v8.0.0

April 9, 2025

Big update incoming! We’ve revamped product options with more robust swatch settings and now have support for the upcoming variant limit increase. Plus we’ve included a bunch of smaller updates and features while clearing out our bug list.

Added

• Add revised header bar with more block options

  • Header has been improved so multiple navigation styles can be used. Full width dropdowns or single columns can be used and both combined with content blocks.

  • New block types can now be used in the mobile drawer menu.
