March 2023 Update: This theme's search functionality is STILL broken: Searches that involve more than two words do not work when using the Search and Discovery app (made by Shopify...not third party). Pixel Union has known about this for months, yet has done absolutely nothing. Valid search results are not a "Feature Request."
Hi Pine Street Clinic team! The compatibility issue between the third party Search & Discovery app and your Empire theme will be resolved in the next theme release, planned for early April! We appreciate your patience as we work to improve the Empire theme's compatibility with this third party app! All the best, Pixel Union
Probably the best, cleanest, fastest theme on the market today for medium and larger stores - jam packed full of features that will make you look good and rise above the competition, backed by a genuinely helpful and responsive support team - we could not recommend this enough, install today, you will not regret it!
I had an issue with scrolling on mobile phone, and the team has fixed it quickly. Great service.
very good customer service. Shandy, Leo, and their development team, Thanks
