Help, I can't change the theme text. How do I do that?
That's all done through the language editor. To access that:
- Click "Themes" from the admin sidebar
- Then click the "..." icon next to your theme and choose "Edit Language" from the dropdown
- Now click your active language
- You can click a tab heading and edit the text within that section. Remember to click save.
See Shopify docs for more details about the language editor.
How can I get the latest version of the theme?
You can always grab the latest version as a free upgrade. You will need to redo your theme settings and app installs (depends on the individual app). More details

How do I amend the links in the top navigation bar?
Does the top navigation bar support dropdown menus?
Yes, the main menu supports one sub menu under each main link. Enabling dropdowns can be done is a few simple steps.
Before you begin, make sure you've added a few products and organised them into collections. Then visit the theme settings, expand the section named "Navigation" and look for the "Main menu" heading. Select the linklist to use for the menu. This guide assumes that you've selected the linklist named "Main menu".
Next, from the Shopify sidebar, click the "Navigation" link. You'll see all the linklists in your store. A linklist is just a wrapper for a bunch of links. To add a dropdown to a menu item you just need to create a linklist with the same name. For example, lets say you have a link named "Toys" in your main menu. Click the "add link list" link and create a linklist named "Toys". Add a few links to the new linklist and you'll have a fully working dropdown. Repeat the process for any other top-level links that need a dropdown.
