# Overview

Advanced Avante features: mega menu, transparent header, linked products, variant media, store selector, countdown timers, filters, and RTL support.

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.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

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

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

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

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

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.
