How Do I Add a Custom Template to Shopify?

Last updated on October 2, 2022 @ 3:34 am

There are two ways to add a custom template to Shopify. The first way is to use a third-party theme, and the second way is to use the Shopify Theme Store.

If you want to use a third-party theme, you can find many options on sites like Themeforest. Once you’ve found a theme you like, simply upload it to your Shopify account and activate it.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with Shopify’s coding language, Liquid, we recommend seeking help from a Shopify Expert before making any changes to your theme. Some customization requests can be made using Shopify’s Theme Settings, and do not require knowledge of code.

If you want to use the Shopify Theme Store, log in to your Shopify account and go to ‘Themes’. From there, click on the ‘Add New Theme’ button and select the ‘Upload Theme’ option.

Choose the ZIP file of your custom template and click ‘Open’. That’s it – your new template will be uploaded and ready to use!

No matter which method you choose, adding a custom template to Shopify is easy and only takes a few minutes. With a custom template, you can give your shop a unique look that will help it stand out from the competition.
