How to add Marquee 2 to the Sense theme

A holographic drop band for launches and restocks. One glow palette retunes the background, the words and the emblems together, with a Custom option for your own colours. A slow band of light drifts across behind the words, and stops for anyone who asks for reduced motion. This guide shows how to add the Marquee 2 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 Marquee 2 works on Sense

Marquees, tickers and rotating bars that push promotions, shipping thresholds and urgency without touching your theme. On Sense, Marquee 2 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 Marquee 2 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 “Marquee 2” in the library

    Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Announcement Bars 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:Marquee 2” 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.

Marquee 2 on Sense — FAQ

Does Marquee 2 work with the Sense theme?

Yes. Sense is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Marquee 2 installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Sense's theme editor as “SShop:Marquee 2”, alongside the theme's own sections.

Will Marquee 2 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 Marquee 2 free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Marquee 2 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.

Marquee 4

Announcement Bars

A scrolling band that can carry words, images, buttons and a live countdown together. The digits use tabular figures and the days field reserves the width it needs at render time, so a tick can never change the set width and jog the loop. The clock is worked out server-side first, so the numbers are right at first paint.

Marquee 3

Announcement Bars

A sale marquee with depth: a faint oversized ghost of the same words drifts behind at half speed, and the emblems bob gently in place. Words alternate filled and hollow, which is what gives the band its rhythm without needing a second colour. An emblem set to turn keeps turning, because spin and bob both animate the same property.

Marquee 1

Announcement Bars

A large scrolling band of words and emblems, in one row or two running opposite ways. Twelve emblems are drawn inline as SVG in filled and outlined weights, and words can be filled or hollow. The loop is pure CSS, so nothing has to be measured at runtime.
