How can I customize the Dawn theme on my eCommerce site?

Topic summary

Customizing the Shopify Dawn theme’s header and UI elements, with several items already resolved and two still pending.

Fixed updates:

  • “Sale” badge color changed from blue to a preferred color.
  • Logo aligned to the center of the header.
  • Menu consolidated so buttons aren’t all displayed in the header, aiming for a style similar to Hermes.

Open questions:

  • Reposition the search bar from the right to the left and add a text area within the header.
  • Change the order of the “fairy” and “basket” symbols (desired: fairy on the right, basket on the left).

References:

  • A preview link of the store was shared; an external site (Hermes) was cited as a design example.

Responses and outcomes:

  • One partner offered professional assistance via Shopify Experts, without technical steps included.
  • Partial resolution achieved by the original poster; no concrete solutions provided for the two remaining items. Discussion remains open.

  3. How can I move the search bar to be from the right side to the left and is it possible to add an area for writing already in the header?

  4. How do I create a menu for my buttons instead of having all the buttons in my header? Like this: https://www.hermes.com/no/en/ (FIXED)
