Customizing a Wix template can be a daunting task, but with a little bit of know-how, it’s not too hard. If you’re looking to make a significant change to a template, it’s best to start by creating a new template from scratch.
However, if you just want to tweak a specific element or add a new one, there are a few things you can do.
