Features and answers

Use this area when a result depends on more than one Theme Editor panel or changes across several storefront surfaces. Each answer explains the relationship, then links to the detailed guide for the exact settings.

These guides show where one section or template offers several layouts:

Start with a question

How Strata settings work together

Global and local controls can form one decision

A Theme setting can act as a master control while a section decides whether to use the feature locally. Transparent Header and parallax are examples: enabling only one side is not enough. The linked canonical guide shows where each control lives.

Shopify data decides what can appear

Some theme settings present data rather than create it. Collection filters need matching Shopify product data, ratings need a compatible review app, and payment or localization controls need the corresponding Shopify configuration.

Desktop and mobile can use different paths

Do not assume that the same control opens the same interface at every width. Product-card quick buy, Header navigation, Search, media crops, and some overlay routes deliberately adapt to the available space.

Accessibility preferences take priority over decoration

The theme's Reduce animation setting and an operating-system reduced-motion preference can suppress autoplay, parallax, reveal, or transition treatments. The content and controls should remain available without the decorative motion.

Where the detailed instructions live

• Use Theme settings for exact global labels and options.
• Use Sections for section order, blocks, and local dependencies.
• Use Templates for page-specific sections and settings.
• Use Troubleshooting when the configured result differs from the expected behavior.

Features and answers is reserved for recurring questions about settings that work together. Ordinary controls and blocks remain in their detailed guides.
