After I created seven navigation buttons, the content for two of the last navigation pages created are mixed up and I cannot separate them. The other five navigation pages are fine. Can anybody help me ?

EDIT: The link in your reply doesn't work. Can you please help with a direct link where you can help me please? Since updating, I've had an issue with the addtocart event firing for the Pinterest sales channel. I have my add to cart setting as drawer & Pinterest have said they think the issue is with an Ajax add to cart?? Can you help please? It looks like add to cart is a common issue.

Hey there, this definitely isn't something we want happening! Since it sounds like you've already contacted Pinterest's Support team, please go ahead and contact our own Support (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) so that we can take a closer look into this for you.

Desde su actualización al 11.0 por alguna extraña razón las ventas han caído de forma radical. Hay personas que reportan que no pueden buscar productos, otros que no pueden terminar la compra. Terrible actualización. No trabaja de forma correcta con Iphone (el buscador no funciona y no permite agregar carritos).

Reply from Shopify Sep 05, 2023

Hola, gracias por hacérnoslo saber. Comuníquese con nuestro soporte (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) para que podamos analizar más de cerca por qué sucede esto. A veces, la actualización de un tema puede hacer que algunas aplicaciones también funcionen incorrectamente, si está utilizando alguna actualmente.

Verson 11.0.0 the color setting part is not working. And the Shopify help center that you refer to doesn't help. So I contacted to the agent and gave my email address hope can resolve it. As can see from here a lot of people facing exactly same issues. https://community.shopify.com/c/shopify-design/version-11-0-0-dawn-theme/td-p/2177968 Hope they can see this problem and resolve it.

Release notes

Version 8.0.1 March 6, 2023

Dawn 8.0.1 introduces a bug fix for cart.

Fixes and improvements

  • We fixed a bug where the currency may not be applied correctly during checkout when using the cart drawer.

Version 8.0.0 February 9, 2023

Dawn 8.0.0 provides more customizability options to the header & footer, add a new multi-row section for product images and text, and improve the display of product images and logos. The platform has also centralized the logo settings, improved search, added social media logos and language and currency picker by default, and fixed several bugs with product pages and customer orders.

Added

  • Important: Product images on the Product Page, Featured Product Section, and Quick Buy Modal will now be adjusted by default to fit within the screen's height. You can still turn this off if you’d like your images to be bigger.
  • We built a new mechanism to add sections & apps to your site's header & footer area directly from the online store editor.
  • We added a "Multi-row" section that lets you create a repeatable pattern of images and text. It also connects to metaobjects in the admin for a supercharged workflow.
  • We added a new setting that will constrain the height of product images on the Product Page and Featured Product Section. You'll now have the option to display product images in their original aspect ratio or crop them to fill the allotted space.
  • The product page now displays quantity rules tied to a product variant (minimum, maximum, increments) when they apply. The product page also indicates if a buyer already has quantity for an item in their cart.
  • We added an option for buyers to Follow your store on the Shop App.
  • We added a new block to display icons with text to the product information section.
  • We added an option to disable zoom on product images.
  • We added an Inventory and SKU block to the product information section
  • We added a new "Brand Information" block to the footer that allows you to share a small blurb about your brand and display social links.
  • We added a "Medium" height option to the Image with Text section.
  • We added more width options and resized the default width of the product image on the Featured Product section.
  • We added an option to automatically reduce the size of your Logo with a Sticky header when you scroll down the page.
  • We added a checkbox to show policy links on your site's footer.

Changed

  • Important: We changed the default height of the Image Banner from “Adapt to image size” to “medium” to better display larger images on screens. This will result in a slight visual change for themes who previously had this setting enabled. If you would like to revert the change, select “Adapt to first image” option in the “Banner height” setting.
  • We centralized the logo settings from the Header & Password sections to the Global Settings.
  • We changed the default height of the Slideshow Section to "Medium" instead of "Adapt to Image".
  • We improved the search by displaying more results.
  • We now enable language and currency picker by default in the footer so it will automatically display if your shop has multiple currencies and/or languages.
  • We show social media logos by default so they are automatically displayed if populated in your settings.

Fixes and improvements

  • We now show which variants are sold out or unavailable with better visual cues.
  • We improved the Complementary Product Cards on the Product page by making the cards more compact.
  • We streamlined the appearance of the Thumbnails product images by making them all the same size.
  • We made some improvements to Search: We added a clear button to the search input, we sync the search terms between the main search page and search bar in the header, and we automatically scroll to the top of the page when searching from mobile.
  • We fixed a bug where bullet points were not aligning properly in some sections.
  • We fixed a bug with how colour gradients were displayed in the Header section.
  • We fixed a bug on the customer pages, so that order totals now display refunds.

Removed

  • We removed the “Use Original Aspect Ratio” setting in the collage section.

Version 7.0.1 September 29, 2022

Dawn 7.0.1 introduces several bug fixes.

Fixes and improvements

  • We fixed an issue causing mobile slider controls to display unnecessarily under some conditions.
  • We fixed an issue where hidden variant media were visible in product media modals.
  • We fixed a spacing issue with the “Middle center” desktop logo position setting.
  • We fixed an issue that could prevent the complementary products block from displaying product images.
  • We updated Shopify Help Center links for complementary products.
