All cards

Overview #

The All cards theme settings group is designed to manage the overall appearance and functionality of card components across the theme. These settings ensure a consistent look and feel for various card types, such as product, collection, and article cards, and are applied globally. However, they can be overridden at the section or block level for more specific customization.

Key components and functionality #

Introduction to card settings

The All cards settings group provides foundational configurations for card components used throughout the theme. These settings help maintain a cohesive visual style and enhance the user experience by ensuring that all cards have a consistent appearance.

Default image

This setting allows you to select a default image for cards. The image picker enables you to choose an image that will be displayed when no specific image is set for a card. This ensures that all cards have a visual element, enhancing the overall aesthetic of the theme.

Show box shadow

The Show box shadow setting is a checkbox that, when enabled, adds a shadow effect to the card borders. This effect can enhance the visual depth and separation of cards from the background, making them stand out more prominently. The default value for this setting is true, meaning the box shadow is applied by default.

Usage examples #

1. Default image usage: If you have a collection of products where some items do not have specific images, setting a default image ensures that all product cards display an image, maintaining a uniform look across your store.

2. Show box shadow usage: Enabling the box shadow can be particularly useful in themes with a minimalist design, where subtle shadows can add a touch of elegance and focus to product displays without overwhelming the overall design.

These settings provide a foundation for customizing the appearance of card components, allowing for a cohesive and visually appealing presentation across the theme.
