My Store Sep 09, 2023

I love the theme, but when i add a product in my list to the store, the description doesnt update to the set one. Also if i try copy-paste the description to the site it cant be managed as to headers, paragrafs and sections etc. Is this something i can fix or is it just how it is?

Hello, it sounds like you are trying to have a different template set up for different products so individual information displays on each one. You can achieve the same idea of this by using metafields, here is a help doc explaining how to use this (https://bit.ly/3nR3Bml). If this isn't what you are having troubles with, please contact our Support (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) so we can get context!

The Slideshow Section has two big issues. When I change the opacity of the image overlay, the opacity of the actual image (main image) changes, instead of the overlay with the information the button. This is backwards. The other issue is that the overlay over the image on the Slide Show Section, is huge and there's no way to change it. How do I change the size of this?

Reply from Shopify Sep 05, 2023

Hey there, the part of the slideshow that contains wording and buttons is called the Container, while the Image Overlay points to the opacity of the overlay on the image itself - though we understand how this can easily be mixed up. As for the size of the container, please reach out to our Support (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) to see if you are eligible to use Design Time to have this adjusted.

I'm confused, where is the mega menu? I'm not seeing any menus

Reply from Shopify Aug 08, 2023

Hi, thanks for your question! You'll find the settings for the main menu in the Origin theme within the header section - specifically, 'menu' and 'desktop menu type' settings. Here, you can add and configure your main menu. If you're having difficulty finding these options, please reach out to our support team (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) and we'd be happy to take a look with you.

so far good, I found this theme really useful for my single product store. And I will need to dig more to comment on performance and other aspects of this store. I have few questions to the maintainers, first is that how would I remove or hide search icon on the header? secondly I would like to know if this theme support customer accounts ? However I see testimonials section.

Hello, we are glad that you're liking Origin so far! You can reach out to our Support here (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) to see if you're eligible to use Design Time in order to hide the search icon.

Release notes

Version 8.0.1 March 6, 2023

Origin 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

Origin 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. The version number has been synced with other Shopify themes.

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 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 1.0.1 November 17, 2022

Origin 1.0.1 introduced a default setting change where we removed placeholder text for social media links.

Removed

  • Removed placeholder text for social media links.
