We're thrilled to announce the release of Aurora 3.1.

The new version is designed to enhance both the visual allure and the operational efficiency of your store. It brings several of the most requested features, so we hope you’ll be as excited about the update as we are.

Let’s dive right in!


Transparent header

A transparent header offers a modern, uncluttered look that simplifies navigation. To better match your store’s visual design, adjust the levels of opacity and blur, and add a logo with a transparent background for a polished, professional appearance.

Product siblings

The product siblings feature is a game-changer for stores with extensive inventories. By allowing you to feature related products as variants and interlink them on one centralized product listing, this feature not only enhances product discovery across your store but also boosts SEO.

Flexible media filtering

The latest theme version allows for refined filtering of product media by variant. This means you can now filter each product’s media by different options and associate specific media with multiple variants, ensuring a more customized and relevant browsing experience for your customers.
