Theme settings

Colors, typography, shapes, animation, product cards, cart and search: the settings that apply to the whole store.

Open Theme settings with the paint-brush icon at the bottom left of the editor.

Colors

Celestine uses color schemes. Each scheme defines a background, text, muted text, accent, border, primary and secondary buttons, inputs and badges. Sections and blocks pick a scheme instead of individual colors, so changing a scheme updates every place that uses it.

  • Keep body text dark on light backgrounds. Aim for a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 (the built-in schemes already meet it).
  • Use one scheme for the page background (white by default) and one or two tinted schemes for highlight sections.
  • The sale badge and sold-out badge colors are part of each scheme.

Typography

SettingWhat it does
Heading font / Body fontAny font from Shopify's font library. Bold and italic styles load automatically.
Heading sizeScales every heading in the theme up or down.
Heading letter caseKeep as typed or uppercase.
Body text sizeBase size for paragraphs and UI text.
Button letter caseKeep as typed or uppercase.

Layout and shape

  • Page width: the maximum width of page content.
  • Space between sections: the default vertical rhythm. Each section can still override its own top and bottom spacing.
  • Corners: from sharp to soft, applied to images, cards, inputs and drawers.
  • Button shape and Card style (flat, bordered or raised).

Animations

Animation level has three steps: Off, Subtle and Expressive. Visitors whose device asks for reduced motion always get the calm version, whatever you choose. Fade between pages adds a soft transition when navigating.

Product cards

  • Image shape, text alignment and a second image on hover.
  • Vendor, star rating (from product reviews) and color swatches.
  • Quick add: single-variant products add in one tap; products with options open a quick-view drawer with the full variant picker.
  • Sale badge: show the saving as a percentage or an amount.
  • "New" badge: set how many days a product counts as new (0 turns it off).
  • Custom badges: tag a product badge:Limited and its card shows a "Limited" badge. Change the badge: prefix in the setting if you prefer another.

Cart

Choose what happens after adding to cart (open the drawer, show a notification, or go to the cart page), plus order notes, dynamic checkout buttons, recommendations and reward tiers. See Cart for details.

  • Show suggestions while typing turns predictive search on or off.
  • Popular searches menu: pick a menu whose links appear as suggestions before a visitor types.
  • Show currency codes adds USD, EUR and so on to prices, useful when you sell in several currencies.

Social media

Add your profile links once; the footer icons and share buttons read them from here.
