  • Header group: a Scrolling text section instead of the announcement bar, then the Header and the Breadcrumb.
  • Header: Desktop menu style Drawer, Sticky header Always, Hide border on, Show collection images on, the promotion block off, and the language and country selectors on.
  • Footer group: Email signup and the Footer.
  • Overlay group: the Popup (with Enable popup off) and the Cookies banner, with their default settings, as in every preset. See Popup section and the Overlay group.

Home page

The Nomad home page shows, from the top: Slideshow, Featured collection, Heading, two Images with text sections, Collection slider, Video: background, Heading, Featured product and Countdown banner.

Templates included

Nomad installs the same templates as the other two presets. Only the home page and the Header and Footer groups are the preset's own. The alternate templates are contact, lookbook, sale and story for pages and story for products: see Regular page and Product page.

Can I use the Nomad home page in another preset?

Not directly. The home page comes only with the preset you install. In a store that runs another preset, add the same sections to your home page in the theme editor and set the same values.
