Theme Editor - Store selection sidebar

The Store selection sidebar panel configures the slide-out sidebar that appears on storefronts with multiple locations. Customers use this sidebar to browse stores, read descriptions, and select a pickup location.

How store selection works

Store selection lets customers choose which Location they order from. It appears in two places: a button in the top bar and a dedicated selector on the cart page. Both open the same configurable sidebar.

​

Top bar

The storefront top bar renders a store selector button on the right side. Clicking it opens the store selection sidebar where customers browse all active locations and pick one. The top bar is visible on all storefront pages except checkout and link pages. Once a customer selects a store, the button displays the store name. The selection persists across page navigations and browser sessions.

​

Cart page

The cart page shows a store selector with per-store availability feedback. Before checkout, the selector indicates how many stores can fulfill the current cart contents:

• “Available in N stores” — the cart’s items are in stock at N locations for the selected dates.
• “Not available in any store” — no location can fulfill the entire cart.

When the customer opens the sidebar from the cart, each store entry shows “Cart available” or “Cart unavailable” based on whether that location has sufficient stock for every item in the cart. This check considers both eligibility and real-time stock levels — a store can be eligible for a listing but still show as unavailable if it lacks stock for the selected dates or quantities. A store must be selected before the customer can proceed to checkout. The selected location determines which checkout configuration is used.

​

What store selection controls

Selecting a store scopes the customer’s experience:

​

Sidebar content

When a customer opens the store selector, they see a list of all active locations. Each store entry shows the store’s name, address, and today’s opening hours — these fields are fixed and not configurable. The image, description, phone, email, and opening-hours toggles apply to the individual Store page, not to the sidebar. The sidebar title and description let you add context above the store list, such as “Choose your nearest location” or instructions for selecting a pickup point. Both the title and description are translatable — manage translations under Settings > Translations.
