# Create a Theme Section Build a custom section in Foxify and add it to any page in your Shopify theme editor, without touching code. **From v5.3.0**: New sections now open in [FoxStudio](https://docs.foxecom.com/foxify-app/foxstudio/overview) editor. If you have sections created before v5.3.0, those will continue to open in Legacy editor when you edit them. See [our Changelog](https://docs.foxecom.com/foxify-app/changelog). ## Section types When creating a section, choose the type that fits your use case: | Type | How it works | Best for | | --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Static section | Content and layout managed in Foxify. One section design appears on all pages it's added to. Update once, updates everywhere. | Testimonials, review walls, FAQ sections, global promotional banners | | Dynamic section | Layout managed in Foxify, but editable content per-page in Shopify Theme Editor. Same design, different content on different pages. | Product-specific callouts, page-specific announcements. |
Not sure which to pick? Start with **Static** — it's simplier and works for most use cases. Switch to **Dynamic** if you need different content on different pages. ## Create a theme section with Foxify 1. In the Foxify left sidebar, go to **Sections mananger**. 2.

Click **Section settings** in the editor. 2. Enter a **Section title** — this is how the section appears in your Shopify Theme Editor. 3. Select a **Section type** (Static or Dynamic) 4. Click **Update**. ![](https://docs-assets.foxecom.app/foxify-app/9c0865fc-5ddb-4308-a523-64f18ab8b285.png) Click **Publish** when your section is ready. Publishing your section in Foxify does **not** add it to your storefront automatically. It makes the section available to add in your Shopify Theme Editor — nothing changes on your live store until you add it there. 1. Go to **Shopify admin > Online Store > Themes**. 2. Click **Edit theme** on your active theme. 3. Navigate to the page template where you want to add the section. 4. Click **Add section**. 5. Find and select your Foxify section — all Foxify sections are labeled **\[Foxify]...** in the list. 6. Click **Save**. ✅ **Done when:** the section appears on your storefront page. ## FAQs **How many sections can I create?**
The number of sections you can create depends on your Foxify plan. Go to **Settings > Plan** to see your current plan usage. **What happens when I delete a custom section in Foxify?**
The section is removed from Foxify and automatically deleted from any theme pages it's been added to. Make sure you want to fully remove the section before deleting — this action cannot be undone. **What if I have multiple themes?**
You can change the theme Foxify works with and re-publish the sections to add the custom theme sections to that theme. See: [Pick a theme to work with Foxify](https://docs.foxecom.com/foxify-app/faqs-and-troubleshooting/faqs/pick-a-theme-to-work-with-foxify) **I created a section before v5.3.0 — will it still work?**
Yes — existing sections are not affected. They'll continue to work and will open in the Legacy editor when you edit them. Only new sections created from v5.3.0 onwards use FoxStudio. **Can I use a Foxify theme section on a Foxify page?**
Not directly, but you can reuse the section design as a Saved Asset — this only works for sections created in the FoxStudio editor. Right-click the section in the editor, select **Save as Asset**, then add it to any Foxify page from **Add elements > Saved assets**. Sections created before in the Legacy editor and can't be saved this way. Learn more: [Save and re-use Assets](https://docs.foxecom.com/foxify-app/foxstudio/page-customization/save-and-re-use-assets)
