How to add Reviews Wall to the Dawn theme

Pinterest-style masonry layout with social media look. Mixed review sizes, source icons (verified, Instagram, etc.), and dynamic flowing layout. This guide shows how to add the Reviews Wall 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 Wall works on 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 Wall 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.

How to add Reviews Wall to Dawn, step by step

  1. 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. 2

    Find “Reviews Wall” in the library

    Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Testimonials & Reviews category — or use search.

  3. 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. 4

    Open the Dawn theme editor

    In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Reviews Wall” in the picker.

  5. 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.

Reviews Wall on Dawn — FAQ

Does Reviews Wall work with the Dawn theme?

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

Will Reviews Wall 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 Wall free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Reviews Wall 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.

Testimonials & Reviews

Customer reviews on a coloured band: a star rating in a pill, a heading and a row of cards that scrolls, each with the review, a verified mark, an initial or photo, the name and stars. Arrows on computers, a swipe on phones, and wavy edges if you want them.

Reviews Summary 1

Testimonials & Reviews

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.

Photo Reviews 1

Testimonials & Reviews

Customer reviews that lead with the photo: the piece being worn, then the stars, a title, the words and who wrote them with a verified mark. A rating line sits over the heading, the cards form a grid of two to four, and on phones they become a swipe row.
