Text marquee ​

This guide describes setting up the Text marquee section.

Use the section to provide messages for visitors by using text that moves across your store's pages. In the section's text, share information about your brand, describe products and collections, share announcements, or welcome customers to your store.

The previous video shows a Text marquee section on a store's homepage. The section is displayed below the Header, at the top of the page. In the section's settings, text is added to the Text box, and then displayed inside the section. A link is added to the store's Merch collection. When a store visitor selects the section, the Merch collection page opens. An animation effect scrolls the section's text from right to left. Each repeated occurrence of the text is separated by a 10 point star shape. An animation effect rotates the star shape.

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