# How to Add Slideshow 2 to the Sense Theme

An editorial slideshow: a rotated category label down the edge, a slide counter, and an optional product card pinned to the corner. Pick a product and the card fills itself in, or override any field by hand. Each slide declares whether its photo is light or dark, which moves the text colour and the veil together. This guide shows how to add the Slideshow 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 hero & banners like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Slideshow 2 fits Sense

First-impression sections: hero layouts, promotional banners and rotating showcases that make visitors stop scrolling. On Sense, Slideshow 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.

## 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 “Slideshow 2” 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 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:Slideshow 2” 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 Slideshow 2 work with the Sense theme?

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

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

Slideshow 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.
