The Highlights banner section introduces your customers to offered services, hours of operation, and other brief details about your store. This section is fixed to the second home page position (or first if Slideshow disabled) for versions before 5.8.0. For recent versions (v5.8.0+), this is a dynamic section.
Use the theme editor to customize the section's appearance and add the content blocks.

Enable Show section spacing to increase the separation between this section and the others.
Select either Left or Center from the Icon layout dropdown.
Select a layout for mobile devices
If you're using the latest version of Empire, use the Layout dropdown under MOBILE to control how the blocks are organized for smaller, mobile devices.
The options are:

Slideshow reflects the desktop layout and customers can view the overflow content by swiping sideways.
Grid stacks the blocks to fit within the narrow width of the mobile device.
