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.
