Real countdown timer with animated urgency border and confetti effects. Split layout with highlighted section, pulse ring animation, and countdown functionality for flash sales. This guide shows how to add the Urgency Split Bar 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 announcement bars like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Urgency Split Bar fits Studio

Marquees, tickers and rotating bars that push promotions, shipping thresholds and urgency without touching your theme. On Studio, Urgency Split Bar 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 Studio'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 Studio setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Urgency Split Bar” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Announcement Bars 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:Urgency Split Bar” 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 Urgency Split Bar work with the Studio theme?

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

### Will Urgency Split Bar 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 Urgency Split Bar free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Urgency Split Bar 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 Studio theme and keeps working.
