# Adding your first section

Design Packs are a huge collection of sections that can be added and customized right into your existing theme.  Our sections work with ANY Shopify theme (found one that doesn't? Let us know at <support@design-packs.com> and we'll fix it for you)

### Install a section&#x20;

Once you’ve picked a section to add, choose which theme you want it in. You can install it on your **current published theme** or on any **unpublished draft theme** if you’d like to test it out first. &#x20;

NOTE: You won't be able to add any sections to trial themes until you have paid for the theme.

### Add Section to page template

Now you can add the Design Pack section directly from the **Customize** area of your theme. It will appear just like any other section in your theme.

* If you are using an **Online Store 2.0 theme**, you can place the section on **any page**.
* If you are using an **older theme (pre-2020)**, the section can be added to the **homepage only**.

### Customize section with settings

Each Design Pack section includes a wide range of customization options and works just like the sections already in your theme.

All sections come with a standard set of settings such as **image sizing**, **mobile image options**, **font selections**, **section width controls**, and **flexible content blocks**. These options make it easy to adapt each section so it fits seamlessly with your existing theme and branding.

Please note that the **free sections include limited settings**. We recommend trying the **risk-free 14-day trial** to unlock the full collection of Design Packs and explore all available blocks and settings.

That’s it! You can now add Design Pack sections to any page on your store.
