Configuration

Open Add-ons → Manage add-ons → Reel theme → Settings.

Setting Default Description
Sticky header On Keeps the pill header at the top while shoppers scroll (a hairline appears under it).
Mobile bottom bar On The floating dark bar on phones: Home, Search, “+” (quick shop sheet with the category circles and search), Saved (wish list) and Bag (opens the bag drawer).
“More” menu for long top menus On Menu items that do not fit into the header pill move into a “More” dropdown, so the header always stays one row.
Product card style Theme default Theme default (portrait tile on a gradient frame), Outlined, Plate or Minimal for stock product grids.
Show the second image on hover Off Stock product grids show the next product image when the pointer is over a card.
Product page layout Large gallery Large gallery = a big image frame with the buy card next to it (the card stays in view); Classic = the standard Responsive proportions.
Subtle animations On Reel stickers slide up when a reel comes into view, tiles zoom slightly on hover, the Bag pill bumps when its count changes. Visitors who prefer reduced motion never see animations.
Install the demo content when the theme is activated On When a storefront switches to this theme, the next admin page adds the mollo. demo store (categories with images, products with sizes, how-to steps and reviews, shade variations, promotions with real end dates, reels, routines, journal posts, a main menu; on Multi-Vendor four demo shops) and points the homepage blocks of the theme layout at it. Runs once per storefront (re-activating or upgrading adds nothing). Your own products, categories and pages are never changed. Turn it off before activating the theme to start with an empty design.
Setting Default Description
Size feature (unit price) RE_SIZE Code or ID of the product feature that holds the size (“30 ml”, “50 g”, “1 l”). Tiles show the size; reel stickers and product pages show the unit price (“$0.83 / ml”, per 100 ml or 100 g from 100). Sizes such as “5 × 25 ml” or “3-pack” show no unit price. Leave empty to hide both.
Routine step feature RE_STEP Code or ID of the product feature with the step name (“Cleanse”, “Treat”, “Moisturise”, “Protect”) shown above each product of the routine builder. Without it the steps read “Step 1”, “Step 2”…
How-to feature RE_HOW Code or ID of the text feature with the how-to steps, written as `Title: text
Free delivery from (amount) 35 The free-delivery progress in the bag drawer and the delivery line on product pages when the Free Shipping Progress Bar add-on is not installed (with that add-on, its own figure is shown in the bag). 0 = no progress bar.

Colours and fonts: Website → Themes → Theme editor (per style).

The licence status is shown in a License card at the top of the add-on page, above the tabs. The License tab holds the key itself. The key is stored once for the whole installation.

Setting Description
License key Your Kavio Labs licence key (KAVIO-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX, from My licenses on cs-cart.kaviolabs.com) or your CS-Cart Marketplace license number. If you entered the Marketplace number in Add-ons → Manage add-ons, leave this empty.
License status Points to the License card and explains what the check sends.

What the licence covers. The base domain you entered at purchase (for example example.com) and every subdomain of it. Local development hosts (localhost, private IP addresses, *.localhost, *.test, *.local, *.example, *.invalid) are always allowed. A store on a different base domain needs its own licence.

When it checks. When you save the key and then once a day, only in the admin panel or from cron, never while customers browse the storefront:

php /path/to/store/admin.php --dispatch=kv_theme_reel_license.check

What is sent. Only this, to https://cs-cart.kaviolabs.com: the licence key, the add-on ID and version, the host names of your storefronts, your CS-Cart version and edition, and a random one-time value. No customer, order or personal data. The answer is digitally signed.

What happens without a valid licence. A new installation works for 14 days without a key. If the licence server cannot be reached, the theme keeps working for 14 days after the first failed check. After that, or with an invalid, revoked or other-domain licence, the Reel design is switched off: the storefront shows the standard Responsive look (standard stylesheet and menu, the Reel homepage sections hidden; the colours of the active style stay). Cart, checkout, orders and customer accounts keep working; visitors see no message. The design is also switched off while the add-on is disabled or uninstalled.

While a storefront uses Reel and the design is switched off, every admin page shows a notice that names the theme, the reason and how to fix it, and Website → Themes shows the same text above the current theme.

Status (card) Colour Storefront

Grace period · N days left Amber Reel design for 14 days after the first failed check.

When your updates period ends, the theme keeps working; only updates and support stop. Licence information appears in the admin panel only, for administrators who may manage add-ons; vendors and customers never see it.
