I love the overall simplistic style and setup of the theme but have one issue, I can't get any translator app to work with the checkout? The language selector appears everywhere else but it doesn't work on the checkout for some reason smh. If it wasn't for that issue I'd be completely happy with this theme. It's still a good theme but if you sell internationally I wouldn't recommend it tbh

Hi, this is definitely an issue that our developers are aware of. There have been updates to our checkout, so you may need to edit any translations in any apps or settings you have for your theme - this usually resolves any issues. There will not be a language selector within the checkout page but it should utilize the language chosen while navigating the website within the checkout.

Is there a way to keep my featured image for my product instead of loading the first variant image?

Reply from Shopify Nov 17, 2023

Hey there! This is actually a question that we get frequently and it might be a customization that you'd be able to utilize your Design Time (https://bit.ly/3F5vga5) for. Please contact our Support (https://bit.ly/3nR3Bml) so we can see if your theme is eligible for this change.

Great theme, but can't figure out how to: 1) Create an image slider on the product page 2) Add supplementary images on the product page similar to the sample Origin store

Reply from Shopify Nov 07, 2023

Hello, thanks for the feedback! The extra images shown in the Origin homepage are just two banners with all text removed, the first with just one image and the second with two images. For an image slider, if it's not something possible with Sections and Blocks (https://bit.ly/3suYMRr) we'll need more context on this! Please contact Support here (https://bit.ly/3nR3Bml) so we can help you further.

The theme design is great and I love how it is tailored to a one-product business. The problem has been there is clearly a bug which means colour schema gets messed up when importing over from a previous template. I reached out to support which told me the fix this with the development team but over a month still nothing fixed. "To preview your changes, color schemes must be defined in settings."

Reply from Shopify Nov 07, 2023

Hi! We are glad to hear that you are enjoying the theme and it's one product focus, but it definitely sounds like you're running into a known issue that we have a solution for! Please reach out to our Support again here (https://bit.ly/3nR3Bml) so that Theme Support can help resolve the error you're seeing within your theme editor.

Version 12.0.0 October 31, 2023

Origin 12.0.0 introduces additional customization options by adding color scheme pickers to new areas, and new ways to visually display product filters. It also introduces some performance improvements related to image loading.

Added

  • Important: If you use a gradient as a main background, the look of your cart drawer and product modal (quick add) will be affected.
  • You can now select a color scheme for the Image with text section, Collection template (Product grid section), Product information section, Cart drawer, and Cart page.

Changed

  • If you are using the Search & Discovery app, you can now change the logical operator for facet filter values between OR and AND.
  • If you are using the Search & Discovery app, you can now choose to apply a swatch visual style for certain filter types (references to metaobjects).

Fixes and improvements

  • We fixed an issue with facet filters that affected currencies that use comma separators.
  • We fixed a formatting issue with metadata that is used for SEO purposes.
  • We fixed a visual bug that was affecting the collage section.
  • We fixed an issue with the “compare at” price to ensure more predictable behavior.
  • We’ve improved the experience of adding items to cart on slower connections.
  • We fixed a styling issue affecting collections in empty cart drawers.
  • We fixed an issue in the Slideshow section where the next slide flashes before coming into view.
  • We’ve improved various visual elements on the Quick order list including font consistency, alignment, and spacing.
  • We fixed an issue affecting Quick order list on iOS, removing the need to double tap the info icon to open it.

Removed

  • Removed image tag attribute that indicated which images to load first. We will now allow the platform to determine this, which will improve performance.

Version 11.0.0 July 26, 2023

Origin 11.0.0 introduces new customization options to the announcement bar, new animations and hover effects, and a Quick order list section to product pages.

Added

  • You can now display social media icons in the Announcement bar.
  • You can now add the country/region selector and the language selector to the Announcement bar.
  • You can now set a different color scheme for your navigation menu than for your Header.
  • We added a new “Zoom in on scroll” animation option to the Image with text and Image banner sections.
  • We added a new “Vertical lift” hover effect option to cards and buttons.
  • You can now apply the outline button style to the button on Image with text.
  • You can now adjust the bottom padding on the Subtotal section in the cart.
  • We introduced a new Quick order list section to the product template. This allows you to optimize your product pages for bulk buying.
  • Customers who qualify for volume pricing will now see the different price breaks on your product pages.

Changed

  • We reduced the height of the Announcement bar section.
  • You can now choose to auto rotate the Announcement bar slides every 3 seconds. The minimum was previously 5 seconds.
  • Your mobile menu drawer will now appear full-width.
  • The Featured collection section will now display placeholder product images until a collection is selected.

Fixes and improvements

  • We fixed a bug where text links were not styled properly in the heading of the Related products section.
  • We made light stylistic improvements to link styles, alignment and spacing for both the dropdown and mega menu types in the Header.
  • We fixed a bug where the Footer would display extra white space when the “Show email signup” setting was left unchecked.

Version 10.0.0 June 7, 2023

Origin 10.0.0 introduces new color schemes, animation options across templates and sections, performance improvements for large images, an improved announcement bar, and the ability to change the shape of product cards images.

Added

  • Important: Fade in animations will now be enabled by default on your theme. If you’d like to disable them, navigate to your theme settings → animations → uncheck “Reveal sections on scroll”.
  • Important: We’ve introduced a new visual way of setting your theme's colors. In your theme settings, you can now configure 5+ color schemes and apply them across sections in your themes. The default colors are created based on your theme’s current color settings, but we recommend reviewing them before publishing.
  • We’ve added new animations to your theme settings where you can have sections fade in or slide in when the user scrolls.

  • We introduced new placeholder images across all theme sections.

Fixes and improvements

  • We fixed some spacing issues in the mobile drawer.
  • We improved the performance of the Collage section images.
  • We fixed some accessibility issues with the language and currency picker in the mobile drawer.
