How to Add an Animated In-Stock Indicator to Your Horizon Theme Product Page

When a customer lands on your product page, one of their immediate concerns is availability. "Can I get this now?"

Providing a clear, visible "In Stock" indicator is a simple yet powerful way to reassure customers, create a subtle sense of urgency, and reduce purchase anxiety. A static text field is okay, but an animated indicator draws the eye much more effectively.

In this tutorial based on the video below, we will show you how to add a professional, animated "Pulse Badge" to the product page of the Shopify Horizon theme. We'll be using the pre-built conversion blocks available in the Section Store app, making this a fast, no-code upgrade for your store.

Step-by-Step Guide

Follow these simple steps to add the pulse badge to your Horizon theme:

1. Prerequisite: Ensure you have installed the Section Store app on your Shopify store and have an active conversion blocks subscription within the app.
2. Open Theme Editor: Navigate to your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Themes, and click "Customize" on your Horizon theme.
3. Navigate to Product Page: Use the dropdown selector at the very top of the editor to select Products > Default product.
4. Add the Block: On the left-hand sidebar, look for the "Product information" section. Click + Add block.
5. Select Pulse Badge: In the search bar, type "pulse". Look for the "Pulse Badge" block provided by Section Store and click to add it.
6. Position the Block: Drag the new Pulse Badge block up so it sits right where you want it—typically just below the price is a great spot for visibility.
7. Customize: Click on the block to open its settings on the right. As seen in the video, you can easily change the text to something like "In stock, ready to ship," and adjust the icon and text color to a nice green to signify availability.
8. Save: Click save in the top right corner, and your new animated indicator is live!

That's it! You've successfully added a professional conversion element to your Horizon theme in just a few minutes.
