Section settings

Content

Caption Small label above the heading, used for eyebrow text like a category or a date.
Heading The section title. Leave it empty to hide the heading row entirely and let the content start at the top.
Heading size Picks one of the heading sizes defined in Theme settings → Typography, so headings stay consistent across sections instead of being sized one by one.

Choose Default (default), H1, H2, H3, H4, H5 or H6.
Description Body copy shown under the heading. Supports bold, italic and links.

Appearance

Color scheme Sets the background, text, border and button colors for the section. Schemes are defined once in Theme settings → Colors and reused everywhere, so changing a scheme updates every section using it.

Tips

  • Keep the newsletter on before launch. Signups become customers tagged "newsletter", ready for a launch email.
  • Remove the password when you're ready to launch, in the same Preferences screen.
