# How to Add Hero Banner to the Shrine Theme

Premium full-width hero with animated shape dividers (wave, curve, tilt, blob, triangle, zigzag), gradient overlays, and advanced background effects (particles, gradient shift, shimmer, pulse). The ultimate hero section. This guide shows how to add the Hero Banner 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 hero & banners like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Hero Banner fits Shrine

First-impression sections: hero layouts, promotional banners and rotating showcases that make visitors stop scrolling. On Shrine, Hero Banner 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 Shrine'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 Shrine setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Hero Banner” 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 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:Hero Banner” 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 Hero Banner work with the Shrine theme?

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

### Will Hero Banner 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 Hero Banner free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Hero Banner 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 Shrine theme and keeps working.
