Volt theme

What it is

Volt is a storefront theme for consumer-electronics retailers, chains and electronics marketplaces with phones, laptops, TV and audio, gaming, cameras, smart home and accessories, on CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor.

Four styles change more than the accent: Daylight (warm white and burnt orange), Signal (yellow and red retail energy), Ember (warm graphite) and Carbon (near-black and cyan).

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.

Built for selling

Volt helps shoppers decide without leaving the store:

• Spec meters against the category range on every card
• Saving pill and monthly price next to every price
• Compare toggles and a compare tray on every page
• Head to head bars with the winner lit
• Countdowns only for real promotion end dates
• Category icon bar with brands and a top deal per category
• Text contrast of at least 4.5:1 in every style
• Twelve settings, finished look out of the box

How it works

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

Specs are product features of the type Number: they become meters, callouts and versus rows. Deals come from catalog promotions. Edit the sections in the Block Manager.
