First release March 14, 2023
v3.11.0 FEATURE

This release adds the Shopify account component to the header, meeting the Shopify Theme Store requirement effective July 30, 2026. Customers on stores with customer accounts get passwordless sign-in, Shop recognition, and an account menu directly from the header.

Added

  • Shopify account component in the header, shown on desktop and mobile for stores using customer accounts. Includes a new "Account menu" setting in the header section to choose the menu shown to signed-in customers (defaults to the customer account main menu).

Changed

  • Stores using legacy customer accounts keep the previous account icon, controlled by the existing "Show account icon" setting. On stores using customer accounts, the account component is always shown.
v3.10.0 FEATURE

We've added optional slideshow autoplay controls to the hero, product media gallery, featured product, product stories, and social gallery sections. This release also includes a refactor of hero section responsive styles for clearer mobile/desktop control.

Added

  • Optional slideshow autoplay toggle and delay setting added to: Hero, Product media gallery, Featured product, Product stories, and Social gallery sections.

Changed

  • Important: Renamed hero size CSS classes for clearer mobile/desktop distinction:

    • .hero--small → .hero--desktop-small
    • .hero--medium → .hero--desktop-medium
    • .hero--large → .hero--desktop-large
    • .hero--full → .hero--desktop-full

    If you have custom CSS targeting any of these class names, update your selectors after installing this update.

Fixes and other improvements

  • Refactored hero section responsive styles to separate mobile and desktop height controls more clearly.
v3.9.0 FEATURE

We’ve made updates that add an image picker to collapsible content and ensure compatibility with the new Liquid rigid parser.

Added

  • Added optional image support to accordion blocks in the Accordion section and the main product Collapsible row.

Changed

  • Improved spacing and readability of rich text (RTE) content within accordion panels.

Fixes and other improvements

  • Updated Liquid syntax to comply with Liquid’s new rigid parser mode, including correcting filter usage in render tags.
v3.8.0 FEATURE

We’ve made updates that improve cart logic, error handling, and product info layout.

Added

  • Improved cart behavior with new logic to handle error states during quantity updates.
  • Added event listener in cart logic to handle edge cases when partial quantities are added to the cart.
  • Added optional cart subtitle with count for clearer cart context.

Changed

  • Adjusted positioning for the cart toggle text icon to improve alignment and spacing.

Fixes and other improvements

  • Fixed header cart count text color variable for consistent visibility.
  • Updated error handling logic for cart line items.
  • Fixed content in product info that caused images to overflow container.
v3.7.0 FEATURE

We’ve made updates that improve product cards, enhance the cart layout, and address several small bugs.

Added

  • Added a “Sold out” badge for product cards.

Changed

  • Simplified price logic. Some class names associated with prices have been updated or removed.
  • Updated cart drawer and cart page layouts to improve spacing and usability. Some class names associated with the cart have been updated or removed.

Fixes and other improvements

  • Fixed an issue where trapFocus was not working in certain edge cases, which affected the product popup.
  • Fixed missing preview images for 3D models in product cards.
  • Fixed a layout bug that caused the quantity selector value to be hidden on mobile in the cart drawer.

This theme is beautiful and easily customizable, but the real star of the show is the Purple Labs Team, who are incredibly helpful. I had a problem with part of my custom code not working after a theme update, and John went right in and fixed it all. Amazing!

AWESOME! Love the theme, the customizations are easy and straightforward, very modern looking and easy to use. The best part though is their customer service. They responded to me very quickly sharing custom CSS code that I just have to copy and paste into my store for any design changes I need. Truly could not be happier and I'm not someone that typically leaves reviews. Buy with confidence!
