# How to Add Announcement Bar 4 to the Sense Theme

A marquee bar with two pinned ends: a fixed label on the left and a fixed button on the right, with the messages scrolling between them. Only the middle moves, so the offer name and the call to action stay readable and clickable. On phones the button can shrink to an arrow to leave the messages room. This guide shows how to add the Announcement Bar 4 section to the Sense theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Sense's code. Sense is a free theme by Shopify, known for soft gradients, rounded cards, wellness-brand energy — and announcement bars like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Announcement Bar 4 fits Sense

Marquees, tickers and rotating bars that push promotions, shipping thresholds and urgency without touching your theme. On Sense, Announcement Bar 4 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 Sense'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 Sense setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Announcement Bar 4” 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 Sense theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Sense uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Sense theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Announcement Bar 4” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Sense font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Announcement Bar 4 work with the Sense theme?

Yes. Sense is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Announcement Bar 4 installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Sense's theme editor as “SShop:Announcement Bar 4”, alongside the theme's own sections.

### Will Announcement Bar 4 match Sense's design?

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

### Is Announcement Bar 4 free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Announcement Bar 4 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 Sense theme and keeps working.
