I need assistance, how do I disable a ripple effect when adding a product to cart or clicking on a button that opens a quick buy? I have a huge bubble being created every time I click... The rest of the theme is ok. I'd like to get help...

I LOVE IT! Wir benutzen es seit einem Jahr. Vieleicht wird das Template ja mal an die neuen Horizon Vorlagen angepasst :-)

Theme support is hard to come by so I will leave my problem here and update my review if the problem gets fixed. When you add a "rich text" section it doesn't go full width on desktop even if the full width box is turned on. Toggling the button has no change on the width on desktop.

Please avoid! I had Shopify partners look at SEO issues, and it turns out the code is bugged and will rewrite itself, ultimately stopping our site from appearing on Google. So much time and money down the drain because of one decision to pick this theme. Please don't make the same mistake I did! Pick a different theme!
