Covent Garden 2.8.0 includes a number of new features and enhancements to improve what is already in place, making Covent a great choice for vendors in 2023.
What's included now on Covent Garden
System fonts
Using the system font of a specific operating system can improve performance because the browser does not need to download any font files because it is already using one.
Taggbox Instagram feed
An alternative to the Elfsight Instagram Feed module that we have set up to work on our theme is Taggbox. They also offer free and premium versions, which you can sign up for here.
Alert colors
We've provided an option to change the colors of your alerts to suit your store's style. Warning! We'd still recommend the traffic light system (red, orange, green).
New style editor
The style editor now has a stripped back look but still includes all the same features that makes Kings Road what it is.
In addition to these new functionality updates we've fixed plenty of display bugs, for a full list see the changelog.
