Is it possible to have multiple product colors without showing the images of these colours already? When I have for instance the blue tshirt selected, all images of the green tshirt are also shown. This looks really unproffesional

Hi, thanks for your question! You can use the setting "Hide other variants’ media after selecting a variant" within Sense's theme editor for this. If this doesn't make your variant media show how you need it to, please reach out to our Support (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) so that we can help you get this set up the way you need it to!

An issue we come across: I use the banner image for my hero image in my home page. I cannot adjust the size for the mobile view and my performance in the Core Web Vitals suffers because my image is too large. How can I adjust the image size for mobile?

Hey there, H1 tags are added to these pages when you add sections and fill in the "heading" rich text box. For example, on the homepage having a Slideshow section there is the option to enter a Heading for this section on each slide. After this has been added, the homepage will recognize this as the H1 tag.

After updating the theme, it is loading slowly and there are different bugs.

Reply from Shopify Apr 10, 2023

Hey there, glad you are enjoying Sense. To update your theme you can follow the instructions on this help doc here (https://bit.ly/3OBtMIT). Please be aware that if you or an app have made any code changes to your theme, they will not be included in the updated version. If you want to keep any code changes, you will need to manually copy them over.

So many issues with colours. The headline is always glitched with the colour theme and somehow can't match at will.

Reply from Shopify May 24, 2024

Hello, make sure that you are following instructions from this Help Doc here (https://bit.ly/3NL86J9) about how to setup your color schemes, as it's quite different compared to how our vintage themes worked. If you're still experiencing issues with your colors, please reach out to our Support (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) so we can look into this further for you.
