Video
The Video section allows you to feature a video on your store’s page — ideal for showcasing products, brand storytelling, or promotional content. It supports both external and Shopify-hosted videos and includes options to customize layout and appearance.
This section can be added, removed, and reordered within templates as needed.
How to Configure the Video
In Shopify admin, go to Online Store → Themes.
Click Customize next to the Elemento theme.
In the theme editor, navigate to the desired page template (e.g. Home page) using the top preview dropdown.
In the left sidebar, click Add section, then select Video, or locate it if it’s already added.
Add your video by pasting a URL from supported platforms (e.g., YouTube or Vimeo) or uploading a video file.
You can drag and drop this section to reorder it on the page.
Click Save.
