Changelog

New versions of Kyoto arrive through Shopify's standard theme update: in Online Store > Themes, Kyoto shows an update notice, and the new version is added to your theme library as a copy. Your published theme stays as it is until you publish the new version. See How do I update Kyoto?

Each entry lists what changed for merchants. Settings that were added, renamed or moved are named as they appear in the theme editor.
