Shopify Theme Blocks

Blocks are modules of content that can be added, removed, and reordered within a section. This allows merchants to have granular control over the look and feel of every aspect of their online store. Each section can have a maximum of 16 blocks per section. 

For example, creating simple footer to demonstrate how multiple blocks can be included in a section. The easiest way to start may be to look at the full section, and then analyze each individual piece in isolation:

<footer class="footer">
  
  {% for block in section.blocks %}  
    {% case block.type %}
  
      {% when 'link' %}  
        <div class="link" {{ block.shopify_attributes }}>   
          {{ block.settings.linktext | link_to: block.settings.linkurl }}
        </div> 
  
      {% when 'custom-text' %}
        <div class="text" {{ block.shopify_attributes }}>{{ block.settings.custom-text-field }}</div>
  
    {% endcase %} 
  {% endfor %}

</footer>
