Hi @dannyleflem ,
Thank you for reaching out to the Community! I’d be happy to provide some assistance with locating a theme, to ensure this gets resolved.
To share some insight, the Boundless Theme has since been depreciated from the Shopify Theme Store. While I can certainly understand the impact here, I’d encourage you to check out the Dawn Theme as an alternative. It’s a great minimalist theme that offers various features and customizations.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

So We have paid for the Boundless theme. Maybe 5 years ago $400 or more. ANd now it is discontinued? It does not work correctly and I’m sure it needs upgrading. So that means we must purchase new themes every 4-5 years!?
