How to add Countdown Boxed to the Motion theme

Boxed style countdown with side content layout. Card-based design with border, image support, feature list, and countdown timer in an elegant contained format. This guide shows how to add the Countdown Boxed section to the Motion theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Motion's code. Motion is a premium theme by Archetype Themes, known for animation and video-first product pages — and countdown timers like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

Why Countdown Boxed works on Motion

Deadline-driven sections for launches, drops and sales — hero countdowns, boxed timers and product-launch layouts. On Motion, Countdown Boxed 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 Motion's own sections in the picker — prefixed "SShop:" so it's easy to spot.

How to add Countdown Boxed to Motion, 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 Motion setup until you add a section.

  2. 2

    Find “Countdown Boxed” in the library

    Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Countdown Timers category — or use search.

  3. 3

    Click “Add to theme”

    Section Shop writes the section into your Motion theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Motion uses for its own sections.

  4. 4

    Open the Motion theme editor

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

  5. 5

    Customize and save

    Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Motion font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

Countdown Boxed on Motion — FAQ

Does Countdown Boxed work with the Motion theme?

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

Will Countdown Boxed match Motion's design?

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

Is Countdown Boxed free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Countdown Boxed 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 Motion theme and keeps working.
