Show vendor: Whether to show the vendor in each product card above the product title.

Show stock status: Whether to show the stock status of each product.

Layout

Desktop layout: With the “Grid” option you can create a typical grid layout of products. A “Slider” option is also available that lets you create a simple slider layout. For this to work, the number of products selected plus the collection card (if enabled) in this section must be greater than the number of products visible as set by the following setting Number of columns on desktop.

Number of columns on desktop: Sets the number of columns (3 or 4).

Stack on mobile: By default, Athens will try to create a flexible scrollable horizontal list of products on mobile. If you prefer to create a vertical list of products though, simply enable this option.

Colors

Color scheme: Select one of the predefined color schemes as defined in Theme settings > Colors. For more information regarding the color schemes please refer to our article about creating your own color scheme.

Section spacing

The section spacing settings gives you the option to adjust the top & bottom section spacing values. Please note: If you select a color scheme with a background color, these settings will affect the spacing between the top or bottom of the section and the content of the section.
