Checklist
The Checklist section puts a short list of check-marked points next to a photo — a quick “what you get with us” summary.
What it does
Section titled “What it does”Use it near a product grid or before the footer to sum up your selling points: quality, safety, shipping, guarantees. Each item is one line with an icon; the section starts with an example you replace.
Add it to a page
Section titled “Add it to a page”- In Shopify admin, go to Online Store → Themes and click Edit theme. (Older admin versions label this button Customize.)
- Open the template where you want the section.
- Click Add section and choose Checklist.
- Click Add block → Checklist item for each line (up to 10).
- Type your Text and pick an Icon per item, then save.
Choose a style
Section titled “Choose a style”The Layout setting switches between three looks:
| Style | Look | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Split (default) | Photo on one side, heading and list on the other | Image position swaps the sides |
| Two columns | A plain two-column list without a photo | |
| Tint cards | Each item becomes a soft pastel card in a grid | On phones the cards sit two per row |
Set it up: quick start
Section titled “Set it up: quick start”- Add the section and keep the Split layout.
- Upload an Image that matches your list (a product group, your packaging, your team).
- Edit the checklist blocks: one short benefit per line.
- Save and preview on the phone — two-column reading stays comfortable at 375 px.
Settings
Section titled “Settings”Section settings
Section titled “Section settings”| Setting | Default | Options | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Layout | Split | Split / Two columns / Tint cards | Switches the overall look |
| Heading | “Why pet parents choose us” | Text | Section title; leave empty for no title |
| Subheading | Empty | Text | Small line under the heading |
| Image | Empty | Image picker | Photo for the Split layout. Landscape, around 1600×1200 |
| Image position | Left | Left / Right | Which side the photo sits on |
Blocks
Section titled “Blocks”Add up to 10 Checklist item blocks — one per line.
| Block | Limit | What it adds |
|---|---|---|
| Checklist item | 10 | One icon + one line of text |
Checklist item settings
| Setting | Default | Options | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Text | “Add a checklist item” | Text | The benefit in one short line |
| Icon | Check circle | Check circle / Check / Paw / Heart / Shield / Leaf / Star / Truck | Icon before the line |
Images and content tips
Section titled “Images and content tips”- Image: landscape around 1600×1200. It shows in the Split layout only.
- Keep each item to one line (~40 characters) so no item wraps awkwardly on phones.
- Four to six items read best; ten is the maximum.
Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- Only promises you keep. Like all trust content, checklist lines are your claims — match them to your real policies.
- In the Tint cards layout, cards use the theme’s pastel colors and stay consistent with other tinted sections on the page.
- The photo is optional in Split — without one, the list takes the full width.
Example setups
Section titled “Example setups”Product-page reassurance. Split layout, photo of the product in use, five items: “Vet-approved formulas”, “Free shipping over $49”, “30-day returns”, “Secure checkout”, “Real pet parents on support”.
Minimal grid. Two columns layout, heading “What’s included”, six short items with Check icons — no photo needed.
Common questions
Section titled “Common questions”My list has nine items and looks crowded. That’s more than the layout was designed for — trim to the five or six points that matter most.
The icon I want isn’t in the list. Pick the closest of the eight built-in icons; for custom images, use a Multicolumn section instead.
The image doesn’t show. Images only appear in the Split layout — check that Layout is set to Split and an image is uploaded.
