Installation
Valor is delivered as a theme ZIP from valortheme.com.
- Download the latest
Valor-x.y.z.zipfrom the website. - In your Shopify admin, go to Online Store → Themes.
- Click Add theme → Upload zip file, choose the ZIP, and upload.
- Valor is added as an unpublished theme. Click Customize to open the Theme Editor and preview it.
- When you are happy, click Publish.
Always preview a new theme (or an update) on an unpublished copy before publishing to your live store.
Shopify does not update uploaded themes in place, so an update is a new upload:
- Upload the new
Valor-x.y.z.zipas above (it arrives unpublished). - Re-apply your settings and content, or use the Theme Editor to copy over your customizations, then preview.
- Publish the updated theme when ready.
Your existing published theme keeps working until you publish the new one, so there is no downtime.
The section button-style control changed from an "Use outline style" checkbox to a Solid / Outline / Text link dropdown in Image banner, Slideshow, Rich text, Image with text, and Promo grid. Buttons you had customized away from the default may reset to the default — re-pick Outline or Text link on those buttons after updating. Everything else keeps its look.
The global Background and Foreground colours were replaced by colour schemes. If you had customized them, set the same colours on the first scheme in Theme settings → Colors. Sections default to the first scheme.
No settings need checking. The default product template includes the new Product disclosures and EU legal guarantee blocks; if your product template is customized, add them in the Theme Editor. If you sell to consumers in the EU, upload the official notice — see EU Legal Guarantee.
