The fastest path from a fresh install to a storefront that looks like yours. Ten minutes, no code.

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)
If you’re missing any of these, the steps below note safe defaults you can use to keep moving.

1. Upload your logo (1 minute)

In the Theme Editor, click the gear icon (Theme settings) in the left sidebar.
  1. Open the Logo group.
  2. Logo (default / navy variant) — upload your main logo. This appears on cream and light backgrounds.
  3. Logo (light variant for dark backgrounds) — upload a white-fill version. This appears on the navy hero overlay and any dark section.
  4. Logo width (desktop) — start with 140 px. Adjust later once you see the result.
  5. Favicon — upload a square 32×32 PNG or SVG for the browser tab icon.
If you only have one logo file, upload it to both slots. Voyager will use the same logo everywhere — you can fix this later by uploading a true light variant.

2. Pick a theme style (30 seconds)

Theme settings → Theme styles. Three named presets:
PresetBest for
Editorial Navy (default)Maritime / heritage / tailored / restrained — the original Voyager mood
Warm CreamBeauty, home goods, wellness — warmer ink on warm cream with caramel accents
Minimal MonochromeSculpture, niche fragrance, art-led brands — pure black on white, no color accent
Switching swaps the entire color palette, button corner radius, letter-spacing, section spacing, container width, and card image ratio in one click.

3. Set your brand color (1 minute)

Theme settings → ColorsPrimary (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
The other three “schemes” (Scheme 2, 3, 4) keep their defaults for now. Voyager uses them to vary section backgrounds — Scheme 2 is the navy hero overlay, Scheme 3 is the soft warm-cream accent, Scheme 4 is the deep charcoal footer. Customize them later once you’ve seen them in context.

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.
  1. Click on the Hero section in the left sidebar (or click the hero on the storefront preview).
  2. Each slide is a block — click the first slide.
  3. Headline (script) — your editorial subtitle (default: “the summer voyage”)
  4. Headline (serif) — your main heading (default: “Summer Collection”)
  5. Body — one-line subtext (default: blank)
  6. Poster image — upload a still image (1400×900 minimum, JPG q85).
  7. Video — optional. Upload an MP4 or WebM 1080p, under 4 MB. The poster appears while the video loads.
  8. Button 1 / Button 2 — label + link to a collection or page.
Delete the extra demo slides (or hide them) until you’re ready to add your own. The hero shows the slides marked “enabled”.
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 groupAnnouncement barMessage. 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:
  1. Click the New arrivals section → Collection → pick your collection.
  2. Click the Category archive section → for each block, pick a collection.
  3. Click the Featured collection section (if added) → pick a collection.
If you don’t have these collections yet, create them in Products → Collections first. Smart collections (rule-based on tags) auto-update as you add products with matching tags. 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)
Edit each block to match your shop:
  • 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.
