# How to Add Reviews Summary 1 to the Dawn Theme

> Source: https://section-shop.com/theme-guides/dawn/add-reviews-summary-1/ — Section Shop, 164 free native Shopify sections. Install: https://apps.shopify.com/section-shop

A reviews page in one section: the average and how many reviews it rests on, a bar for each star, a button to write one, then the reviews in a masonry wall with a sort menu and a Load more button. The summary is worked out from the reviews added here, or typed in when the real numbers live in another app. This guide shows how to add the Reviews Summary 1 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 testimonials & reviews like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Reviews Summary 1 fits Dawn

Carousels, walls, marquees and video testimonials — social proof formats for every store style. For Dawn specifically, this is one of the strongest matches in the library: no countdown or urgency sections, and Reviews Summary 1 fills that gap while inheriting Dawn's typography automatically, so it looks native from the first save. Dawn’s minimal typography carries over automatically: Section Shop sections inherit your Dawn font settings by default, so added sections look native from the first save.

## 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 “Reviews Summary 1” 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 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:Reviews Summary 1” 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 Reviews Summary 1 work with the Dawn theme?

Yes. Dawn is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Reviews Summary 1 installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Dawn's theme editor as “SShop:Reviews Summary 1”, alongside the theme's own sections.

### Will Reviews Summary 1 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 Reviews Summary 1 free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Reviews Summary 1 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 Dawn theme and keeps working.
