Primavera's default collection template is composed of two sections:
### Collection header
Collection header is used on the collection pages to output a section header for a collection.
This section will display the collection name, the item count (if text accents are enabled globally) and the collection image as an optional banner image.
#### Collection header settings
* **Background:** Choose between **color scheme** or **image** to display a background image in this section. By default, this will use the collection’s image, but you can override it to use a static image, or an image from a metafield.
* **Minimum header height:** Choose between 5 different heights, **adapt to media**, **small**, **medium, large** and **fit screen** to achieve your desired look and feel.
* **Description:** You have the option to choose to display the collection description as set in the **admin**, or no description at all.
* **Desktop header layout:** You can choose between a **left-aligned** or **centered** header layout.
* **Show submenu:** To show an optional submenu, [create a menu](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/menus-and-links/editing-menus) with the same name (i.e. handle) as the collection and enable this checkbox. This can help group related collections in a store with many diferent collections.\
\
Submenus are matched up to a collection based on their handles. For example, to add a submenu to a **Shop All** collection, with handle **shop-all**, create a menu called "Shop All" so it also has the **shop-all** handle.
### Collection grid
The collection grid is the main body of the collection template, comprising the products themselves and filtering/sorting when enabled.
* **Layout:**
* **Maximum products to show**: Number of products per page. To maintain a balanced layout, consider the number of columns chosen for both desktop and mobile views.
* **Desktop columns**
* **Mobile columns**
* **Enable infinite scroll:** When enabled, a "Load more" button appears below the maximum products per page, inviting users to reveal more products.
* **Empty collection link:** When there are no products in a collection, a Continue shopping button can be displayed.
* **Sorting and filtering:**
* **Enable sorting**
* **Enable filtering**
* **Filter layout:** Choose between **modal** (default) and **sidebar** Available in version 1.1.0 and later
* **Enable sticky filters:** When enabled, collection filters will remain visible as users scroll. To improve the user experience, this disables the [sticky header](https://docs.ultramarinastudios.com/sections/header#settings).
* **Enable max height on filters:** Limits the height of each filter to make scrollable windows, useful if your store has many filters.
* **Open filters by default:** Choose whether filter collapsibles should be open or closed on page load Available in version 1.1.0 and later
* **Active filter style:** When sidebar layout is selected, choose the style of the active filters Available in version 1.1.0 and later
