# How to Add Study Slider to the Refresh Theme

Card slider with heading, description, and navigation buttons. Features customizable card dimensions, gap spacing, stats section, and smooth slide transitions with arrow navigation. This guide shows how to add the Study Slider 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 hero & banners like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Study Slider fits Refresh

First-impression sections: hero layouts, promotional banners and rotating showcases that make visitors stop scrolling. On Refresh, Study Slider 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 “Study Slider” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Hero & Banners 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:Study Slider” 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 Study Slider work with the Refresh theme?

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

### Will Study Slider 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 Study Slider free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Study Slider 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.
