Styles
Page: Design >> Styles
A style contains all the information about the presentation of your Web site. This includes the definition of colours, images and fonts as well as the layout configuration and the distribution of functional elements on your Web page. You can create several styles for your Web site.
The table in the My Styles section lists the styles you have created for your Web site. A preview image is displayed for each style. The image shows the original layout of the template for this style. If you make changes to the style, these changes are not visible in the preview image in the table. As soon as a style is edited and the changes have been saved, the change is indicated by an icon (paintbrush) on the preview image. In addition, the date of the last change to the respective style is entered in the table.
The style that is set to Visible determines the appearance of the shop for your customers.
You can edit all the other styles without this having any effect on how the Web site is presented to your customer. This allows you to prepare and test additional styles. You can activate one of the other styles at any time. Click the Visible option button for the corresponding style.
You can edit a style using one of the following methods:
- Click the link Start Quick Design. This takes you to the page preview, where you can edit the basic style settings. For more information, see Quick Design, below.
- Click the link Start advanced design or click the preview image. This takes you to the page preview, where you can edit the style directly. All style editing functions and options are available. See also Design basics, above.
The View in the shop link allows you to see how your Web site would appear in this style.
Before making comprehensive changes to the style, you should first make a backup copy. To do so, click the link Create backup copy.
Save your entries by clicking Save.
You can create new styles by importing them from the templates or duplicating existing styles. For more information about importing, see
Templates,
below. You can duplicate styles using a batch processing command.
Note:
Deleting removes styles from the table. Standard styles can be imported in their original state from the Templates section.
