How to add Testimonials Carousel to the Motion theme

Customer reviews carousel with star ratings, customer photos, and smooth slide transitions. Navigation arrows, dot indicators, autoplay option, and touch swipe support. This guide shows how to add the Testimonials Carousel 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 testimonials & reviews like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

Why Testimonials Carousel works on Motion

Carousels, walls, marquees and video testimonials — social proof formats for every store style. For Motion specifically, this is one of the strongest matches in the library: video testimonials and ugc-style proof, and Testimonials Carousel fills that gap while inheriting Motion's typography automatically, so it looks native from the first save. Video Testimonials next to Motion’s animated sections keeps the whole page moving without feeling chaotic.

How to add Testimonials Carousel 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 “Testimonials Carousel” 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 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:Reviews Carousel” 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.

Testimonials Carousel on Motion — FAQ

Does Testimonials Carousel work with the Motion theme?

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

Will Testimonials Carousel 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 Testimonials Carousel free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Testimonials Carousel 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 Motion 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.
