Featured Collection Section Documentation

The Featured Collection section is used to showcase a curated set of products from a specific collection on any page of your store. It supports both grid and slider layouts, making it ideal for homepages, landing pages, or campaign pages where you want to highlight best-sellers or new arrivals.

Customization Tips

  • Collection Name as Title: Enable "Use collection name as title" to keep your heading automatically in sync with the collection name in Shopify admin — no need to update the theme every time the collection name changes.

  • Slider vs Grid: Enable the desktop slider when you want to show more products than your column count allows without overwhelming the layout. The slider adds prev/next navigation arrows and a slide counter automatically.

  • Quick Add – Bulk Mode: Bulk Quick Add is ideal for stores where customers typically buy multiple quantities (e.g., wholesale or consumables). It adds a quantity popover and price-per-item display directly on the card.

  • Image Shape: The "Blob" and "Arch" shapes load additional CSS mask files. These add visual flair but use them consistently across sections for a cohesive look.

  • Ratings: The "Show rating" option requires a third-party Shopify ratings/reviews app (e.g., Judge.me, Yotpo) with metafield support to display correctly.

  • Full Width + Slider: Combining "Full width" with the desktop or mobile slider gives a premium, magazine-style product carousel that spans the entire screen width.
