LATEST VERSION
v4.3.0
Released October 9, 2026
Highly active

Savor is actively maintained, with 16 releases in the last 12 months.

Releases in 12 mo 16
Total releases 34
First release May 21, 2025
v4.3.0 FEATURE
Release Notes - Version 4.3.0

Product disclosures are now shown only to buyers in the jurisdiction scoped by the disclosure. This update also includes several bug fixes to cart functionality, carousel usability, and information on pickup location availabilities.

What's Changed

Added

  • Filter product disclosures by the buyer's jurisdiction. A disclosure scoped to a country or a country subdivision is now shown only to buyers in that jurisdiction, and is shown whenever the buyer's jurisdiction cannot be determined.

Fixes and improvements

  • Stop rendering product card slideshow arrows on cards that have only one navigable image, where clicking them did nothing.
  • Improved desktop carousel clicks and drag cursor behavior.
  • Fixed product cards and quick add requiring two taps in carousels on iPhone.
  • Improved product disclosure icon sizing and alignment.
  • Fixed the cart drawer overlapping the installments details dialog after cart contents changed.
  • Fixed cart notes not saving after adding the first item to an initially empty cart drawer.
  • Fixed cart quantity buttons becoming enabled at their limits after cart note updates.
  • Renamed the header's customer account menu setting to "Customer account menu" so it is no longer mistaken for the header navigation menu.
  • Fixed header dropdown menus not resizing when images load after the menu opens.
  • Improved how quickly the page responds when opening the mobile menu and the cart drawer.
  • Fixed hidden variant media showing again after selecting an unavailable option combination.
  • Fixed the menu backdrop not dimming the page after scrolling.
  • Fixed product pages showing pickup as not available when the first store listed was out of stock but another store had it in stock.
  • Fixed cart quantity updates from quick order lists when a Buy X Get Y discount apply
  • Fixed the cart count after navigating back to a previous page.
  • Improved first paint time by no longer preloading theme fonts.
  • Fixed the sticky header disappearing on mobile while search, the menu, or the cart is open.
v4.2.0 FEATURE
Release Notes - Version 4.2.0

This update improves support for right-to-left (RTL) languages. The HTML page's base text direction is now set to match the shopper's requested language, correcting text order and alignment. This update also includes various bug fixes, notably the cart drawer and cart page showing stale line items after using the browser Back button.

What's Changed

Added

  • Adds a new Liquid drop and styling to support display of right-to-left languages. All templates now render [dir={{ request.locale.direction }}] to communicate the language's direction to the browser.
  • Alignment and position settings that store left/right values now render as logical CSS (start/end), so they mirror correctly on right-to-left storefronts with no change on left-to-right storefronts.

Fixes and improvements

  • Align the account popover dialog so it opens from the account button instead of the bottom of the header.
  • Fixed the cart drawer and cart page showing stale line items after a browser Back, whether the page comes back from the back/forward cache or is rebuilt from the HTTP cache.
  • Render the Catalog link in menus as text instead of a Liquid error when no product image is available.
  • Fixed the filters drawer leaving empty space beside the "See items" button when no filters were applied.
  • Serve smaller product card images in two-column mobile collection and search grids.
  • Load Quick Add's JavaScript only when Quick Add is enabled.
  • Fixed the header language selector's dropdown arrow keeping the top row text color instead of following the transparent header text color.
  • Fixed price filter values being wiped mid-edit when a shopper moves between the low and high price boxes.
  • Fixed anchor-positioned popovers staying glued to the physical left edge of their trigger in right-to-left locales.
  • Fixed prices, price ranges, unit prices, SKUs, discount codes and gift card codes rendering with their parts in the wrong order inside right-to-left text.
  • Fixed horizontal scroll hint fades and scroll-into-view alignment in right-to-left languages, so the fade appears on the correct edge and tracks the scroll position.
  • Fixed uploaded videos in popup link blocks not playing in Safari. The video now starts when the popup opens and stops when it closes.
  • Fixed swatch rows widening rounded product cards before their layout initializes.
v4.1.5 FIX
Release Notes - Version 4.1.5

This release ships multiple bug fixes and performance improvements.

What's Changed

Fixes and improvements

  • Fixed blocks with rounded corners being forced to equal heights.
  • Fixed the page jumping back to the top after closing the cart drawer on a phone, so shoppers keep their place while browsing.
  • Fixed popular countries being listed twice in the country selector.
  • Fixed desktop header dropdown menus opening blank while the page is still loading.
  • Fixed a thin line of the page background appearing along the bottom edge of the header's top row.
  • Fixed app blocks not responding to clicks on the storefront when placed inside a Hero section.
  • Improved display on iPhone: pages now extend edge-to-edge, removing the white bars beside the notch in landscape, while content and controls stay clear of the notch and home indicator.
  • Fixed group blocks in product cards stacking on mobile when their "Vertical on mobile" setting was turned off.
  • Fixed cart quantity inputs losing what the buyer typed when the cart refreshed mid-edit.
  • Fixed the cart item quantity input shrinking, most visibly in the cart drawer on tablets.
  • Fixed grid layouts, such as the collection list, overflowing the page and overlapping other sections on the storefront.
  • Fixed a horizontal scrollbar flashing on slideshows when moving the pointer between the pagination dots and the slide.
  • Fixed a slide's video thumbnail showing behind the text when a slideshow places content below the media.
  • Multiple improvements for rendering performance.
v4.1.4 FIX
Release Notes - Version 4.1.4

This release ships multiple bug fixes and performance improvements.

What's Changed

Fixes and improvements

  • Fixed desktop header submenus that could close before the pointer reached their links.
  • Minimized style tag loading for product cards to improve rendering performance.
  • Reduced layout work during initial page render by measuring header height only on pages that need it.
  • Preloaded price styles for empty product grids to prevent flash of unstyled content.
  • Fixed the Quick add button showing a disabled "Add" instead of "Choose" when a sold-out variant is selected, and kept the cart icon visible on out-of-stock buttons.
  • Removed unused animation and transition CSS rules from the base stylesheet.
  • Removed unused CSS custom properties from the theme's inline styles, reducing the CSS parsed on every page load.
  • Fixed the cart summary not staying in view when scrolling the cart page with "Extend to screen edge" enabled.
  • Improved mega menu keyboard and screen reader accessibility with a dedicated submenu toggle on desktop.
v4.1.3 FIX
Release Notes - Version 4.1.3

This release ships multiple bug fixes and performance improvements.

I love this theme. I tried several free themes before settling on this one. It is functional (for my needs) and looks great.

A variant product was added and selected which option should be visible by default but not working on frontend. Another thing is that all images appear in the variant product, but actually it supposed 1 image appear and choosing a weight-wise image should appear. Can you fix this?

The design of the site is nice; however, there is a big problem with uploading pages on iOS devices. Sometimes, I couldn’t even upload my website pages in Safari. Could you please fix it?

On iOS mobile devices (tested on iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 17), the Featured Collection Carousel section displays a random non-first image (2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 5th) instead of the primary product image on page load. This happens across all pages where the carousel section is used, and reducing products to a single image does not resolve it.
