Impact

Fixed

• Fixed a regression introduced in version 9.0.0 issue where variant image might not be shown in selector.
• Fixed an issue on the new slideshow video feature where overlay was not properly being applied.

Added

• Support for native color swatches has been added. You can now directly specify color swatch for product options right from Shopify admin. For compatibility reason, the old system can still be used, but merchants are encouraged to migrate to the new system.

[BREAKING CHANGE 1] If you are using the "Product variations" feature (which allows to link different products on the same product page), it might stop showing variations on the new version, due to the renaming of some settings. To fix the issue, you will need to go back to the "Product variations" block and re-select the desired option style.

[BREAKING CHANGE 2] If you are using the feature to show variant image for color selectors, this will stop working after upgrading to this new version. Please follow the new instructions here: https://impact-theme.helpscoutdocs.com/article/555-variant-images-for-color-option

• Added support for the new "Empty values" setting in the Search & Discovery app. This new setting allows you to choose how filter values with no matching products are shown in your store.

[BREAKING CHANGE] As a consequence of this change, the Show empty filter values setting in the Collection template has been removed. Merchants who wish to control how empty filter values are treated must configure it in the app after upgrading their theme.

• Slideshow section now supports video, in addition to images. Some settings have been renamed to better convey the new capabilities.

• You can now upload a different mobile video for the "Video" section.

• The "Collapsible text" block on product section now also supports pulling content from a page. This can be useful if you have rich content (with images and tables) to show in a collapsible, and that the theme editor rich text is too limited.

Changed

• The video section will now use the new "Original aspect ratio" size by default, instead of the previous "16/9" ratio. This allows merchants to upload video formats that better suit the device, such as a 16/9 video on desktop and a portrait video on mobile. If you wish to still use a fixed height and have the theme crop the video, you will need to change the size option in your video sections.

Improved

• When using a Vimeo video for the "Media with text" section, video controls will now display if autoplay has been turned off.

Changed

• We changed the type of the free shipping threshold setting from a number to a text. For some reasons, Shopify does not currently allows
  translating number settings, which prevent to change the value based on a given market. However, due to this type change, if you are
  upgrading the theme, you might have to re-define the value again in the theme settings.

Fixed

• Fixed an issue in Firefox where the collection page filters would reload twice when filters are displayed in drawer mode.
