# How to Add Shoppable Video to the Refresh Theme

> Source: https://section-shop.com/theme-guides/refresh/add-shoppable-video/ — Section Shop, 164 free native Shopify sections. Install: https://apps.shopify.com/section-shop

A grid of short vertical videos, each tied to a product with its image, name, price and discount. Play automatically, on hover or on click; YouTube and Vimeo load only when clicked so several embeds never slow the page. Cards hide individually and the grid follows how many are shown. This guide shows how to add the Shoppable Video section to the Refresh theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Refresh's code. Refresh is a free theme by Shopify, known for editorial layouts and generous whitespace — and shoppable video & stories like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Shoppable Video fits Refresh

Product-linked videos, story bubbles and reels that bring products to life. On Refresh, Shoppable Video 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 Refresh'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 Refresh setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Shoppable Video” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Shoppable Video & Stories category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Refresh theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Refresh uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Refresh theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Shoppable Video” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Refresh font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Shoppable Video work with the Refresh theme?

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

### Will Shoppable Video match Refresh's design?

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

### Is Shoppable Video free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Shoppable Video 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 Refresh theme and keeps working.
