Background

Background style

Chooses whether the stripe uses a single color or a gradient. Options: Solid or Gradient. Default: Gradient.

Usage

  • Use Gradient for a vibrant marquee like the storefront preview.
  • Use Solid for a flat brand color bar.

Solid background

Fill color when Background style is Solid. Default color: #CB3A3A.

Usage

  • Shown when Solid is selected; ignored when Gradient is active.
  • Pair with Text color for readable contrast.

Gradient background

Gradient fill when Background style is Gradient. Choose a gradient preset in the picker. Default: linear gradient from #CB3A3A to #F61CB1.

Usage

  • Pick a preset that matches campaign or brand colors.
  • Shown when Gradient is selected; solid color is not used in that mode.

Text color

Color for each text item label in the marquee. Default color: #FFFFFF.

Usage

  • Use light text on dark or vivid backgrounds, and dark text on pale solids.
  • Icons are uploaded as images and are not recolored by this setting.

Text item

Add Text item

Each block is one icon-and-label pair in the scrolling strip. You can add up to 15 text items and reorder them in the section sidebar.

Usage

  • Add enough items to fill the marquee; duplicates loop for a seamless scroll.
  • Remove blocks you do not need; empty text still takes a slot if the block remains.

Icon image

Small image shown before the label (for example a line icon in a circle). Recommended size: 40 px; use 80 px for retina.

Usage

  • Use simple monochrome artwork that reads on your background color.
  • Leave blank to show text only for that item.

Icon alt text

Describes the icon when it adds meaning for accessibility.

Usage

  • Add a short label if the icon is not purely decorative.
  • Leave blank for decorative icons when the adjacent text already explains the item.

Text

Label shown beside the icon (for example Velvet Mist). Default on new blocks: Velvet mist.

Usage

  • Keep phrases short so they fit in the moving stripe.
  • Leave blank to hide the label while keeping the icon, if needed.

Section spacing

Section spacing

Adds empty space above and below this section on desktop and mobile.

Usage

  • Top padding (desktop) — Default: 40 px · 0–100 px
  • Bottom padding (desktop) — Default: 40 px · 0–100 px
  • Top padding (mobile) — Default: 40 px · 0–100 px
  • Bottom padding (mobile) — Default: 40 px · 0–100 px
