# How to Add Testimonials Carousel to the Craft Theme

> Source: https://section-shop.com/theme-guides/craft/add-testimonials-carousel/ — Section Shop, 56 free native Shopify sections. Install: https://apps.shopify.com/section-shop

Customer reviews carousel with star ratings, customer photos, and smooth slide transitions. Navigation arrows, dot indicators, autoplay option, and touch swipe support. This guide shows how to add the Testimonials Carousel 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 testimonials & reviews like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Testimonials Carousel fits Craft

Carousels, walls, marquees and video testimonials — social proof formats for every store style. On Craft, Testimonials Carousel 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 “Testimonials Carousel” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Testimonials & Reviews 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:Reviews Carousel” 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 Testimonials Carousel work with the Craft theme?

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

### Will Testimonials Carousel 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 Testimonials Carousel free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Testimonials Carousel is free, like every section in the 56-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.
