Reduce space between sections in dawn theme

Topic summary

A user is seeking help to remove spacing between all sections in the Dawn theme, noting this has been an ongoing frustration that they’ve previously worked around by using white backgrounds.

Current Status:

  • The store is password-protected, preventing helpers from reviewing the issue directly
  • Multiple users have requested the store URL and password to investigate

Proposed Solutions:

Official Shopify Response:

  • Dawn theme doesn’t support spacing reduction through the Theme Editor interface
  • Two options available:
    1. Custom code modifications to the theme
    2. Free design time service (since Dawn is Shopify-supported) where internal team makes changes after store owner verification via Contact Us page

Community Suggestions:

  • Theme may have section top/bottom spacing settings that need checking
  • Custom coding adjustments possible but require store access to implement

Next Steps:
User needs to share store password or contact Shopify Support directly to proceed with either solution.

Hey @Jaskoandlo .

Thanks for reaching out.

I appreciate that you have let us know which theme you are using as that is very helpful! Looking into the Dawn theme, I noticed that removing/reducing the spaces between the sections is not available using the Theme Editor. However, I can definitely see the benefit of allowing you to reduce the spaces between sections on your online store so I am going to provide this as a suggestion to our developers.

With that being said, you could potentially reduce the spaces by changing the coding of the theme to have it displayed as you would like. Since the Dawn theme is designed and supported by Shopify, we can use free design time for Shopify themes to have our internal team make the changes on your behalf.

If you are interested in using the design time, you will need to login to your store using the Contact Us page. This will allow us to securely verify you as the store owner before speaking with a Support Advisor about the changes you would like to see.

Let me know if you have any questions.

@Jaskoandlo
