Use the website editor
The website editor is where you design your store. You see your page in the middle, a panel of tools on the right, and a top bar for saving and switching views. Everything is drag and drop: add a section, place elements inside it, and move them until the page looks right.
Open the website editor
- Go to your admin panel.
- Click Edit Site in the top bar, or Edit Website on the Home page.
The top bar
- The exit icon on the far left takes you back to the Admin Panel. It saves first.
- Next to your site name are Undo and Redo.
- In the middle, the page switcher shows which page you are editing. Click it to jump to another page.
- On the right, the paintbrush opens Site Styles for colors and fonts.
- The phone icon switches between Desktop view and Mobile view.
- Save stores your work. It shows Saving, then Saved.
The panel on the right
The + tab opens Insert, your library of sections such as Text, Gallery, Product and Categories. The second tab opens Pages, where you add, rename and hide pages.
A Customize tab appears when you select a smart section, like Smart Products. It holds that section's settings.
Editing on the page
Click a section to select it. A small toolbar appears with Layers, + ADD BLOCK and Block Settings. ADD BLOCK opens Add Element, where you add text, images, buttons and more.
Drag elements to move them and pull the handles to resize. Guide lines help you line things up.
Right-click a section for Move up, Move down, Delete and Hide on Mobile or Hide on Desktop.
Saving and shortcuts
The editor saves a moment after each change. If the button says You have unsaved changes when you hover it, click Save. If it shows Retry, check your connection and click it again.
Shortcuts: Ctrl+Z to undo, Ctrl+Shift+Z or Ctrl+Y to redo, Ctrl+D to duplicate a section, Ctrl+Up or Ctrl+Down to move it, and Esc to deselect. On a Mac, use Cmd.
Careful: pressing Delete or Backspace removes the whole selected section. Press Ctrl+Z straight away if that happens.
