Shopify’s New Copy + Paste Sections Feature: A Game-Changer for Store Owners

Great news for Shopify users—Shopify has released a long-awaited feature that will dramatically streamline your store-building process. You can now copy and paste sections across any page on your website. 🎉

 

Why This Shopify Update Is a Big Deal

Before this update, duplicating sections (like testimonials, announcements, or featured products) across pages meant rebuilding them from scratch. With this new tool, you can:

  • Copy a section from one page
  • Paste it instantly onto another
  • Save time, keep your design consistent, and test layouts easily

This update is especially helpful for ecommerce store owners, Shopify developers, and designers who need to create polished, on-brand pages—fast.

 

How to Copy + Paste Sections in Shopify

1. Open the Shopify theme editor

2. Right-click on any section

3. Click Copy

4. Navigate to where you'd like the section placed (on the same or another page)

5. Right-click and click Paste after

That's it—simple and efficient!

Benefits of the Copy + Paste Feature

  • Speeds up your design workflow
  • Eliminates repetitive manual edits
  • Improves consistency across pages
  • Encourages layout testing and optimization

Whether you're updating your homepage, creating new landing pages, or duplicating product blocks, this small-but-mighty update makes a big difference.

 

Final Thoughts

This Shopify update is a perfect example of how platform improvements can lead to better store performance and a smoother creative process. If you're a Shopify user, go try it out—and watch your build time shrink.


 

FAQs

Can you copy and paste sections between different pages in Shopify?

Yes! With Shopify’s new update, you can copy a section on one page and paste it onto another page within the same theme. This makes duplicating layouts faster and easier than ever.

Does this feature work with all Shopify themes?

Most Online Store 2.0-compatible themes support the Copy + Paste feature. If you're using an older or custom theme, you may need to update your theme or check for compatibility.

Can I copy multiple sections at once in Shopify?

Currently, you can only copy and paste one section at a time. If you want to duplicate a group of sections, you'll need to copy and paste each one individually.

Will my section settings (text, images, layout) stay the same when I paste?

Yes! When you paste a section, all settings—including images, text, colors, and spacing—are preserved, saving you time and keeping your design consistent.
