Customizations for Simple
Each paid Shopify account receives 60 minutes of free design time from Shopify support. This design time can be used to add specific features to a theme that can help your store make sales.
The following customizations can be made to Simple by Shopify support. Review the description of each supported customization to determine which might help your business.
Add banner image to header
Design time: 15 minutes
By default, you can't add a banner image to the header.
This customization adds an image to the header that displays beside the logo and across the full width of the header.
If you request this customization, then you should plan to use a banner image that is shorter than it is wide. Otherwise, the banner image pushes the main content of the store far down the screen, which can lead to lower conversion rates.
This customization should be avoided on stores that already use a slideshow section or other image section on the homepage to highlight information.
Change the alignment of the logo
Design time: 15 minutes
By default, the logo is aligned to the left in the header.
This customization aligns the logo to the center or the right.
This customization works well for stores with specific design requirements.
Avoid this customization on stores that don’t have specific branding requirements that require a centered logo, because a left-aligned logo is more easily discoverable by customers.
Move mobile menu icon inline with logo
Design time: 15 minutes
By default, the menu icon displays below the logo on smaller screens.
This customization repositions the menu icon so it appears beside the logo instead. This also decreases the size of the logo.
Avoid this customization on stores that have a detailed logo that is more readable at a larger size.
Add carousel slider to product thumbnail images
Design time: 15 minutes
By default, all product images display on the product page.
This customization adds an image thumbnail slider that lets users scroll through thumbnails in groups, instead of displaying all thumbnails on the page at the same time.
This customization works well for stores with a large number of images that have a similar composition.
Avoid this customization on stores that have a small number of product images, or if the variant images show additional product information, such as alternate angles of a product.
Display text and buttons inside image on mobile slideshow
Design time: 15 minutes
By default, the slideshow text and buttons display below the image on smaller screens to prevent them from obscuring the image.
This customization moves the text and buttons so that they display on top of the image, similar to how they display on larger screens.
This customization works well for stores with slideshow sections where the image should appear in the background to complement the message and call-to-action buttons.
Avoid this customization on stores that use the slideshow to show an image with content that shouldn't be covered up.
