Please note that the availability and customisation options of the product carousel section may vary depending on your Shopify theme. If you don’t see a built-in product carousel section, you can explore Shopify’s theme store or consider using a third-party app or plugin to add a product carousel functionality to your store.
Remember to regularly review and update your product carousel to showcase new or featured products and keep your storefront fresh and engaging for your customers.
