Block: Section Title
The Section Title (or Heading) lets you create catchy titles/headings for each content block. Since the Section Title is an independent content block, you get total control to decide where and how to use it. You can enrich the Title/Heading block with an icon, featured image, tagline, and a CTA button.
What is the Section Title section perfect for?
You have various options to use the Section Title section for your Shopify themes:
- Present elements for Hero sections - Heading, Icons, Description, and CTA button: See an example here.
- Heading for a content block: See an example here.
- Rich text to highlight product features: See an example here.

Add other content blocks
You can add many content blocks to a section you've created. These content blocks will be displayed in different positions within the section, depending on the Desktop/Mobile Layouts you configure.
How to add SVG icons to Section Title
In the past, Shopify did not allow uploading SVG files (It only supported JPG, PNG, GIF, and WebP on supported browsers). That's why we provided a workaround to add SVGs inline into the Section Title blocks. Now, this option is deprecated since Shopify now allows uploading SVG files.
To add an SVG icon to the Section Title block, simply upload your SVG icon directly through the Icons field.
