uStore Theme Designs

[Liz Synadinos]

My customers' stores are still in legacy format. They are corporate stores where a small group of purchasers order print items for the various divisions, groups, and individuals. The NG themes have so much fluff to them that is not needed, nor would be appreciated by these clients. Has anyone edited their NG stores to be a bit more basic? Like no "featured products (because they don't really change)? They like the simple grid layout so they can see multiple products at once. For example one client is medical and has 50 different clinic locations. They want the categories to by by clinic and then sub-categories to be by product type. Do I have to start from scratch and create my own theme to achieve this?

If you want, it is very easy to hide the main home page banner and category icons from the default AquaBlue theme by adding this simple css to the theme editor in uStore admin:

.promotion-wrapper,

.categories-wrapper {

  display:none;

}

You can see in the screen shot below, that it will leave you with the top menu bar, the products list area and footer:

By default, the homepage shows the last group from the product group list. To change this behaviour you would need to make a new theme, but it is pretty close to what your customer probably wants anyhow.

Also, the display is a grid of products like you already want. I can't remember the number of products in the grid before it starts to use paging, but I think you could change that in a new theme. (It would be a nice feature request to change this number by the uStoreAdmin global configurations page though...

Do you have CSS to remove the featured products from categories in the menu dropdown?

[Amanda Duncan]

try this:

.navigation-menu .category-panel .featured-products .featured-products-link {
   display: none;

Unfortunately, that did not work. Here's where it is in the html. It is located in a few spots in the categories-navbar.

Not sure I really understand this?

The HTML you show is from the side menu - "Featured Products" in uStore is displayed on the Home Page and which is usually the Last Root Product Group.

I have not seen Featured Products in the Dropdown unless this is a modified theme.

I used the first code for the homepage and it worked great. I thought maybe there was a way to get rid of the "Featured Products" under the main menu at the top. My example screenshot I shared previously truncated to a side menu because it went to a mobile view when I inspected element to get the HTML. Sorry it was not useful! Here is an example of the main menu where the  "Featured Products" and "See featured products" are that I would like to remove. Let me know if that makes more sense. Thanks so much! ~Heather

ok - now i understand 

span.featured-products a.featured-products-link{

display:none;

}

div.column.category.featured-products-category-item {

display:none;

}

This is perfect! It worked great. Thanks so much. :)
