What is a theme?
A theme is the design of your shop's pages. In the panel, all of them are called by one word: "theme".

Folder layout of the zip file
The theme zip must contain a few required files and only the allowed folders. This page shows where each file goes.
Sections, blocks and settings
Every page is built from sections. A section can have blocks. Sections and blocks have settings that you use to set colors, text and images.
Upload checks and error messages
The system runs several checks when you upload a theme. You see each error message here, with the next step to fix it.
Permission to use a theme
With every upload you must tick "I have permission to use this theme". The tick is saved with your name and the time. The shop owner is responsible for using the theme.
Building a theme from a site address
Only Awix staff build a theme from a site address, with an internal tool. You do not upload any file for this.
Publishing a theme and choosing it for the shop
Every shop has its own theme library: one live theme and several drafts. Draft changes are not visible to customers until you publish.
Theme card images
Every theme in the gallery has two images, one for desktop and one for mobile. If the zip file contains these two images, they are made from a render of the theme's home page.
