# Featured collection

Displaying featured collections as a seperate section, focuses a customer’s attention to a specific group of products within a chosen collection, encouraging more of an in-depth review of a specific range of products.\
\
If you are running a seasonal promotion, or need to raise awareness for any other reason for a specific group of products, this section can be very beneficial.

### Getting Started

* Go to `Online store` → `Theme` → `Customise`
* By default, you will see you predefined list of sections
* To add the `Featured collection` section, scroll to the bottom of the panel and `Add section`
* Select `Featured collection` → `save`

Now we can make adjustments to the following settings;

* Heading - this is optional and removed if the field is blank. You can change this text to something more meaninful i.e 'Best sellers' or 'Just arrived'
* Pick a collection - this setting connects this section to products from a chosen collection and updates each product card dynamically
* Products to show - You can control how many products to show in this section. By default this is set to 3, but can be increased to 12. If a collection has more than 3 products, you will see navigation controls that can be used to preview the next or previous product
* Section layout - Here you can switch the sections width between **Full width** (edge-to-edge) or **Content width** (with whitespace) depednign on your website style
* Product card - Change the aspect ratio of images to be either square or adapt to image (this basically means the image will inherit the orginal aspect ratio of the uploaded image)
* Show product rating - If you use a reviews app, you can show the ratings from customers of a particular product by enabling this setting.

Thats it, save your changes and your done!
