# How to Add Countdown Boxed to the Shrine Theme

Boxed style countdown with side content layout. Card-based design with border, image support, feature list, and countdown timer in an elegant contained format. This guide shows how to add the Countdown Boxed section to the Shrine theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Shrine's code. Shrine is a premium theme by Shrine, known for conversion-rate obsession and built-in marketing blocks — and countdown timers like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Countdown Boxed fits Shrine

Deadline-driven sections for launches, drops and sales — hero countdowns, boxed timers and product-launch layouts. For Shrine specifically, this is one of the strongest matches in the library: fresh section designs beyond the built-ins everyone recognizes, and Countdown Boxed fills that gap while inheriting Shrine's typography automatically, so it looks native from the first save. Shrine stores all look alike — swapping in Section Shop testimonial and comparison layouts is the cheapest way to stand out while keeping the CRO structure.

## 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 Shrine setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Countdown Boxed” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Countdown Timers category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Shrine theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Shrine uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Shrine theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Countdown Boxed” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Shrine font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Countdown Boxed work with the Shrine theme?

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

### Will Countdown Boxed match Shrine's design?

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

### Is Countdown Boxed free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Countdown Boxed is free, like every section in the 56-section library. Once added it's a standard theme file: if you uninstall the app, the section stays in your Shrine theme and keeps working.
