Sample disclosure

Clear about what this work represents

01

02

Intervention summary

One agreed problem, corrected within one defined boundary

The mobile product-page header appeared empty when the page first opened. Navigation controls became visible only after the visitor scrolled.

Scope
Approved
Correction
Completed
Quality gate
Pass
Publication
Not published

The agreed result was simple: the header and its navigation controls had to remain visible and usable before any scroll on a representative mobile viewport.

The corrected state met that result in theme previews and on a physical iPhone 13. A focused desktop check found no observed change to the desktop header.

Intervention SC-002

Mobile product-page header invisible before scroll

Before

The opening state did not provide a usable header

The issue was reproduced on representative mobile product pages in the controlled Before theme. The header controls appeared after the page moved.

After

The controls remained visible before and after scroll

On the physical iPhone 13, the menu, search, logo, account and cart controls were visible and usable in both states.

The corrected theme remains unpublished. Publication is a separate action and still requires Bruno's express written approval.

Change boundary

The correction stayed small and isolated

A responsive CSS rule was added to one stylesheet in one unpublished working copy. It applies only to product pages at mobile widths.

  • One theme copy changed.
  • One CSS asset changed.
  • No external dependencies added.
  • No unrelated findings included.
  • No code copied from the Horizon 4.1.4 evaluation draft or another theme.

Quality verification

Five checks passed within the approved scope

The correction was not marked ready for review until the agreed result, technical change, related path, compatibility and delivery record had been checked.

Clear limits

What this focused intervention does not claim

The physical iPhone 13 check covered the Oakland Merino Crew product page. Theme previews covered three representative product pages.

The desktop check was limited to the header at 1280 × 720. This was not a complete Store, application, checkout, SEO, accessibility or security retest.

No commercial result, conversion improvement or compliance outcome is guaranteed. The live Store was not changed.
