# How to Add FAQ Searchable to the Dawn Theme

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

FAQ with search functionality and instant filtering. Search box with icon, real-time filtering as user types, highlight matching questions, and no results message. This guide shows how to add the FAQ Searchable section to the Dawn theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Dawn's code. Dawn is a free theme by Shopify, known for speed, minimalism, being the Online Store 2.0 reference — and faq sections like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why FAQ Searchable fits Dawn

Accordions, tabs, searchable lists and two-column layouts that kill pre-purchase doubts and cut support tickets. On Dawn, FAQ Searchable 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 Dawn'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 Dawn setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “FAQ Searchable” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the FAQ Sections category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Dawn theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Dawn uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Dawn theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:FAQ Searchable” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Dawn font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does FAQ Searchable work with the Dawn theme?

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

### Will FAQ Searchable match Dawn's design?

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

### Is FAQ Searchable free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

FAQ Searchable 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 Dawn theme and keeps working.
