Filtering - Kalles Theme

Topic summary

A user seeks help customizing the filtering functionality in the Kalles Shopify theme. They want to:

  • Move filters to the left side
  • Change the filter styling
  • Add color swatches (already configured as metafields)

Current Progress:

  • One responder provided CSS code to reposition filters to the left, which successfully worked
  • The code targets .t4s-collection-header>:last-child with justify-content: flex-start

Outstanding Request:

The user now wants the filters to display as a persistent sidebar (always visible) with the main collection content positioned to the right, similar to a reference image they shared. They’re asking whether this layout is achievable or if it’s a theme limitation.

Status: The discussion remains open, awaiting guidance on implementing the sidebar layout and color swatch integration (which may require developer assistance).

Hi, is anyone to help me improve the filtering on this Kalles theme, please? I’d like to move it to the left hand side, change the style, and add colour swatches (I have them set up as metafields and live on products).

Hi @joe-h-95 ,

Could you please share your Store URL and password (if applicable) so that I can review it and provide you with the appropriate solution code?

Looking forward to your response.

Hi @joe-h-95

To change the filter on the left check this one below.

  1. From your Shopify admin dashboard, click on “Online Store” and then “Themes”.
  2. Find the theme that you want to edit and click on “Actions” and then “Edit code”.
  3. In the “Assets” folder, click on “base.css, style.css or theme.css” file, depending on which file your theme uses to store its CSS styles. At the bottom of the file, add the following CSS code:
.t4s-collection-header>:last-child {
    justify-content: flex-start !important;
}

Thanks @Made4uo-Ribe , that moved it to the left.

Do you know how to make it more like the below i.e. constantly there with the main collection to the right? Or is it a theme limitation?
