Add the Social proof block to your product page

Show small round profile photos next to a line of text. Pick your own photos and write a true line.

Updated November 4, 2026

The Social proof block shows small round photos next to a line of text, like "Davie ✓, Mark ✓ and 1500+ others love our products!". You pick the photos and type the text. The block doesn't count real customers.

Before you start

You need Section Store Plus or its free trial.

  2. On the Social proof card, click Edit In Theme.
  3. Pick your theme. Your live theme has a green dot.
  4. The theme editor opens on your product template with the block added.
  5. Drag the block where you want it.

The Social proof block in the theme editor's Apps tab, under Section Store.

Set it up

  1. Under Thumbnails, pick images for Profile #1, Profile #2 and Profile #3.
  2. Keep Use carousel on to rotate five photos, and pick Profile #4 and Profile #5 too. Turn it off to show three fixed photos.
  3. Under Text, replace the sample line.
  4. Type ✓ anywhere in the text. It turns into a checkmark.

Fill every profile. An empty profile shows a sample portrait of someone who isn't your customer, and it changes on each page load.

If it doesn't work

  • It shows 1500+ others: that's sample text. Replace it with your own.
  • It doesn't show live visitors or recent purchases: the block has no live counts and no purchase popup. It shows what you type.
