⚠️ Before you start: This guide uses the Block in Block system. If you're not familiar with Group blocks and Item list blocks yet, read the Block in Block concept guide first.

2. Block structure at a glance

Before touching any settings, here's the full nesting structure you'll be building. Use this as your map throughout the guide.

Stat counter - section   ├── Header - hidden for this look   └── Stat list - Item list · Grid · 6 cols desktop · 3 tablet · 2 mobile       └── Banner - Group · one per card · own color scheme           ├── Subheading - "Save up to"           ├── Text - Group · holds the discount number           │   ├── Heading - the large number (e.g. "35")           │   └── Off - Group · Vertical · holds the unit and label           │       ├── Subheading - "%" or "$"           │       └── Subheading - "Off"           ├── Image - product image           ├── Heading - category name (e.g. "Laptops")           ├── Text - short description           └── Button - "Shop now" · Text link style       ↻ Repeat the Banner Group 6 times - one per card

🔍 Reminder: Block names in the Theme Editor sidebar may differ from the names in this guide. The Stat list is an Item list block, and each Banner is a Group block. You can identify them by their icons - refer to the Block in Block guide if unsure.

3. Step-by-step guide

🚩 Process 1: Add the Stat counter section and hide the Header 

STEP 1: Add the Stat counter section to your page.

  • Open the Shopify Theme Editor (Online Store > Themes > Customize).
  • Navigate to the page where you want to place this section.
  • Click "Add section" and select Stat counter.

STEP 2: Hide the Header block.

  • In the left sidebar, find the Header block under your new Stat counter section.
  • Click the eye icon next to it to hide it. This look doesn't use the header area.

STEP 3: Configure the section-level settings.

  • Click on the Stat counter section to open its settings panel.
  • Set Section width to Full width.
  • Set Top padding to 16px and Bottom padding to 0px.
  • Set Color scheme (light) to Scheme 1 and Color scheme (dark) to Scheme 2. (This is up to you)

-----------------------------------------

🚩 Process 2: Configure the Stat list (Item list)

The Stat list is the Item list container that holds all 6 cards. Click on it in the sidebar to open its settings.

Setting Value
Display type Grid
Items per row (Desktop) 6
Items per row (Tablet) 3
Items per row (Mobile) 2
Gap (spacing between cards) 12px
Padding (Mobile) - Top 8px

Leave all other settings at their defaults.

-----------------------------------------

🚩 Process 3: Build one Banner card (Group)

You'll build one card fully, then duplicate it 5 times. All 6 cards share the same internal structure - only the content and color scheme change.

STEP 1: Add the Banner Group inside the Stat list

  • Delete all the Stat blocks inside the Stat list.
  • Click "Add block" inside the Stat list and select Group. This becomes your first Banner card. (name it Banner for easier setup)
  • Click on the Banner to open its settings and configure:
Setting Value
Vertical alignment - Desktop Top
Vertical alignment - Mobile Top
Size - Width Custom
Size - Desktop width 100%
Size - Mobile width 100%
Inner Spacing -
Desktop (Vertical + Horizontal)
24px
Inner Spacing -
Mobile (Vertical + Horizontal)
12px
Color scheme (light) Choose the card's background color - each card uses a different scheme
Color scheme (dark) Same as above for dark mode

 

STEP 2: Add the "Save up to" Subheading

  • Inside the Banner, click "Add block" and add a Subheading.
  • Enter "Save up to" as the text.
  • Set font size to Medium.

 

STEP 3: Build the discount number area (Text Group → Heading + Off Group)

The large discount display (e.g., "35 % Off") uses a two-level nesting. First, add a container Group for the whole number area:

  • Inside the Banner, click "Add block" and add a Group. Rename it Text for clarity.
  • Set its direction to Horizontal on the desktop & mobile so the number and the unit sit side by side.

Inside the Text Group, add the large number:

  • Click "Add block" inside the Text Group and add a Heading.
  • Enter the discount number only - e.g., 35. No symbol yet.
  • Set font size to Large (or Custom if you want a larger size).

Still inside the Text Group, add the unit and label:

  • Click "Add block" and add another Group. Rename it Off.
  • Set its direction to Vertical so "%" and "Off" stack on top of each other.
  • Inside the Off Group, add a Subheading and enter % (or $ for money-based discounts).
  • Add a second Subheading and enter Off.

 

STEP 4: Add the product Image

  • Back in the Banner (not inside Text), click "Add block" and add an Image.
  • Upload or select your product image.

 

STEP 5: Add the category Heading

  • Click "Add block" and add a Heading.
  • Enter the category name, e.g., Laptops.
  • Set font size to Medium.

 

STEP 6: Add the description Text

  • Click "Add block" and add a Text block.
  • Enter the short description, e.g., Powerful processors, all-day battery, and sleek designs – save on ultrabooks.

 

STEP 7: Add the Shop now Button

  • Click "Add block" and add a Button.
  • Set the label to Shop now.
  • Set Button style to Text link.
  • Add the destination URL in the Button link field.

-----------------------------------------

🚩 Process 4: Duplicate the Banner card 5 more times

Now that one card is complete, you don't need to build the other 5 from scratch.

STEP 1: In the left sidebar, click on the Banner Group you just built.

STEP 2: Click the ⋯ (three dots) menu at the top of the settings panel and select "Duplicate block". Repeat until you have 6 Banner cards total.

STEP 3: For each duplicated card, update:

  • The Heading number (e.g., 25, 15, 199, 99, 299)
  • The unit Subheading ("%" or "$" depending on the card)
  • The Image
  • The category Heading text
  • The description Text
  • The Button link URL
  • The Color scheme of the Banner Group - give each card a distinct scheme to create the varied background colors

-----------------------------------------

🚩 Process 5: Save and check the result

Click "Save" in the Theme Editor. Then preview your store - your section should look like this:


If something looks off, check these common issues:

  • Cards are stacking vertically instead of showing in a row - make sure the Stat list Display type is set to Grid, not Carousel.
  • The Header area is showing - confirm the Header block is hidden (eye icon toggled off).
  • The "%" and "Off" are side by side instead of stacked - confirm the Off Group direction is set to Vertical.
  • The number and unit are stacked instead of side by side - confirm the Text Group direction is set to Horizontal.
