Sections

Quotes or testimonials are important because they allow merchants to build trust with customers by displaying positive messages from previous customers or brand supporters. This dynamic section allows merchants to display quotes or testimonials from previous customers on their homepage. This example makes use of section blocks to add multiple quotes, up to a maximum of 8.

  1. Create a new file within the sections folder of your theme, and paste the code below into this file. Save file as quotes.liquid.
  2. Add your own required styling for the quotes to the theme.scss.liquid file and include SVG quote icon if needed.
  3. Navigate to the theme editor and select “Add section”. Within the “Text” category there will be an option for “Quotes”. A maximum of 8 image blocks with links can be added.

I know this is old but it seems like you have two {% schema %} tags on the page.

If anyone is looking to add Testimonials to the homepage of a store using the Dawn theme, an easy way of doing it is by using the slideshow section:

  1. add a slideshow section

  2. each block is a quote: the Heading field is the testimonial itself; the Subheading field can be the author’s name.

  3. As for the image, use a blank image (or an image with a plain colour of your choice). Alternatively you can use an image that’s related to your store.

  4. make sure to disable the option “Show content below images on mobile”, so it doesn’t look off on mobile.
