Getting started with the v5 page editor

By jnunez on July 17, 2026July 17, 2026

The page editor (also called the Theme Editor) is a visual tool for building and styling your storefront pages — the hero banner, product sections, text, layout, and colours — without touching code. You edit on a live preview and nothing goes live until you save.

Opening the editor

Go to your storefront and click the small grid icon in the top-left corner of the page (its tooltip reads “Theme Editor”). The editor opens over your live site.

The page editor layout — structure panel, live preview, and settings

The layout

  • Left panel — the page’s structure: its sections grouped into Header, Main, and Footer. A summary line shows how many sections and blocks the page has.
  • Centre — a live preview of the page (the canvas).
  • Right panel — two tabs: Page (settings for the whole page) and Selection (the properties of whatever section or block you click).
  • Top bar — the store selector, page selector, undo / redo, device preview, Links Off, Save, Discard Changes, and Exit.

The top bar controls

  • Store & page selectors — choose which store (for example, your B2B store) and which page you’re editing.
  • Device preview — switch between desktop, tablet, and mobile to see how the page looks on each.
  • Links Off — keeps links from navigating while you edit, so clicking selects an element instead of following the link.
  • Save publishes your changes, Discard Changes throws away the current draft, and Exit leaves the editor.
