# About v7.0 release

This release is a major step forward: a top-to-bottom design modernization, four brand-new presets alongside a full overhaul of the Modular preset, and a wide set of new sections, blocks, and settings that give you more ways to merchandise, highlight, and style your store.

> **⚠️ Important - action required when upgrading** If you're updating from a previous version, you'll need to **reset your color and typography settings**. The new palettes and type system replace the old ones, so existing settings won't carry over cleanly.

### A modernized design

The whole theme has been redesigned with a cleaner, more contemporary feel. That includes refreshed product cards, a new icon set, faster animations, and an updated slider — small changes that add up to a noticeably more polished store.

### New presets

Five distinct starting points, so you can launch a look that fits your brand out of the box.

**Sparkling, Pattern, Companion, and Kiln** join the lineup as brand-new presets — and the flagship **Modular** preset has been completely restyled.

### New blocks

#### Product form blocks

The product form has been removed, but replaced with individual elements for better customizability.

Two new blocks for your product pages: an **Icon block** for visual callouts, and an **Accordion block** for tidy, collapsible details like sizing, care, or shipping info.

#### Marquee Image and Icon blocks

The Marquee section now supports **Image** and **Icon** blocks, so your scrolling banners can do more than text.
