# Add the Social proof block to your product page

> Show small round profile photos next to a line of text. Pick your own photos and write a true line.

The **Social proof** block shows small round photos next to a line of text, like "Davie ✓, Mark ✓ and 1500+ others love our products!". You pick the photos and type the text. The block doesn't count real customers.

## Before you start

You need Section Store Plus or its free trial.

## Add the block

1. In Shopify admin, open **Apps** → **Section Store** → **Conversion Blocks**.
2. On the **Social proof** card, click **Edit In Theme**.
3. Pick your theme. Your live theme has a green dot.
4. The theme editor opens on your product template with the block added.
5. Drag the block where you want it.

## Set it up

1. Under **Thumbnails**, pick images for **Profile #1**, **Profile #2** and **Profile #3**.
2. Keep **Use carousel** on to rotate five photos, and pick **Profile #4** and **Profile #5** too. Turn it off to show three fixed photos.
3. Under **Text**, replace the sample line.
4. Type ✓ anywhere in the text. It turns into a checkmark.
5. Click **Save**.

Fill every profile. An empty profile shows a sample portrait of someone who isn't your customer, and it changes on each page load.

## Other settings

- **Thumbnails:** **Size**.
- **Text:** **Size** and **Text** color.
- **Checkmark:** **Size** and **Color**.
- **Appearance:** **Border**, **Thickness**, **Roundness** and **Background**.
- **Padding:** **Vertical** and **Horizontal**.
- **Extras:** **Clip to top of wrapper** and **Custom CSS**.

## Use it as a header on the Wrapper

**Clip to top of wrapper** pins the block to the top of the **Wrapper** box.

1. Add the **Wrapper** block.
2. Drag **Social proof** to be the first item in the wrapped area.
3. Turn on **Clip to top of wrapper**.
4. Click **Save**.

## If it doesn't work

- **The faces change on each load:** a profile is empty. Pick an image for each one.
- **It shows 1500+ others:** that's sample text. Replace it with your own.
- **It doesn't show live visitors or recent purchases:** the block has no live counts and no purchase popup. It shows what you type.
