Choose and change your theme

Your theme decides how your store looks to customers. You add a theme to your library, preview it, then publish it when you are happy. Customers only see the current theme.

Changing your theme does not touch your products, orders or content pages. The old theme moves to your library, so you can switch back at any time.

Open the themes page

1. In the sidebar, under Sales channels, click Online Store.

The page has three parts. At the top is your current theme, then the Theme library, and last the Theme store. Customers cannot see the themes in your library. The theme library only shows when you have a theme that is not published.

On a phone, tap the menu icon in the top left corner to open the sidebar.

Add a theme to your library

If the theme you want is not in your library yet, add it from the Theme store.

1. Scroll down to Theme store.
2. On the theme you want, click Add.

The new theme shows in your Theme library. Nothing changes in your store. See Add a theme from the Theme store.

Preview a theme

1. In the Theme library, click the three dots at the end of the theme’s row.
2. Select Preview.

The preview opens in a new tab. If your browser blocks pop-ups, allow them and click again.

To change colors, images or menus before you publish, click Customize on that row. See Use the theme editor.

Publish a theme

1. On the theme’s row in the Theme library, click Publish.
2. In the Publish this theme? box, click Publish.

The theme you just published moves to the top of the page. The old theme moves to the Theme library.

Switch back to your old theme

1. In the Theme library, find the theme you used before.
2. Click Publish on that row.
3. In the Publish this theme? box, click Publish.

Delete a theme you do not use

You cannot delete the current theme. To delete it, publish another theme first.

1. In the Theme library, click the three dots at the end of the theme’s row.
2. Select Delete.
3. In the Delete this theme? box, click Delete.
