A Collection List section helps your visitors quickly explore your product categories right from the homepage — improving navigation, engagement, and conversions. In Shopify themes, this section is often named collection-list.
When configured properly, it can display beautiful category images with titles such as “Men’s Fashion”, “Accessories”, “New Arrivals”, helping customers jump directly into what they’re interested in.
Add “Collection List” Section
- Go to Online Store → Themes → Customize.
- From the Homepage, click “Add section” → “Collection list” (some themes may label it “Categories” or “Shop by collection”).
- Click “Select collection” for each block to choose which categories to display.
- Upload an image for each collection (Shopify uses the collection image by default).
- Optionally, set the grid layout — 2, 3, or 4 per row depending on your design.
- Click Save and preview.
Adding a Collection List section helps users explore your store easily, reduces bounce rate, and improves SEO by linking deeper into your store’s structure.
Whether you sell clothing, accessories, or digital goods — a well-structured “Shop by Category” section on the homepage builds clarity and drives sales.
