Apps
Add app blocks and app embeds to Maison.
On this page
Maison is an Online Store 2.0 theme: compatible apps are added from the theme editor, without editing code.
App blocks
You add an app block like any other block, with Add block, in sections that accept them:
| Section | Example uses |
|---|---|
| Product page | Product reviews, size charts, trust badges, back-in-stock alerts |
| Featured product | Product reviews |
| Page | Forms, store locators |
| Custom section | Instagram gallery, reviews widget |
| Footer | Loyalty program, badges |
To place an app block somewhere else on a page, add a Custom section where you want it and put the block in it.
App embeds
App embeds add floating or invisible elements: live chat, cookie banners, tracking pixels. Turn them on in the theme editor, in the App embeds menu (icon in the sidebar).
Apps that ask you to edit code
Some older apps ask you to paste code into the theme. Choose an Online Store 2.0 compatible app instead. If you have no other option, use the Custom Liquid section or block rather than editing the theme files, and read Editing code.

An app doesn't display correctly
Theme support checks that the problem isn't coming from Maison, but can't fix how a third-party app works. Contact the app developer first: they know their code and can adapt it to the theme. See our support policy.
