Testimonials
Display customer reviews and quotes in a card grid. Builds trust and social proof for your brand.
What it looks like
Here's the testimonials section alongside its settings in the theme editor. The left panel shows the settings you'll see in Customize, and the right shows the result on your storefront.

Image sizes
An author photo is requested at 128px wide and displayed as a 40px circle, cropped to fill. Use a square, closely cropped headshot — anything wider loses its sides to the circle.
Settings
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Color scheme | Picks which set of colors to use for this section |
| Heading | The title above the testimonial cards |
| Columns | Cards per row, 1 to 4. Two-up is two across at every width; three-up widens from tablet and four-up from desktop, so cards stay readable on smaller screens. |
Blocks
Each testimonial is a block with these settings:
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Star rating | How many stars to show (0–5, 0 hides the stars) |
| Quote | The customer's review text |
| Author name | The customer's name |
| Author title | An optional label like "Verified buyer" |
| Image | An optional photo of the customer |
When it isn't showing
The section always renders its heading, so one with no quotes is a heading on its own. Each quote is a Testimonial block.
A testimonial with no author name or photo still shows its quote — those fields are optional. If the quotes sit in one column when you expected several, check Columns.
Tips
- Three columns is the sweet spot for most stores — it fills the width without making each card too narrow to read.
- Include one 4-star review among the 5-star ones. A wall of perfect scores looks less trustworthy than a mix.
- Keep quotes short — 1–2 sentences. You can always link to a full reviews page for more detail.
