Shopify Header with a product catalog

Hello, I recently purchased a Shopify template to create a store. I’m having trouble customizing the header. My goal is to add the ability to add categories or products to the profile header (as shown in the demo version of the template I purchased). I’m not quite sure how to do this. Could you suggest some solutions for this? I’ll send a screenshot from the demo below.

Hey! I’ve actually worked with a theme that had something similar in the header — those category or product dropdowns can be a bit tricky to figure out at first.

Just to double-check, are you trying to get the same setup that’s shown in your theme’s demo (like the menu items appearing under the profile icon)? Or are you hoping to add new links directly to the main header area?

If you can share the theme name and that demo screenshot, it’ll be easier to see how it’s structured. Some themes have that option tucked away in the customization settings, while others handle it differently

Hi there :waving_hand:

That’s a common issue when working with some paid themes the demo often shows dynamic menus that aren’t enabled by default after installation. You can try this:

  1. Go to Online Store → Navigation and create a new menu for your categories/products.

  2. Then in your Customize editor, open the Header section and look for a setting like “Menu” or “Main menu.”

  3. Assign the menu you created.

  4. If your theme doesn’t show that option, it might require a small code edit in the header.liquid file or enabling a “mega menu” block in Theme Settings.

If you’d like a quick walkthrough or help matching your header exactly like the demo, you can check my profile — I’ve added my WhatsApp link there for easier contact.

Hello and thank you for your reply.

Yes, I want to implement the same cases as in the template I purchased. The template is called Salt Yard (Ecommerce Website Templates - Free and Premium Themes for Your Online Store.)
