Section Groups

Online Store 2.0 section groups let merchants edit the header and footer in the theme editor like any other section. Citera has two, both rendered from layout/theme.liquid.

header-group.json

Rendered via {% sections 'header-group' %}. Contains:

• announcement-bar — dismissible top message with optional end date/time, color scheme and uppercase toggle.
• header — logo, desktop menu (with mega-dropdown support), mobile drawer nav, and the search / account / cart icons.

footer-group.json

Rendered via {% sections 'footer-group' %}. Contains:

• footer — link columns (via menu blocks), an about text block, and an optional payment-icons row.

Editing them

These are JSON files, but you rarely edit them by hand — open the theme editor and pick Header or Footer from the section-group dropdown at the top of the page. Changes save back into these files (and into config/settings_data.json for values).

See the individual sections under Sections → Global for their full settings and blocks.
