Version 5.1.1

Essentially, what this does is optionally adds another button to product pages and quick view that allows your customers to bypass the cart and go right to checkout if they just want to buy that item right away. It is a smart button that will appear differently based on your payment settings. For example, on Safari browsers and iOS devices, a "Buy with Apple Pay" button may appear so users can checkout immediately with Apple Pay. Read more about it in the link added above.

April 2, 2018

Version 5.1

This is a fairly major update whose primary purpose was to fulfill Shopify requirements in two areas: sections parity (an effort to ensure that all themes in the theme store have several basic homepage sections in common), and to thoroughly audit images throughout the theme to decrease page loading times. We also took the opportunity to add a few new features and enhancements as noted below.

New home page sections:

• Featured product - show a single product on the home page with the ability to choose options and add it to the cart
• Image with text - a section with a half-width image with text next to it
• Google Map - a map that shows your store location along with your store address
• Newsletter - a full-width section with optional background image, call-to-action text, and a newsletter signup box

Image rendering and page speed enhancements:

• Added lazy-loading support to all images throughout the theme so they do not load until the user scrolls to them in the viewport.
• Adjusted image sizing throughout the theme to ensure that only the image sizes necessary are loaded based on the screen size and device used.
• Improved rendering of images on Retina and other high-resolution devices.

Other new features and enhancements:

• Improved quantity box on product page and quick view so you can type a number instead of just using the arrows.
• Added swipeable product images in the gallery on mobile devices
• Replaced the old Google map on the contact us page with a new map that allows you to add an address and "Get Directions" button. You can also just add your business address instead of having to determine latitude/longitude coordinates.
• Added H1 tag to home page automatically (instead of requiring a Rich Text or other CTA block).
