FAQ

Shopify's font library includes a selection of fonts from Google and Monotype Fonts. You can browse the list of available fonts here

Luxe allows you to specify up to three different fonts; a heading font, body font and navigation font.

Yes. If you would like to use a font that is not included in Shopify's library, you can implement a custom font solution such as Adobe Typekit, or you can upload your own font files. Note: Linking an external library such as Typekit would require access to the theme source files, which is not possible during the theme trial period.

Please note: Using custom fonts requires basic knowledge of CSS coding.

Once you have created a menu, to customize your menu design, go to Themes > Customize, and select the Header section. Luxe includes various layout and style settings for mobile and desktop.

Yes, Luxe allows you to show images within the menu drawer and/or the desktop dropdown.

On the menu drawer, you can turn on/off collection images. When turned on, Luxe shows the feature image of each collection alongside the menu link. This is a great way to make your menu more visual.

In addition, you can insert an image 'block' on any dropdown menu item or within the drawer. Each dropdown menu can include up to 2 images, and each image can include a heading and/or link, with various style options to choose from.

Product filters are managed using the Shopify Search & Discovery app. To further information and instructions please visit the Shopify manual:

Yes, Luxe includes an option to add sub navigation menus to any collection page, along with a choice of alignment and style for the menu.

We recognise that video is highly effective in e-commerce. Therefore, Luxe supports video across many sections, including many places where other Shopify themes don't, such as Collection Cards.

You can insert video in the following Luxe sections:

Luxe theme supports Shopify's Image Focal Point feature. This feature allows you to set a focal point on any image, and this will influence the crop to ensure the focal point remains in view.

You can add a focal point to an image from your Files section, and from your theme editor. If you add a focal point on an image, and then use the image in multiple places, then they all use the same focal point.

You can only add a focal point to theme images. You can't add a focal point to product, blog or collection images.

In addition to the focal point feature, Luxe also provides additional control - key image sections on Luxe have an image aspect ratio setting allowing you to choose between portrait 4:5, portrait 4:6, square or landscape.

We recommend uploading your images at 72dpi at a size of at least 2800 pixels wide. If using jpg format, save at between 90-100% quality. This will ensure they render at high quality on most modern devices and screens.

Luxe automatically optimizes (scales down) product images for smaller screens, to ensure fast loading.

2. Select the Product page template
3. Click into the Variant picker block
4. Click "Enable color swatches"
5. Input your colors in the text box provided.
