This guide shows how to add the Media Tabs section to the Impulse theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Impulse's code. Impulse is a premium theme by Archetype Themes, known for promotion-driven layouts and sales events — and faq sections like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Media Tabs fits Impulse

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

## FAQ

### Does Media Tabs work with the Impulse theme?

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

### Will Media Tabs match Impulse's design?

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

### Is Media Tabs free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Media Tabs 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 Impulse theme and keeps working.
