How to Add a Promo Banner in Shopify Horizon Theme
Horizon supports promo banners as a standalone section, and also as a block that sits inside your navigation menu dropdown — two different placements for the same kind of message.
Steps
- In your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Themes and click Customize on Horizon.
- For a standalone banner: click Add section, choose Promo banner (or similar naming), then set its image, text, and link.
- For an in-menu promo: select the Header section, find the menu block for the dropdown you want, and add a promo block inside it — this is only possible because of Horizon's nested block support.
- Click Save.
In-menu promos are a good spot for a "new arrivals" or seasonal callout, since they show up exactly where shoppers are already browsing categories.
