Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 12:59 am

Customization is key to having a successful BigCommerce theme, as it allows you to tailor the theme to your specific needs. This can include changing the color scheme, adding custom content, and more.

When customizing your theme, be sure to keep the following in mind:

1. The overall design of the theme should be kept in mind.

Changes that are too drastic can ruin the overall look and feel of the theme, and may not be compatible with other features of the theme.

2. Theme options and settings should be easy to find and navigate.

Customizing your theme can be time-consuming, so make sure the options are easy to use and understand.

PRO TIP: Please be aware that customizing your BigCommerce theme can be complex and may require code changes. If you are not comfortable making code changes, we recommend hiring a BigCommerce Partner to help you.

3. Theme files should be organized in a logical manner.

Making changes to theme files can be confusing, so make sure the files are organized in a way that is easy to follow.

4. Theme files should be edited using a text editor, such as Notepad.

Using a text editor will make it easier to make changes to the files, and will also allow you to save your changes as you make them.

When customizing your BigCommerce theme, be sure to keep these tips in mind to ensure a successful outcome.
