predictive search function error. For example: My product is named "d-18", when searching, customers have to type the keyword "d-18" or "d 18" to display the product. If the customer types "d18" the product will not be displayed. My website has a lot of products that in the product name contain the character "-", so the Customize synonyms feature cannot be used.

I'm not sure why they are allowed to be listing as an expert on behalf of Shopify. It has made me very reluctant to try any other companies on this platform. The errors and constant need for corrections was very frustrating. There was little to no proof reading nor corrections. Stay clear of this company.

Hello, Shopify Experts are not developers hired by Shopify, but rather individuals or companies that have deep knowledge of the platform. Please contact our Support (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) if you are having issues with the Expert Marketplace so that we can take a closer look.

It took out my custom code for personalization box for customer notes on items. Also I deleted Venmo as a payment option yet this new theme still shows it as an acceptable payment even though it is not available in the payment options selections????

Reply from Shopify about 8 hours ago

Hi! If you've updated your theme and app elements did not carry over, contact the app developer to add them back in. For Venmo, if you accept PayPal as a payment option, Venmo will also show for customers within the United States who have this payment provider active on their browser or device only. This is because Venmo is a service of PayPal.

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.
