How to add Back to Top to the Sense theme

Enhance your store’s browsing experience with a simple “Back to Top” button. Smooth, user-friendly navigation helps customers explore your site with ease. This guide shows how to add the Back to Top 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 content & extras like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

Why Back to Top works on Sense

Instagram feeds, blog highlights, galleries and handy utilities that round out your storefront. On Sense, Back to Top 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.

How to add Back to Top to Sense, 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 Sense setup until you add a section.

  2. 2

    Find “Back to Top” in the library

    Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Content & Extras category — or use search.

  3. 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. 4

    Open the Sense theme editor

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

  5. 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.

Back to Top on Sense — FAQ

Does Back to Top work with the Sense theme?

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

Will Back to Top 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 Back to Top free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Back to Top 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.

The people behind the shop: a heading, a few lines that turn "we" into faces, then the team in a grid with a round photo, a first name, a role and one line each. Three or four per row, the last row centred.

Content & Extras

The latest posts of a blog as cards: photo, date, title, an excerpt and a read-more link, two to four per row. On an article page it leaves the current post out, so it reads as "read next".
