Theme settings overview

How Studio Arcana organizes Theme settings and section controls in the editor.

Open the theme editor from Sales channels → Online Store → Themes → Customize. Global controls live under Theme settings (gear icon); each section has its own settings panel.

Sales channels > Online Store > Themes > Customize > Theme settings

Groups appear in this order so design comes first, then commerce and operations:

  • Theme — brand name, logo, favicon, content width, dark mode toggle
  • Character — Refined vs Bold feel for headings, buttons, and card shadow
  • Colors and Color schemes — storewide palette and per-band schemes
  • Typography — heading and body fonts
  • Shape and spacing — corner radii, padding sizes, spacing density
  • Motion — intensity, scroll reveals, page transitions, decorative options
  • Galleries — default image mask
  • Cart and Booking — drawer vs page cart, Reserve or external booking
  • Age gate, Analytics, SEO, Launch checklist

Section setting order

Section and block settings follow a consistent order so the most common choices appear first:

  • Content — headings, body copy, and other text
  • Data source — products, collections, menus, metaobjects
  • Actions and links — buttons, URLs, booking links
  • Layout — columns, alignment, height
  • Media — images and video
  • Colors — color schemes and overlays
  • Spacing — padding and dividers
  • Advanced behavior — motion, progressive reveal, and other power-user options

Small sections may skip group headings to keep the panel short. Advanced options stay available; they are listed later rather than removed.

Defaults and upgrades

  • Saved setting values keep working across updates.
  • Setting IDs are not renamed casually — only labels, help text, and order change unless a release notes a deliberate default change.
  • Vertical presets (Hair, Spa, Tattoo, Beauty) bake sensible homepage defaults; you can still override every control.

Troubleshooting

  • Cannot find a control — check Theme settings (gear) vs the selected section in the left rail.
  • Change does not appear — save, then hard-refresh the preview; password-protected stores need Theme Editor Preview for scripts to load.
  • Use the Launch checklist group for a prioritized go-live list.
