This guide shows how to add the Follow Us on Instagram 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 content & extras like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Follow Us on Instagram fits Dawn

Instagram feeds, blog highlights, galleries and handy utilities that round out your storefront. On Dawn, Follow Us on Instagram 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 “Follow Us on Instagram” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Content & Extras 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:Instagram Feed” 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 Follow Us on Instagram work with the Dawn theme?

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

### Will Follow Us on Instagram 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 Follow Us on Instagram free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Follow Us on Instagram 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.
