# How to Add Marquee 4 to the Craft Theme

A scrolling band that can carry words, images, buttons and a live countdown together. The digits use tabular figures and the days field reserves the width it needs at render time, so a tick can never change the set width and jog the loop. The clock is worked out server-side first, so the numbers are right at first paint. This guide shows how to add the Marquee 4 section to the Craft theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Craft's code. Craft is a free theme by Shopify, known for craftsmanship feel, warm minimalism — and announcement bars like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Marquee 4 fits Craft

Marquees, tickers and rotating bars that push promotions, shipping thresholds and urgency without touching your theme. On Craft, Marquee 4 slots in like any built-in section: it inherits the theme's fonts by default, picks up your color choices in the editor, and lives alongside Craft's own sections in the picker — prefixed "SShop:" so it's easy to spot.

## Steps

1. **Install Section Shop (free)** — Add the app from the Shopify App Store. It's free, carries the Built for Shopify badge, and changes nothing in your Craft setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Marquee 4” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Announcement Bars category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Craft theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Craft uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Craft theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Marquee 4” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Craft font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Marquee 4 work with the Craft theme?

Yes. Craft is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Marquee 4 installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Craft's theme editor as “SShop:Marquee 4”, alongside the theme's own sections.

### Will Marquee 4 match Craft's design?

By default the section inherits your theme's fonts, so it picks up Craft's typography automatically. Colors, spacing, images and content are all editable in the theme editor — no CSS required.

### Is Marquee 4 free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Marquee 4 is free, like every section in the 164-section library. Once added it's a standard theme file: if you uninstall the app, the section stays in your Craft theme and keeps working.
