Fresh install, theme looks broken

[mik3y]

Steps:

1. Created new developer store in shopify developer console.
2. Added a 2-3 fake products, added to "Frontpage" collection.
3. Viewed store in default theme, looked as expected (homepage shows featured products; navbar has "home", "about us", etc).
4. Generated config.yml
5. grunt && theme upload
6. Upload succeeds, theme shown below.

Expected results: Bootstrappy navbar with same pages; same products are shown on home page.

Actual results:

Store URL: https://app-test-store-4.myshopify.com

(It's a test store, I'm happy to share access if it would help). Thanks!

Hm, probably my error: Appears uploading the theme resets a bunch of settings. Perhaps this is unique to dev stores. Closing!

Monkeying with settings, things almost look right, except:

• I get two nav bars.
• The "show cart" contents are obscured.

I'm guessing this still has something to do with the site's theme settings. Is there a way to zap the site's theme settings to nominal? Failing that, any hints on how to merge the navbars?

Hey @mik3y

If you have an empty or no config/settings_data.json running a theme replace will wipe all your settings. Otherwise you can delete the contents of the settings_data.json in the template editor in Shopify's backend.

A theme with no settings at all looks pretty sad, but we are working on a preset that give a base/default to work from.

Also are you still having issues with the navbars?

Thanks for following up!

Ah yeah, that'd be pretty cool.

Nope, managed to toggle my way out of this: in theme Navigation settings, disable the "main" navbar and show the "top" navbar.

Cool.

I guess I'll leave this open till we have done the base preset.
