or "Sale".

3. Change the Heading text for the section title.

   We recommended a short title of just a few words.

4. Change the Subheading text displayed below the heading.

   We recommend two or three short sentences.

5. Change the "Shop now" Button text for your call-to-action button.

   The button links to the selected feature collection.

   The most effective button labels ask your customers to do something (e.g. Get started, Join us, Shop now). To learn more, read "What is a Call to Action?"

6. Click Save

Section style and layout

Once you've added a featured collection and your section content, you can customize the overall look of the section.

STEPS

In your theme editor (Customize):

1. Click on the Featured collection section to open the section settings.

2. (Optional.) Use the Section style dropdown to use Contrast colors.

   The Contrast style uses the contrast colors in your Theme Settings.

3. Choose whether to Enable animation to show visual effects when scrolling, hovering, or interacting with the section.

4. Select a Text position for the section headings, either the Left or Right side of the row.

5. Select the number of Columns of products to display at one time. Choose between 2 and 4 columns.

6. To make your images a uniform shape and size, select the Image aspect ratio to crop your images to Square, Landscape, or Portrait.

   The default Natural setting will display the original orientation of your image.

   
7. Use the Max width of text slider to control the maximum width of the headings.

   Use this setting to create a clean visual shape for your text and avoid unwanted line breaks.

8. Click Save.
