Freestyle Images Section (drag and drop)

Topic summary

Goal: Replicate a Wix-style, drag-and-drop multi-image reviews section in a new Shopify store. The poster shared a reference image and Wix link to show the desired layout.

Options proposed:

  • Custom code: Create a new Shopify section (e.g., reviews-gallery.liquid) via Online Store > Themes > Edit Code, then build the layout with HTML/CSS (Flexbox/Grid) or a slider. This requires working with Shopify’s theme files and Liquid (Shopify’s templating language).
  • No-code apps (recommended): Install a reviews app like Loox or Judge.me from the Shopify App Store. Enable image uploads in reviews, use the app’s drag-and-drop gallery/display options, customize layout/colors, choose placement (product pages or a dedicated page), ensure responsive settings, import existing reviews, and manage moderation. Benefits include ease of setup, support, customization, SEO features, and automated review requests.

Latest update: After the poster said they aren’t a coder, step-by-step no-code instructions using Loox/Judge.me were provided.

Status: Guidance provided; implementation not yet confirmed. No disagreements raised.

Hi @brittemartinez

To recreate a multi-image drag-and-drop review section in Shopify similar to Wix, follow these steps:

  1. Custom Code Section: In Online Store > Themes, select Edit Code and create a new section (e.g., reviews-gallery.liquid).
  2. HTML & CSS: Add HTML to display images in a grid or slider format. Use CSS Flexbox or Grid for layout.
  3. App Option: Alternatively, consider using a review app like Loox or Judge.me that supports image reviews and galleries.
  4. Customize: Adjust layout and style for desktop and mobile views.

This method gives you flexibility and replicates Wix’s drag-and-drop look.

If you have other questions, I am willing to answer them more.

Best regards,

Daisy
