Welcome to Reign

Reign is a premium Shopify theme. Its look is built on three ideas: parallax (background images that drift as you scroll), glass surfaces (rounded panels with a soft blur, used behind the header and over product images), and generous rounded corners. This article orients you: what you get, how a Reign store is put together, and where to find the rest of the help center.

The Reign storefront home page

What you get

Reign ships with several presets (Reign, Apex, Canvas, Harvest, and Freedom). Each one is a complete starting look (colors, fonts, homepage layout, and sample content) for a different kind of store. You pick one as your foundation, then swap in your own products, images, and copy. See Install Reign and choose a preset.

How a Reign store is built

You build pages from sections, and most sections hold blocks that you add and arrange in the theme editor. Reign styles all of it with its parallax, glass, and rounded look. Store-wide options (colors, fonts, logo, cart, and more) live under Theme settings, and apply to every page at once.

To open the editor, see Theme editor basics.

For how sections, blocks, and groups fit together, read Sections, blocks, and groups. For the controls that repeat across most sections (color, spacing, layout, visibility), read Common section settings. For a tour of the editor and the Theme settings panels, read Theme editor basics.

How this help center is organized

The help center is grouped so you can find help for the task in front of you:

Getting started: orientation articles like this one, installing Reign, and updating to a new version.
Page building: how sections, blocks, and groups work, and the common settings they share.
Theme settings: one article per store-wide panel, covering every control in it.
Sections: how to add and configure each section you can drop onto a page.
Header and footer: the navigation, top bar, and footer that show on every page.
Product pages, Collections and search, Cart, Blog and pages: the storefront areas your shoppers move through.
Troubleshooting: fixes for common snags.

Tips

Start from a preset rather than a blank theme. It sets your colors, fonts, and layout for you, and every part stays editable afterward.
Theme settings are store-wide. To change one page only, edit that page's section instead of the Theme settings panel.
