Apps

A section that holds app blocks on a row of their own – a reviews widget, an Instagram gallery, a form – with the theme's spacing, width and color schemes around them.

Set it up

  1. Install the app from the Shopify App Store.
  2. Add the Apps section where the app should appear, then Add block and pick the app's block under Apps.
  3. Choose Full width and a Color scheme, and adjust the spacing.

App blocks and app embeds

  • App blocks go inside sections. Most Index sections accept them directly – open the section and choose Add block. Use the Apps section when the block needs a row of its own.
  • App embeds – chat widgets, reviews badges, tracking – are turned on in Theme settings › App embeds and float over the whole store.

All settings

Every setting in the order of the theme editor, with its options and its default value.
