Add homepage blocks: banners, carousels, and more

Build your homepage from 19 block types — drag them onto the canvas, configure each one, then publish when you're ready.

Homepage blocks are edited in the same store editor as your theme, but they work differently: every change is saved as a draft first, and customers only see it after you publish.

  1. 1

    Open the store editor

    From your admin dashboard, click Edit store.

    Add a block

    Drag a block from the widgets panel onto the canvas. Choose from Banner, Carousel, Product grid, Highlighted products, Text, Image + Text, Video, Countdown timer, FAQ accordion, Category showcase, Testimonials, Feature list, Promo bar, Call to action, Gallery, Newsletter signup, Menu, Map & location, or a Section container to group other blocks together.

    Configure it

    Click the block to open its settings in the right-hand panel — most blocks let you set images, text, links, and colors.

    Preview on other devices

    Use the device switcher at the top to check how the homepage looks on desktop, tablet, and mobile.

    Publish

    Click Publish in the top bar to make your changes live, or Discard to drop them and start over.

A Section container block can hold other blocks, but only one level deep — you can't nest a container inside another container.

Every edit you make is a draft until you click Publish. If you leave the editor without publishing, customers still see your last published version.
