Fixes and other improvements

  • Set different colors for regular price and sale price across different color schemes and styles in the preset file.

  • Fixed numbers cannot be displayed correctly in the Counters section. This issue only occurs in the theme editor, not on the live frontend, and is caused by changes made in the theme editor.

v4.3.1 FIX

Mandolin 4.3.1 – Minor Improvements

Added

  • Added color options for regular and sale prices in ‘Theme settings → Colors → Prices‘.

  • Added a big logo block to the footer section.

Changed

  • Moved the color option from the product page block to ‘Theme settings → Colors → Prices‘.

Fixed

  • Innate demo preset cannot be imported.

  • Fixed an extra scroll offset that occurred when clicking a color option while the right panel was taller than the left image (stack mode).

v4.3.0 FEATURE

Mandolin 4.3.0 introduces the new Innate demo preset, badges layout options, image overlay color, and blur loading animation, along with a fix for the transparent header issue when the desktop logo is centered.

Added

  • Added new demo preset Innate.

  • Added section ‘Jumbo text’.

  • Added a ‘Badges layout’ option with Vertical and Horizontal values.

  • Added ‘Image overlay color’ option alongside ‘Image overlay opacity’.

Changed

  • Changed the default image loading animation for the Formelle, Eclat, and Lilt demos to Blur, you can customize this setting via ‘Theme settings → Animations’.

Other fixes and improvements

  • Fixed transparent header does not work when 'Desktop logo position' is set to center (this issue was introduced since v4.1.0).
v4.2.0 FEATURE

Mandolin 4.2.0 is here—featuring a new demo preset, enhanced product badges, and smarter discount displays. Now you have full control over badge visibility and colors for sold out, on sale, and custom badges, along with the flexibility to show discounts as percentages or fixed amounts. Plus, conditional settings streamline the theme editor by showing only relevant options, keeping your workflow clean and focused.

Changed

  • Changed product card image ratio to natural by default, so that product images will not be cropped by default, and the ratio can be changed in theme settings.

Added

  • Added new demo preset Lilt.

  • Added support for conditional settings: settings now automatically show or hide based on the value of another setting, reducing visual clutter and improving usability and discoverability in the theme editor.

  • Added percent and fixed-amount support for the product card's "on sale" badge.

  • Added options to show or hide product card badges, including the sold out badge, on sale badge, and custom badge.

  • Added options for setting the color of product card badges, including the sold out badge, on sale badge, and custom badge.

  • Added a discount tag option for the price block on the product page; can now show discounts as a percentage or fixed amount.

  • Added the option "Show sale price first" to the product card settings and the product price block.

Improved

  • Sections now grouped into logical categories for easier navigation in the theme editor.
v4.1.0 FEATURE

Mandolin 4.1.0 introduces two new features.

Added

  • You can now apply discount codes directly from the cart drawer or cart page. This setting is turned off by default, but you can turn on the new "Allow discounts in cart" setting.

I was looking for the perfect theme quite a long time, but then I found Mandolin and I got nicely surprised. The theme is incredible. I have all the new, modern features I need, without installing any of 3rd party apps. You just have everything included in there. Very clean, minimalistic, stylish and functional at the same time. Perfect for high fashion brands. The support team is amazing!

This Shopify theme is absolutely brilliant! It offers a ton of features and is consistently updated. The standout aspect, though, is the customer support. Aaron has been incredibly helpful, always responding quickly and positively to my queries. His suggestions and willingness to implement my ideas have made a significant difference. Overall, I highly recommend!
