Generally speaking it's a cute theme. However, I wish there is a sliding effect for the announcement and more lines to write. Moreover, there should be also left and right clickable arrow for every series, while there is only "view more" or <4 items can be displayed. For collection list, I wish there can be as many as we want instead of only 3.
Easy to customize for my store and any issues I’ve had support has been great in getting resolved.
Wonderful support! I'm very happy 😊
My experience with the Opal theme has been extremely disappointing. After working with it extensively, I can confidently say that Shopify’s free themes are far more flexible and practical to use. One of the most frustrating limitations is the lack of proper image customization. The theme does not provide adequate controls to adjust or fit images properly within sections, which makes it difficult
Extremely rigid. Uses oversized typography that can not be changed in some places or changed globally. That theme is clean but super opinionated. Editions is bad at: Editing text in multiple places Custom sections on product pages Anything that feels like “why can’t I just change this sentence?” Per-page customization without touching code Rigid design, no flexibility in header or footer
Working great for my small business. Thank you :-)
