Image with features

Theme section

Use the Image with text section to highlight up to six key features of your products with custom text and icon-like images next to a full-height image.

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 insert dynamic content with metafields.

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 Image with features.

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

Add feature image

You can showcase a large image to the left or right of the features and adjust its width and crop it to be a different shape.

STEPS

In your theme editor (Customize):

  1. Click the Image with text section to open the section settings.

  2. Click Select image to upload and select an image file.

    There are no required images dimensions. We simply recommend uploaded images have a minimum width of 2500px for optimal quality across all devices.

  3. Choose to set the Image width to either 1/2 or 2/3 of the section.

  4. Select an Image aspect ratio to crop your image to Square, Landscape, or Portrait.

    The Natural setting displays the original shape of your image.

  5. Click Save.

Add feature blocks

You can add up to 6 Feature blocks with headings, subheadings, and a square or circle icon-like image to accompany or illustrate the individual feature.

STEPS

In your theme editor (Customize):

  1. Click (+) Add Feature and/or click on the Feature block you wish to edit.

  2. Under Image, click the Select image button to add a small image to display next to the feature content.

    We recommend a square image, ideally 160px by 160px.

  3. Change the Image shape of the feature image to either Round or Square.

  4. Change the Heading text.

    We recommended a short title of just a few words.

  5. Change the Subheading text.

    We recommend two to three short sentences.

    We also recommend trying to keep the subheading text for all Feature blocks around the same length.

  6. Use the Max width of text slider to control the maximum width of the article subheading.

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

  7. (Optional.) Click and hold the drag handles ⋮⋮ to rearrange the blocks:

    Click Remove block in the block settings to delete a block.

    Click the Eye icon to hide or unhide a block.

  8. Click Save.

Section layout

You can adjust the layout of the section by changing the Position and Alignment of the features.

STEPS

In your theme editor (Customize):

  1. Change the Text position to display the features to the Left or Right of the section image.

  2. Change the Text alignment to make the feature paragraphs Left, Center, or Right aligned.

  3. Click Save.

Customize the section Style with options for section Spacing, Animation, and Alternate section color.

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

  3. Choose to enable the Alternate section color to apply the secondary section colors selected in your theme settings for colors.

  4. Select a Spacing option to add padding around the section content.
