Story is about helping merchants quickly and easily build a store front with design elements to make even the simplest photography standout. Story includes design features in homepage sections and beautiful page templates. 

## Sections with design

![Testimonials ](/files/-MW0V4Ksfs-otz3s3Ehi)

Reviews allow prospective customers to see the best of a brand from a third party perspective. Sharing the praise of others is a simple and powerful way to strengthen the brand.

![Timeline](/files/-MW0VERXyyHj3iP6ejLQ)

Story uses a timeline format to tell the brand story. Each event is a block with a date, title, text and an optional small format photo. Discover visual timeline storytelling with an easy to use home page section or page template

![Team](/files/-MW0VUmJlYWyA2V6aWWw)

Showcase the team behind your story. Story uses headshots to help connect your brand with the people behind it. Headshots and names are complimented by optional bios and social links.

## Powerful pages

Sometimes the homepage isn't the best place to tell the brand story. The Story theme uses alternate templates, sections, and a secondary navigation option to allow merchants to tell a detailed brand story off the home page.

Adding a sub-navigation option to the page template is a simple but effective way to empower merchants to tell their story off the homepage.

![Timeline and Team](/files/-MW0Vv_IOrG37CzQ6Ii3)

The timeline and team sections are also included as beautiful alternate templates -- allowing merchants to build purpose-specific pages that are common to most e-commerce businesses with a strong and admirable story.

![Lookbook](/files/-MW0WJxRCndEZlcWnk1h)

Story includes a section-based page template with blocks for typography, color, products, collages, imagery and text that can be configured like a Lookbook -- telling the story of a product by showing it in use and tastefully linking to the product page.

![Dedicated support and contact page](/files/-MW0WdF69SAs4fsB-vBL)

Admirable brands speak directly their customers and address their concerns. Story includes a page template with sections for the contact form, FAQ, and policies -- like warrantee and returns. The contact form is a section where each field is a configurable block. The accordion FAQ is a section with blocks for each title and text block. The final piece is a dedicated section for summarizing warrantee and return policies -- linking to the full standard terms pages in all its legal glory. Each policy block is an icon, a title and a block of summary text and a link to the legal document.
