Image with text
Theme section
The Image with text section combines a feature image with a marketing call to action block. With a flexible layout and optional button, it's a great way to introduce a product collection or something new and exciting.
Set up section
Add this section to any template (except Checkout) 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.
Add feature image
Upload a feature image to display on the left or right of the marketing text block. You can adjust the width, shape, and focal point of your image.
Add autoplay video
Instead of a feature image, 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) |
The autoplay video does not play audio. To embed a single video from YouTube or Vimeo with audio, see Lorenza's Video section.
Section headings and style
This section has blocks for three text headings. You can customize the alignment, color, and overall look of your text.
Add call-to-action button
You can link to you collections or products or any other page with a custom call-to-action button.
