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.

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 Shoppable feature.

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

Add feature image

Upload a single image of two or more of your products together. Adjust the position, size, and shape of your image before adding the hotspots next.

STEPS

In your theme editor (Customize):

1. Click on the Shoppable feature section to open the settings.

   
2. Under Image, use the Select image button to add a section image.

   There are no required image dimensions but we recommend uploading an image with a minimum width of 2050px for optimal quality.

3. Change the Image position to display the image(s) on the Left or Right side of the section.

4. Set the Image width to either 1/2 width or 2/3 width of the section.

5. Select the Image aspect ratio to crop your image to Square, Landscape, or Portrait.

   
6. Select the Image focal point to choose which section of the image to keep centered and visible.

   This setting ensures the key part of your image appears when cropping occurs.

7. (Optional.) Select an Overlay color to display overtop of the image and adjust the Overlay opacity using the slider.

   The Overlay lets you control the brightness and tone of images. Use this setting to balance it with other images and to increase contrast with headings so they're readable.

   Set the opacity to 0% to turn off the overlay color; set it to 100% to create a solid color block with no image.

8. (Optional.) Click the Overlay gradient option to add a color overlay that fades across a range of hues.

   You can choose the style, angle, position, and opacity of the gradient. See Shopify's color gradient guide ↗ to learn more.

9. Click Save.

Add promotional text

Change the section headings to promote your featured products.

STEPS

In your theme editor (Customize):

1. Click on the Shoppable feature section to open the section settings.

2. (Optional.) Add a Small heading to display above the Heading.

   We recommended using the small heading as a label or category for what you're showcasing in the slide, such as "Products", "Collections", or "Blog posts", etc.

3. Change the Heading text.

   We recommended a short title of just a few words.

4. Change the Subheading text.

   We recommend two to three short sentences.

5. Change the Text alignment to make the heading and subheading text Center, Left, or Right aligned.

6. Use the Max width of text sliders to control the maximum width of the heading and subheading.

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

7. Change the Text color to make sure the headings are readable against the other colors or your slide image.

8. (Optional.) Select a Text container color to display your text content in a solid box container. By default, the color is set to transparent.

9. Click Save.
