Appearance
Hero logo ​
This guide describes how to set up the Hero logo section.
Use the section to display a custom logo on your store's pages by using an image file from Shopify's free library or your store's media library.

The previous image shows an example store's home page. In the upper left, part of the Theme editor's Hero logo section menu is displayed. The menu's Enable overlay option is enabled. This option turns on or off overlay mode for the section. Enabling this setting overlays a page's first section with the Hero logo section. For example, in the previous image, the Hero logo section's Hella Goods image overlays the section below it.
For general guidance with modifying sections, refer to Sections overview and Shopify help: Sections and blocks.
