Shopify theme documentation

Kind Rhythm

A focused Shopify theme for skincare and body-care brands that organize product discovery around a clear daily routine.

  • Version 2.0.0
  • One preset: Kind Rhythm

A calm structure for routine-led catalogs

Kind Rhythm connects routine steps, product roles, supporting education, trust cues, and tactile media without making medical or product-outcome claims.

The theme uses Shopify-native foundations for product, collection, search, cart, content, localization, and app-block surfaces. Progressive enhancements retain documented native fallbacks.

Included theme surfaces

Routine-led merchandising

Routine steps, product roles, education, trust cues, and supporting media share one focused presentation system.

Product and discovery foundations

Applicable product media, variants, swatches, selling plans, pickup, recommendations, unit pricing, collections, and search use Shopify data and forms.

Cart and content paths

Cart page and drawer foundations, pages, contact, blog, articles, password, gift cards, locale controls, social links, and app blocks share the Kind Rhythm visual language.

Set up the Kind Rhythm homepage

Work on an unpublished Kind Rhythm theme until you have checked every product, link, image, and claim. The steps below configure a two-step Routine map from the clean preset without changing theme files.

1. Check the prerequisites

  1. In Shopify admin, confirm that Kind Rhythm version 2.0.0 is installed with the Kind Rhythm preset and is still unpublished. Do not publish the theme while you are setting up or reviewing the page.
  2. Prepare at least two distinct products for the two Routine step blocks. Each product needs a featured image, a truthful title and description, and the catalog data you intend shoppers to see.
  3. Check inventory for the products you choose. Match tracked quantities and the Sell when out of stock setting to your real catalog policy. Some Shopify screens call this Continue selling when out of stock.
  4. Choose an existing image for the Texture media block only if you own it or have permission to use it. Add useful alt text in Content > Files before selecting the image in the Theme Editor.

2. Publish products and verify availability

  1. Go to Products and open each product you plan to feature. Confirm its Status is Active before expecting it to appear in the storefront.
  2. In Publishing, choose Manage publishing and enable Online Store for each featured product. Keep other sales channels aligned with your own sales plan.
  3. Open Inventory for each selected variant. Confirm tracked quantities and the Sell when out of stock policy match your intended availability, then save and read back the product state.
  4. Open a featured product through Online Store preview. Its title and featured image should load. If your catalog also includes a sold-out product, verify its sold-out state separately; an available product should add to cart.

3. Show the guide page and wire the main menu

  1. Go to Online Store > Pages. Create or open the guide page you intend shoppers to use, review its content, set Visibility to Visible when ready, and save.
  2. Go to Content > Menus > Main menu. In older Shopify navigation, use Online Store > Navigation > Main menu.
  3. Link the pages that matter to your store, such as Home, Catalog, your guide, and Contact. Use Shopify's internal link picker instead of pasting a preview URL.
  4. Remove stale or duplicate menu items only after checking their destinations, then save the menu. Open each link in storefront preview and confirm that it stays inside the same store.

4. Open the correct Routine map

  1. Go to Online Store > Kind Rhythm > Edit theme. If Shopify shows the theme library first, use Online Store > Themes > Kind Rhythm > Customize. Confirm that the theme is unpublished before continuing.
  2. In the page selector, choose Home page. In the left sidebar, open Routine map. Keep the existing block order: two Routine step blocks, Product role, Education note, Trust cue, Texture media, then Education accordion.

5. Fill every section and block field

  1. In the Routine map section, set Eyebrow to a short context label, Heading to the routine's plain-language order, and Intro to a brief explanation of how the cards work. Avoid treatment, efficacy, or universal-suitability wording.
  2. Open the first Routine step block. Fill Step label, Title, Summary, and Product role label, then use Product to select the first image-bearing product. Explain only what the product does in this sequence.
  3. Open the second Routine step block. Fill Step label, Title, Summary, and Product role label, then select a different image-bearing Product. Make the order between step 1 and step 2 obvious.
  4. Open Product role. Fill Role label, Title, and Summary. Optional product reference may point to a third product when the card explains where that product fits; otherwise leave it blank intentionally.
  5. Open Education note. Fill Title and Body with a short order or usage-context note that helps a shopper read the routine.
  6. Open Trust cue. Fill Title and Body with calm, verifiable selection guidance. Product descriptions, ingredient information, and routine order are appropriate sources; medical or guaranteed-result claims are not.
  7. Open Texture media. Select an existing rights-cleared Image, then fill Title, Body, and Caption. Describe what is visibly present and keep the asset's maintained alt text accurate.
  8. Open Education accordion. Fill Title and Body with practical guidance for reading or adapting the routine. Keep the text useful when the disclosure is opened with a keyboard and without JavaScript.
  9. Review the seven blocks in order. Do not delete or reorder them unless your content plan explicitly requires a different structure.

