# How to Add Study Slider to the Dawn Theme

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

Card slider with heading, description, and navigation buttons. Features customizable card dimensions, gap spacing, stats section, and smooth slide transitions with arrow navigation. This guide shows how to add the Study Slider 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 hero & banners like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Study Slider fits Dawn

First-impression sections: hero layouts, promotional banners and rotating showcases that make visitors stop scrolling. On Dawn, Study Slider 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 “Study Slider” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Hero & Banners 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:Study Slider” 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 Study Slider work with the Dawn theme?

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

### Will Study Slider 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 Study Slider free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Study Slider 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.
