Collection list header

Topic summary

Goal: Show a list of collections/categories on hover over a product category in the store’s header navigation (illustrated by an attached screenshot).

Key concept: This is a “Mega Menu” (an expanded dropdown). Implementation typically requires either:

  • Custom Liquid code (Liquid = Shopify’s templating language). Likely needs a Shopify developer/expert to build and style the menu and images.
  • A third‑party app solution, e.g., Globo Mega Menu (can display collections with images) via app configuration.

Status: Guidance provided; no implementation or final decision recorded. The screenshot is central to understanding the desired layout/behavior. Unanswered: which approach the store will adopt and any theme-specific constraints or costs.
