How do I choose and install a theme for my store?
From the Theme Marketplace you can preview every theme and install the one you like in one click, without touching your products or orders.
In this article
Your theme is what shoppers see when they open your store: the colours, the home page layout and the way products and menus look. Changing the theme only changes the look — your products, categories, orders and customers stay exactly as they are.
Where do I find themes?
In the side menu, open the «القوالب والإضافات» (Themes & Add-ons) group and click «سوق القوالب» (Marketplace). The Theme Marketplace page lists every available theme as a card with a live preview and a price — either Free or the theme's price in EGP.
Cards can carry these badges:
- Active: the theme currently running on your store.
- Owned: a paid theme you already bought; you can install it at any time.
- New and Featured: labels set by the platform.
- Coming soon: a theme still in the works; it can't be installed or bought yet.
Use the "Search themes..." box or the category list to narrow things down, and the My themes button to show only the themes you bought plus your active one.
The buttons on each card
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| Preview | Opens a demo store using that theme in a new tab, filled with sample content (not your products). |
| Customize | Opens the theme editor with a preview of your store in that theme, so you can judge it with your own products. |
| Install | Makes this theme your store's look immediately. |
| Buy | Shown instead of Customize and Install on paid themes you haven't bought yet. |
Installing a theme step by step
- Open Marketplace from the side menu.
- Click Preview to see the general look, or Customize to see it with your products.
- When you've decided, click Install on that theme's card.
- You'll see "Process done successfully." and the button changes to Active. Open your store to see the new look.
Note: installing applies to your live store straight away, so any shopper browsing right now sees the new theme. Try the theme with Customize first.
Do I lose my edits if I switch themes?
No. Each theme keeps its own customizations (texts, section order, colours you picked in the editor). If you go back to an earlier theme, its edits are still there. Products, categories, banners and your logo are shared by all themes.
Common problems
- I can't see Marketplace in the menu: if you're a team member, the store owner needs to give you the store-settings permission.
- I edited in the editor but nothing changed: you most likely edited a theme that isn't the active one. See My design changes don't show on the store.
- The theme is paid: read How do I buy a paid theme?
