Release notes
Elarune is an original Shopify theme built for skincare, beauty and daily-ritual catalogues. Version numbers follow the theme_version value in the theme's settings.
1.1.1 — current
- Elarune is now a free download from studio.mufatech.com/elarune under a short free license.
- The footer shows a translated “Theme by Mufatech” link to the Elarune page. Keeping this link is the only condition of the license.
1.1.0
- Color schemes: five included schemes (Porcelain, Linen, Rosewood, Velvet Noir, Botanical) that can be applied per section.
- New theme settings: Layout (page width, section spacing), Buttons (corner radius, lettering) and Product cards (style, image ratio and fit, type, swatches, rating, sale badge, sold out label).
- New sections: Slideshow, Image with text, Rich text, Multicolumn, Collapsible content, Video (Shopify-hosted, YouTube or Vimeo, loaded on click), Logo list and Countdown banner (uses the end date you set; hidden or replaced by your message once it ends).
- New page templates: Landing, About and FAQ.
- Cookie consent banner connected to Shopify's Customer Privacy API; off by default.
- Collection pages: products per page, mobile columns, and page numbers, a Load more button or infinite scroll.
- Sections no longer fall back to the Elarune sample photography: an empty image shows a placeholder in the theme editor and nothing on the storefront. Default template text is neutral placeholder copy you replace with your own.
- Volume pricing tiers show real prices; savings labels appear only when you enable them for a matching automatic discount.
- Single Elarune preset. The former Velvet Noir and Botanical Essence palettes are now color schemes.
1.0.7
- New Featured product section: place a single product on any template, with app blocks and Custom Liquid supported alongside the built-in blocks.
- Image focal points are now respected in the editorial story, texture, timeline and ingredient sections.
- Stock and batch labels rewritten in plain language across all twelve interface languages, so they read correctly for any catalogue rather than one product type.
1.0.6
- Gift card product pages no longer show stock status, batch details, volume pricing or the shipping policy link, none of which apply to a gift card.
- Mega menu promotions can be attached to any top-level menu item.
1.0.5
- Cart quantity changes update line and order totals without a page reload; the manual update button now appears only when JavaScript is unavailable.
1.0.4
- Customer account templates added: login, register, account, order, addresses, activate account and reset password.
- Product page JavaScript split and loaded on interaction, so no single script exceeds Shopify's page-load budget.
- Sections fall back to bundled sample imagery when no image has been chosen, so a freshly installed theme still reads as a finished layout.
- Touch targets, type sizes and layout verified down to 360 px.
Core capabilities
- Native stepped routine chapters and formula ingredient dossiers.
- Built-in conversion tools — sticky buy bar, free shipping progress, routine bundles and in-cart upsells — configured in the theme editor, with no additional app needed for these features.
- Accessible before/after image comparison slider.
- Predictive search with visual product cards.
- Twelve complete interface languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese (Brazil), Turkish, Arabic, Japanese, Korean and Chinese (Simplified).
Applying an update
Duplicate your live theme before updating, apply the new version to the duplicate, re-check any settings you have customised, then publish. Your content and settings live in your store rather than in the theme files, so they are preserved.
