How Do I Preview My Shopify Theme?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 6:56 pm

If you’re wondering how to preview your Shopify theme, never fear! It’s actually quite simple, and there are a few different ways you can do it.

One way is to use the Shopify Theme Store. When you find a theme that you like, there will be a “Preview” button that you can click on. This will take you to a preview of the theme, where you can see how it would look on your own store.

Another way to preview a theme is to install it on your own store. You can do this by going to the “Themes” section of your Shopify admin, and then clicking on the “Add New Theme” button.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with HTML and CSS, we recommend that you hire a Shopify Expert to help you preview your theme.

From there, you can select the “Upload Theme” option and upload the theme file that you’ve downloaded. Once it’s installed, you’ll be able to activate it and see how it looks on your store.

Finally, if you want to get a really good idea of how a theme looks and functions, you can always create a test store. This is a temporary store that you can use to try out different themes without affecting your live store. To do this, just go to the “Test Stores” section of your Shopify admin and click on the “Create Test Store” button.

So there you have it! Three different ways that you can preview Shopify themes.

So what are you waiting for? Start exploring those themes!
