# Split card

This is one of the most flexible sections in the theme, allowing you to put two types of section blocks side by side in order to create a split card effect.

It's very similar to [split banner](/sections/split-banner.md), except it can only be **padded** or **page width**, never full bleed. This enables you to create some interesting looks, especially if you have [rounded card borders](/theme-settings/appearance.md#card-border-radius).

If so, you can use the **border radius** setting to achieve the following looks:

<table><thead><tr><th>Look 1: Border radius on the section (default)</th><th>Look 2: Border radius on the blocks</th><th data-hidden></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><img src="https://3146423938-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FZQuVfmt0J7tzTvfBqG6C%2Fuploads%2FdDfqLLVUSCfA5NjtGN7j%2FPrimavera%20Precision%20%C2%B7%20Customize%20primavera-1-0-0%20%C2%B7%20Shopify%202025-04-01%20at%2010.24.56%20pm.jpg?alt=media&amp;token=9ce4dcca-5d64-4db4-b07d-2f5848127d6b" alt="" data-size="original"></td><td><img src="https://3146423938-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FZQuVfmt0J7tzTvfBqG6C%2Fuploads%2FolUw6UbMfSs12kKWW5NA%2FPrimavera%20Precision%20%C2%B7%20Customize%20primavera-1-0-0%20%C2%B7%20Shopify%202025-04-01%20at%2010.23.23%20pm.jpg?alt=media&amp;token=6a5d6858-21e2-43bb-9f5c-54d25826815b" alt="" data-size="original"></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Adds the border radius to the entire card, creating a split card look</td><td>Adds the border to blocks instead, allowing you to highlight one block in particular (keep the other block the same color as the background)</td><td></td></tr></tbody></table>

### Section settings

* **Container type**: Choose between **padded** or **page width**
* **Border radius:** Create between **section** or **blocks** to create looks 1 or 2 (see above)
* **Colors:** See [common settings](/common-settings.md)
* **Padding**: See [common settings](/common-settings.md)
* **Borders**:&#x20;
  * **Top/bottom border**
  * **Show split card borders**: Enable a border around the section  <mark style="background-color:green;">Available in version 1.1.0 and later</mark>

### Blocks

Mix and match two of the following blocks:

<table data-card-size="large" data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th><th></th><th data-hidden data-card-cover data-type="files"></th><th data-hidden data-card-target

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.ultramarinastudios.com/sections/split-card.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
