Before you start
You’ll need:- Voyager installed on your store (see Installation)
- Your brand logo (PNG or SVG, ideally 480×120 or similar)
- One brand color (your primary ink)
- A hero image or short video (MP4 or WebM, under 4 MB for performance)
1. Upload your logo (1 minute)
In the Theme Editor, click the gear icon (Theme settings) in the left sidebar.- Open the Logo group.
- Logo (default / navy variant) — upload your main logo. This appears on cream and light backgrounds.
- Logo (light variant for dark backgrounds) — upload a white-fill version. This appears on the navy hero overlay and any dark section.
- Logo width (desktop) — start with
140 px. Adjust later once you see the result. - Favicon — upload a square 32×32 PNG or SVG for the browser tab icon.
2. Pick a theme style (30 seconds)
Theme settings → Theme styles. Three named presets:| Preset | Best for |
|---|---|
| Editorial Navy (default) | Maritime / heritage / tailored / restrained — the original Voyager mood |
| Warm Cream | Beauty, home goods, wellness — warmer ink on warm cream with caramel accents |
| Minimal Monochrome | Sculpture, niche fragrance, art-led brands — pure black on white, no color accent |
3. Set your brand color (1 minute)
Theme settings → Colors → Primary (ink). Paste your hex code (e.g.#1A2C3E). The primary color drives:
- Header brand wordmark fallback (if no logo uploaded)
- Buttons (filled style)
- Active states across the storefront
- Links in editorial text
4. Replace the hero (2 minutes)
The home page hero is the first thing visitors see. By default it ships with travel-inspired demo imagery — swap it for your own.- Click on the Hero section in the left sidebar (or click the hero on the storefront preview).
- Each slide is a block — click the first slide.
- Headline (script) — your editorial subtitle (default: “the summer voyage”)
- Headline (serif) — your main heading (default: “Summer Collection”)
- Body — one-line subtext (default: blank)
- Poster image — upload a still image (1400×900 minimum, JPG q85).
- Video — optional. Upload an MP4 or WebM 1080p, under 4 MB. The poster appears while the video loads.
- Button 1 / Button 2 — label + link to a collection or page.
Hero videos load lazily — only the first slide’s video starts on page load. Subsequent slides preload metadata only, which keeps the home page fast even with multiple videos.
5. Write your tagline (30 seconds)
Theme Editor → Header group → Announcement bar → Message. Default: “Currently sailing · Summer MMXXVI”. Replace with your own tagline — free shipping over $X, current drop name, season + year, anything one short line long.6. Connect your collections (2 minutes)
Voyager’s homepage references specific collections. To wire them to yours:- Click the New arrivals section → Collection → pick your collection.
- Click the Category archive section → for each block, pick a collection.
- Click the Featured collection section (if added) → pick a collection.
7. Set up the footer (2 minutes)
Footer is block-based. By default Voyager ships with:- Newsletter signup (floating above)
- 4 link list columns (Explore, House & Service, Customer Care, Legal)
- Social icons
- Payment icons
- Studio block (location + EST · MMXXVI seal)
- Trust strip — 4 lines above the footer (“Complimentary worldwide shipping” etc.). Edit per line.
- Link lists — pick a menu in Online Store → Navigation (e.g., “Footer — Explore”) and reference it here.
- Studio block — your address / location. Or remove if you don’t want it.
- Copyright text — auto-updated, but you can override.
8. Publish (10 seconds)
Top-right of the Theme Editor: Save (saves draft) → close → go to Themes → ⋯ on Voyager → Publish. Your visitors now see your customized Voyager.What’s next
