How to add Testimonials Grid to the Origin theme

Static grid layout for testimonials with hover effects. Customizable columns (2-4), star ratings, customer info, and subtle lift animation on hover. This guide shows how to add the Testimonials Grid 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 testimonials & reviews like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

Why Testimonials Grid works on Origin

Carousels, walls, marquees and video testimonials — social proof formats for every store style. On Origin, Testimonials Grid 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 Origin's own sections in the picker — prefixed "SShop:" so it's easy to spot.

How to add Testimonials Grid to Origin, 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 Origin setup until you add a section.

  2. 2

    Find “Testimonials Grid” 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 Origin theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Origin uses for its own sections.

  4. 4

    Open the Origin theme editor

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

  5. 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.

Testimonials Grid on Origin — FAQ

Does Testimonials Grid work with the Origin theme?

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

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

Testimonials Grid 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.
