  • The demo has 30 products in 22 categories (two levels), with a search-first header and a category menu.
  • The quick order list, bulk / case prices and trade account tiers are static sections. Trade prices per customer, minimum quantities and trade accounts need a B2B / wholesale plugin.
  • Import your real catalogue with Products → Import (CSV) once the design is set.

AI kit (Pro Unlimited)

With the AI kit an assistant can set up your departments and mega menu, write part descriptions with part numbers, specifications and your fitment data, and rebrand the store in theme.json without breaking the block markup. It follows rules that keep fitment, B2B and core-charge plugin notes and sample labels in place until you confirm the facts.

Example prompt: Set up this LT Axle store for my parts business "Northgate Motor Factors" (sample): departments Brakes, Filters, Lighting, Oils & fluids, Tools and Batteries, one branch at 12 Station Road open Mon–Sat 8:00–17:30, click & collect from 8:00 when ordered by 16:00, free delivery over $50, 30-day returns. Use the Fleet Blue style with my brand colour #1C4E9C, update the department cards and mega menu, and write the trade tiers for workshops and fleets.

See AI kit for the files, the prompts and the Abilities.

Questions about LT Axle

Does the vehicle finder work out of the box?

No. The finder in the hero is a static form that shows the design. To filter parts by year, make and model you need a vehicle fitment plugin for WooCommerce; the theme then gives it a matching look.

How do part numbers show on the cards?

The theme places WooCommerce's Product SKU block on every product card and on the product page, styled as a part-number tag. Enter your part number in the SKU field of each product.

Can workshops get their own trade prices?

The Trade account page and the tier, quick order and bulk price sections show how a trade counter works. Trade price lists, payment terms and ordering by part number need a WooCommerce B2B or quick-order plugin.

How are the departments and the mega menu set up?

The demo has ten top-level product categories (departments) with sub-categories under six of them. The first item of the header menu holds them and opens as a five-column panel on desktop.

Does the theme include real car makes or part brands?

No. The demo uses generic vehicles such as "Hatchback A" and generic sample brand marks. Add real makes and logos only where you have the right to use them.

Can I use it for tools, van or motorbike parts?

Yes. Rename the departments, fitment table and finder fields; the large-catalogue sections work for any parts or spares store.
