In the Collection banner settings, you can customize its overall section style, along with the banner image and description. You can also choose to enable breadcrumb navigation.
Use the style settings to change the image height, define an image focal point, and add a color or gradient overlay on top of your image.
Set up banner image
By default, the Collection banner displays the Collection image added in your Shopify Admin. In the theme editor, you can adjust the look and style of your collection image and headings.
Click on the Collection banner section to open the section settings.
To hide the Collection image, uncheck the Show collection image option.
Select the Image focal point to specify the main focus of your image. The focal point of your image will remain centered and within frame when your site adapts to different screen sizes.
See our image guideto learn more about using focal points for section images and sitewide images.
(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.
(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.
Change the Text color to match your headings to your brand and make sure the text is readable.
We recommend using WebAIM's contrast checker when matching colors to make sure your text is clear and readable for everyone.
Click Save.