6. Save and verify the storefront

  1. Click Save once after all section and block fields are ready. Wait for Shopify to confirm the save before leaving the editor.
  2. Use the desktop and mobile preview controls. On both views, confirm that the heading and intro are readable, both selected products show the correct title and image, the role and education cards are present, and the texture image is not cropped into an unusable detail.
  3. Check that no onboarding placeholder remains. Open both product links, your guide link, and Contact. Confirm availability matches your real catalog and no link uses an editor-only or password-bearing preview URL.
  4. Use the keyboard to reach the Education accordion and activate it with Enter or Space. The focus indicator must remain visible, and the opened guidance must be readable without horizontal scrolling.

7. Fix placeholders without changing theme code

  1. If a Routine step says Product details are unavailable for this step, reopen that block and select the intended product explicitly. Then confirm that the product is Active, published to Online Store, and has a featured image.
  2. If the product title appears but its image is unavailable, add or correct the product's featured image in Products, save, and refresh the Theme Editor preview.
  3. A blank Product selector in each of the first two Routine step blocks uses an automatic fallback: the first two Online Store-visible products with images in the All collection. Select products explicitly when order matters. Later product references stay empty when blank.
  4. If Texture media shows Add an image to show texture or product detail, select an existing rights-cleared Image in that block. A product image does not fill this field automatically.
  5. If the section says Add routine blocks to build this section, restore the intended seven-block order before entering copy. If a save has an unclear result, stop editing and reconcile the readback instead of clicking Save again automatically.

8. Reset safely to the clean preset state

  1. Open Routine map in the unpublished theme. Clear Product in both Routine step blocks, clear Optional product reference in Product role, and clear Image in Texture media. Leave products, inventory, pages, menus, and theme publication unchanged.
  2. Restore the section copy. Set Eyebrow to "Routine education", Heading to "Build a simple routine around product roles", and Intro to "Use this section to explain order, texture, product roles, and care notes without relying on an app."
  3. Restore Routine step 1. Set Step label to "Step 1", Title to "Start with a clear first step", Summary to "Describe the first product role in plain language.", and Product role label to "Start". Restore Routine step 2 with "Step 2", "Add the support step", "Explain how the next product fits into the routine.", and "Support" in the same four fields.
  4. Restore the remaining cards. In Product role, use "Product role", "Explain where this product fits", and "Keep product-role copy factual and easy to scan." In Education note, use Title "Routine note" and Body "Add a short process note or usage context." In Trust cue, use Title "Clear role guidance" and Body "Use calm, verifiable support copy."
  5. Restore Texture media with Title "Texture detail", Body "Show a detail image or keep this panel as an omitted-media fallback.", and a blank Caption. Restore Education accordion with Title "How to read this step" and Body "Keep supporting guidance readable without JavaScript." Confirm the seven-block order, then click Save once.

Frequently asked questions

Why is a product missing from a Routine step?

Check that the product is Active, published to Online Store, and has a featured image. Reopen the step, select the intended product, and refresh the preview. If it appears as sold out, check its inventory separately.

What happens if I leave a step's Product selector blank?

The first two Routine step blocks can fall back to the first two Online Store-visible products with images in the All collection. Select products explicitly when their order matters. Later optional product references stay empty when left blank.

Can I leave the Texture media image empty?

Yes. The block shows its add-image prompt. To show media, select an existing image you have the right to use and keep its alt text accurate in Content > Files.

How do I reset the section without changing my catalog?

Follow step 8 of the setup guide to clear the selected products and Texture media image, then restore the preset copy. Leave products, inventory, pages, menus, and theme publication unchanged.
