Header Style Display Restriction
The theme provides several predefined header styles (templates). However, to ensure correct design rendering and prevent layout conflicts, you must only activate (make visible) one header type at any given time.
Principle: Although all header styles may be present in the theme's backend configuration (as demonstrated, for example, on Demo 1 where multiple types are technically installed but only one is visible), you must ensure that only one chosen template is active and not hidden.
Technical Consequence: If you activate or enable two or more different header styles simultaneously, they will attempt to render on top of each other, resulting in broken headers and significant layout errors at the top of your site.
Recommendation: Select your preferred header template and immediately hide or disable all other irrelevant options within your theme settings.
Header Overview
The Header is the top section of your online store — the first thing customers see when they visit your site. It typically includes your logo, navigation menu, and important store information or promotions.
In this theme, the Header is highly customizable and organized into the following areas:
Header Sections – Add content blocks like announcements, messages, or promotional visuals.
Header Design – Choose from different layout styles (Classic, Closed, Titles, or Vertical) and adjust their specific features.
Header Extensions – Add extra functionality or design enhancements beyond the basic setup.
Header Sections
These components let you display extra information or promotions above or within your header.
Announcement Bar – A simple horizontal bar for important store updates, discounts, or shipping information. You can customize text, background color, and link actions.
Blurbs – Short snippets or icons with brief text, perfect for highlighting store features like Free Shipping, 24/7 Support, or Eco-Friendly Products.
Promo Message – A dedicated space to showcase promotions, offers, or limited-time deals.
Scrolling Text and Images – Adds a dynamic, moving banner that can scroll text or images to grab customer attention and highlight new arrivals or events.
Header Design
You can select from four main menu styles, each offering its own sub-options for customization.
Classic Menu
A traditional horizontal menu layout suitable for most store types. Includes options for:
Badges – Small labels (e.g., “New”, “Sale”, “Hot”) that can be added to menu items.
Mega Menu – A large dropdown with multiple columns, images, and links — ideal for stores with many categories.
Top Bar – A thin bar above the main header for contact info, login links, or language/currency selectors.
Closed Menu
A compact menu layout where navigation opens via a toggle or icon (often used for minimal designs). Includes options for:
Badges – Highlight products or categories within the menu.
Contact Information – Display phone number, email, or store address directly in the header.
Menu Images – Add small images next to menu links (great for visual navigation).
Top Bar – Optional area for extra links, language switchers, or announcements.
Titles Menu
A clean, text-based layout focusing on titles or labels instead of large navigation areas. Includes options for:
Contact Information – Display customer service or business details.
Main Menu Icons – Add icons next to your main menu links for visual emphasis.
Mega Menu – Enable an expanded dropdown with images and category links.
Top Bar – Optional top line for extra information or links.
Vertical Menu
A side-positioned navigation layout ideal for stores that want a unique or content-heavy header. Includes options for:
Contact Information – Add address, email, or phone details.
Main Menu – Display your store navigation vertically.
Items – Customize the order and design of the menu items.
Top Bar – Add extra navigation or quick links above the main header area.
Header Extensions
The Header Extensions section allows you to expand header functionality beyond the standard design — such as adding custom scripts, widgets, or third-party app integrations (for example, search bars, language selectors, or mini-carts).
Megamenu Modules
Megamenus help you organize large or complex product categories with additional visual and interactive elements.
Megamenu Item – Each item represents a section within your megamenu. You can include images, links, collections, or custom content blocks to showcase featured products or categories directly in your dropdown menus.
Search Modules
Search modules extend your header’s search bar, making it more powerful and visually engaging. They can display multiple types of content directly in the search results.
Includes:
Banners – Display promotional banners or featured campaigns inside the search dropdown.
Collection List – Show relevant product collections based on the search query.
Navigation Links – Add quick links to important store pages (e.g., “New Arrivals”, “Best Sellers”).
