Shopify. How to change theme colors

You can alter colors that are used for different elements and text blocks of your theme directly via your Shopify admin panel. Let us show you how that can be done.

  1. For example, let’s change pink color of the current theme. At the moment this color is used for the area around the cart button in header, for logo text, etc.:

  2. First of all, inspect the element with Firebug developer tool to find the exact value of the color you want to change:

  3. Remember this value or copy it to any text document, as you will need it later:
