Theme customisation

Store Design
,

Topic summary

Goal: add a scroll-driven text-and-image change effect like the reference site.

  • Theme: using Dawn; user prefers not to switch to a paid theme.
  • Built-in options: checking Settings > Animations did not reveal this feature in Dawn.
  • Guidance: effect is commonly bundled in paid themes; in Dawn, it requires custom coding in a custom section.
  • Skills needed: Liquid (Shopify’s templating language), HTML/CSS, and JavaScript.
  • Cost/Support: may incur an additional charge if hiring an expert; offers to guide if the user is code-familiar.
  • Examples: links to a reference site and a similar implementation were shared; these are central to understanding the desired effect.
  • Tech approach: can be implemented with AOS (Animate On Scroll)-style animations; confirmed it should work similarly to the reference.

Outcome/Status:

  • No code or step-by-step solution was provided in-thread.
  • Consensus is that the feature isn’t native to Dawn and needs custom development or expert help.
  • Discussion remains open pending whether the user will implement code or hire assistance.

@Motoblox , it is called text and image animation almost every paid theme these preloading features by default, now depend on which theme are you using for your shop.
can you please share your store URL, so I can suggest you better way to achieve this feature within your store, or you need to use same paid theme,

I’ll be waiting for your answer.

Thanks

@Motoblox ,
you may need to go to settings, and scroll down to animations and select the available options for that, and you can try variations.

Thank you

@Motoblox ,

then it really needs coding into the theme file, you may need to hire an expert to do so, and if you are code-familiar you can also do it by testing the right code with the theme.

because free themes have limitations.

Thanks

@Motoblox Yes, this is possible with a custom section; however, it would incur an additional charge.

Hi @Motoblox

The Section you are looking for is possible but using a custom code inorder to create that section you must have knowledge about these

  • Liquid Code
  • html/css
  • Javascript

If you do have that knowledge than I can guide you how to create that section or if you don’t have than you must need to hire an expert for that
I have recently created that same section for a client you can check that here is the link
