Feature testimonials

This guide describes how to set up the Feature testimonials section.

Use the section to display a feature layout on a store page to show reviews and comments from your store's customers, clients, and staff.

The previous image shows an example store's home page. In the center left, part of the Theme editor's Feature testimonials section menu is displayed. The menu's Testimonials > Font option is set to Heading. This option sets the section's testimonials text to use the same font as Heading or Body text. For example, in the previous image, the Heading text style is applied to the section's testimonial text.

For general guidance with modifying sections, refer to Sections overview and Shopify help: Sections and blocks.
