# How to Add Neon Glow Marquee to the Origin Theme

> Source: https://section-shop.com/theme-guides/origin/add-neon-glow-marquee/ — Section Shop, 56 free native Shopify sections. Install: https://apps.shopify.com/section-shop

Eye-catching neon effects with glitch animation and rainbow text options. Features smooth scrolling, direction control, pause on hover, and customizable glow intensity. This guide shows how to add the Neon Glow Marquee section to the Origin theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Origin's code. Origin is a free theme by Shopify, known for bold type and product-first structure — and announcement bars like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Neon Glow Marquee fits Origin

Marquees, tickers and rotating bars that push promotions, shipping thresholds and urgency without touching your theme. For Origin specifically, this is one of the strongest matches in the library: needs stronger urgency and promotion sections, and Neon Glow Marquee fills that gap while inheriting Origin's typography automatically, so it looks native from the first save. Origin’s bold type pairs well with a stock ticker or marquee announcement — movement on top, specs below.

## 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 Origin setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Neon Glow Marquee” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Announcement Bars category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Origin theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Origin uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Origin theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Neon Glow Marquee” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Origin font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Neon Glow Marquee work with the Origin theme?

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

### Will Neon Glow Marquee match Origin's design?

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

### Is Neon Glow Marquee free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Neon Glow Marquee 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 Origin theme and keeps working.
