Theme editor basics

LuminOS is an Online Store 2.0 theme: most pages are built from sections and nested blocks.

Sections vs blocks

  • Sections — full-width (or page-width) units you add to a template (hero, FAQ, product information, Lumin Meta Reviews).
  • Blocks — pieces inside a section (text, buttons, quantity breaks, review stars).
Use Add section / Add block in the left sidebar of the theme editor.

Templates

Each template (home, product, collection, page, cart) has its own section stack. Switching templates on a product or page in Admin changes which stack merchants see. Useful LuminOS templates include product presets and page templates such as bundle, changelog, and theme features.

Overlay group

Email popup and cart drawer live in the overlay / app-like layer (header-adjacent groups), not as ordinary page sections. Look for: Edits there apply storewide.

Lumin sections builder

The Lumin sections section is a flexible wrapper for composing content blocks quickly on landing pages. Prefer dedicated feature sections (bundle builder, Meta Reviews, FAQ) when you need those behaviors.

Apps and data

Some blocks expect Shopify data:
