Folio theme

What it is

Folio is a storefront theme for independent bookshops, chains with a web shop, stationers and office-supply stores, single brand or Multi-Vendor marketplaces with publishers and makers.

Four styles: Library (ivory paper, library green and walnut shelves), Stationer (white, pen blue and highlighter yellow), Lamplight (a dark reading room with brass) and Kraft (kraft paper, oxblood and stitched shelves).

Four styles, one theme

Each style changes the ground, bands, type weight and card treatment, not only the accent colour. Open any of them in the live demo.

How it works

Install the package in Add-ons: it adds the Folio theme without touching your storefront. Activate Folio in Website, Themes and pick a style. The next admin page adds the demo store, so every section is filled at once.

Authors, publishers, series, formats, reading ages and ISBNs are product features; formats and pack sizes for sale are normal product options and bulk prices are quantity discounts. Look inside uses the product images.
