# How to Add Study Slider to the Studio Theme

> Source: https://section-shop.com/theme-guides/studio/add-study-slider/ — Section Shop, 164 free native Shopify sections. Install: https://apps.shopify.com/section-shop

Card slider with heading, description, and navigation buttons. Features customizable card dimensions, gap spacing, stats section, and smooth slide transitions with arrow navigation. This guide shows how to add the Study Slider section to the Studio theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Studio's code. Studio is a free theme by Shopify, known for gallery grids and art-forward presentation — and hero & banners like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Study Slider fits Studio

First-impression sections: hero layouts, promotional banners and rotating showcases that make visitors stop scrolling. For Studio specifically, this is one of the strongest matches in the library: limited social-proof options, and Study Slider fills that gap while inheriting Studio's typography automatically, so it looks native from the first save. The polaroid-style gallery section gives Studio stores a personal, behind-the-scenes feel stock grids can’t.

## 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 Studio setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Study Slider” 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 Studio theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Studio uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Studio theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Study Slider” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Studio font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Study Slider work with the Studio theme?

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

### Will Study Slider match Studio's design?

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

### Is Study Slider free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Study Slider 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 Studio theme and keeps working.
