In this article, you will learn about the Saved Section and how to use it in PageFly pages and Shopify theme editors.

1. What is ‘Saved Section’
PageFly Saved Section feature is created to save you hours of design work. It lets you save an existing section or create a new one and re-use it on all of your PageFly or Shopify pages.
Once you published the section, you can use it in multiple pages to have the same content in each page. After adding the Saved section in your PageFly’s pages, this section will be automatically synced with the original one in Section list.
When you edit the original content or layout/styling, all synced sections in all pages will be changed.
You can check more details in the video tutorial below.

In the section editor page, you can find the Premade section and change the section title in the More Actions button on the top right.
Note that you can’t edit the saved section on the editor page. To edit them, please go to the Section list to adjust.
If you want to use the saved section only for a specific page, you will need to unsync it from the original one. Once unsynced, all changes made in the original section will not affect the section and the section also can’t sync to the original one anymore.
