Changelog

Added

• New top-nav app shell — settings is one long page instead of a canvas + drawer
• Live storefront preview as a sticky companion rail with mobile/tablet/desktop toggle
• Expand the preview to 1:1 in any device width
• "On this page" jump-list for fast navigation between sections

Improved

• Whole admin re-anchored in honeybound's brand (warm cream + honey accent, Pangram Sans)
• Five focused settings sections instead of seven overlapping ones
• One path to every field (the inspector + globals drawer split is gone)
• Small screens now collapse the preview into a clean "Show preview" button

Fixed

• Save bar dropping edits across multiple subforms in the same section

Improved

• Globals drawer now slides in instead of snapping
• Cleaner panel stacking — opening "More options" closes the inspector instead of layering it underneath
• Discard now confirms before throwing away unsaved changes
• Browser warns before you navigate away with unsaved settings

Fixed

• Save bar silently dropped failed saves; now flags the failed sections and keeps them dirty so you can retry
• Demo catalog fallback no longer flashes the filter tree off-screen during fresh-install backfill

Added

• Direct-manipulation editing — click any element on the preview to edit just the settings that affect it
• Global settings drawer (⚙) for non-visual config like currency, custom CSS, and search behavior
• Demo product set on the preview during fresh-install catalog sync, so the canvas is never empty

Improved

• Settings preview now renders inside the admin instead of through an iframe — works on every store, including pre-launch ones with password protection
• Preview updates instantly while you edit
• Filter-tree edits (add option, reorder values, etc.) now refresh the preview live

Fixed

• Preview blocked on stores with storefront password protection
• Save button stayed dead after some edits
• Filter-tree preview wasn't reacting to CRUD changes

Added

• Live storefront preview on the settings page — see edits in the actual store before saving
• Live preview on the filter trees editor too
• Auto-detects your theme's colors, fonts, and shape on install
• "Re-scan theme" button to pick up theme changes after install
• Curated explanations for non-obvious settings

Improved

• Settings page redesigned with a collapsible side panel and no layout jump
• Save without losing your scroll position; multi-section saves run in parallel
• Badges editor is now inline in settings (one less page to click into)

Fixed

• The old floating preview panel that overlapped form inputs

Added

Improved
