# Overview

Beyond the basic setup, Avante includes a set of advanced features that make a storefront feel custom-built — mega menus, transparent navigation, variant-aware product media, countdown timers, and multi-location pickup. Most of them take a few minutes to configure; some use Shopify metafields, and each guide walks through the exact steps.

If a feature relies on a metafield (Linked Products, Product subtitle, Product badges), the guide shows how to create it once in **Shopify Admin → Settings → Metafields** — after that it's just filling in values per product.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://staylime.com/docs/avante-themes/features-and-advanced-setup/overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
