OMG thank you!! Even though this is an older tutorial by now (2020), it is still the most helpful ones I've found. I spent all of yesterday using Debut and had no idea how to delete sections or how to move the positions. Thanks again!
Thanks for taking the time to go step-by-step with explanations. Others I've view leave me confused. Their cursor is like a little flit fly darting here and there and everywhere without why and where they are going. I like your style Miss Elle. Hat's off to y'all.
Great easy to follow video, unlike many I've seen with fly-by click and go that is just moving too quickly to follow. Your video makes me feel like I got something accomplished. Thank you so much.
Thank u so much l and question were did u add ur about us and blog plz can u make a video showing us please. And also how to had a background image on website I’m using the same theme us u.
This was so helpful! I've only ever designed squarespace sites and recently began to think about offering larger clients the option of shopify or squarespace, although I'd have a ton of learning to do first this at least lets me know the two aren't that different as far as the drag and drop goes. Thank you!
Glad the video was helpful Jennifer and we love working with the Shopify platform! It is kinda similar though to setting up a Squarespace site so you will start seeing some crossover elements if you decide to also start designing for Shopify.
I'm so excited to create my website ! I am only 19 years old, with a very promising future with my own business, I've been so passionate about everything that I'm ready to tie everything up and design and finalise my website !
I absolutely love your content and have learned so much already! Soooo I have a question .. The mobile layout of my theme (Minimal) doesnt look right everything is all over the place :( I have tried everything ... Do you have a video that covers this ? If not can you suggest a resource I can watch or reach out to in order to fix this? Thank you
Wow, so much easier than what I was just doing in reality. Hats the one negative with Shopify so far is that there is very little by way of guidance on the website when setting up. I selected a free template and my set up does not look anything like what she just showed. I may just try it using the Debut theme instead. Thanks a bunch!
Glad that you found the tutorial helpful and yes you are correct that every Shopify theme is very different in it's explanation of how to edit it. You can always also look at the theme creator's website to see if they have any documentation there as well.
Hi Elle ! It´s really easy to understand, in this video in particular, how to customize the themes in Shopify, thanks ! I just have a question ... What if I want to show a picture on my desktop home page and a different one in mobile home page ? How can I do that ? Thanks in advance !
Hi thanks for useful tutorials I am a big fan, I wanted to ask, why when I download the theme supply blue for my petshop it has only 2 features on menu box, which is much more in demo one on the store? Is it because we have to all by ourselves or we can't have all features if it is free? thanks for quick answer.
Hello, Firstly, thank you for the detailed and easy to understand tutorial. Some of us need that. LOL Now, for my question. This theme doesn't tell one, the dimensions of the image, and since you already had one to upload, we are kind of left in the dark as to the size of the image. I like to make my own, and if I have the width and length pixels, I can make one.
Hi thebizlady, every theme will have different sizes but the key to remember when creating images for the slideshow is to get them all the exact same size so the slideshow doesn't bounce around a lot. However in the Debut theme I'm using in this tutorial the image size for the slideshow is 1280px x 427px.
Thank you for the dimensions.. I was using Brooklyn Theme, but there isn't any info about how what the dimensions of the slideshow should be, and I couldn't find that info, so I switched to the Debut theme, because of your tutorial. I wanted to create a slider because I couldn't find one that was great, for my Shopify store.
This is helpful. I just started a Shopify store yesterday, should I sell only a few types of products or is it better to cover a wide range of products? I'm talking about whether if it's better to just sell all type of sports watches or is it better to sell lots of products related to sports such as running?
thank you for this amazing video! i have trouble with "editing code" on my debut theme... is it possible to edit code on a free theme? or i have to get a paid theme to edit it ?
Hi Sogo glad to hear you liked the video. You can edit your code on the Debut theme as well as any of the free or paid Shopify themes. The Debut theme has a lot of it's items listed under the Sections and Snippets area more nested away. Be careful editing your theme code though and always make a duplicate theme before you make changes :)
Hello, I know you can help me. If the Shopify Store will be a clothing line and apparel would you recommend spending the money on the a Theme? I'm moving it over from Clickfunnels and just want to make it easier on myself and faster change over. Also I just tested under the debut a Image Slider image that is 1200 x 400 and it looks great in desktop but the sides are chopped of in mobile. Is this a theme issue or a size issue? Thank You For Your Help and Guidance, Dean
Hello. Im trying Spotify over squarespace for the first time. When I click customize, there are no SECTIONS and GENERAL SETTINGS tabs. Just a list of items: Welcome, Blog, Site Options, Popup, Checkout, etc. Really having trouble finding a place to manage the sections of the template. Did they upgrade the user interface and its somewhere else than shown on this video?? Your video is very helpful, but the CMS doesn't look like that on my end! Help!
It seems there is way more customization options for Debut then Minimalist. I am having a hard time getting my site how I want it to look. This looks better.
Hi there, I have a shopify store and with the help of your videos managed to link it to my Pinterest. I created a catalogue and submitted it to Pinterest however Pinterest requests my Shopify store to have a delivery policy....By any chance can you help me with this? how can I reach you?
I want to edit my homepage coz it seems I made a lot of mistakes and i would like to try it all over again from the beginning but I dont know how to edit what I had published. If I start again from the beginning or try another theme...whats gonna happen to all the products that i imported from the supplier. Can you give me an advise on this matter.
The shipping link keeps bringing me to a page that i can not find and erase how do i find it its the shipping word example Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.
@@Curiousthemes I'd like for it to show up in the background, and maybe some for the slide show elements but that part would probably be part of an image right?
Thanks for the explanation. I would look for a background element you like that is repeating. A great site is www.toptal.com/designers/subtlepatterns/ and you can download it from there and upload it to your theme's "Customize" area if they give you the options to add in a background element.
Hello! I have some problems related to the collection images. I cannot seem to find a way to set different banner images for each of me 3 collections. Somehow i can't find an option in the command panel to select a different picture for the banner for each theme. In the collection panel i only have a slider option so on all my collections i have the same slider image. I want 3 collections with 3 different banner images. I think my theme is missing the option for "collection banner image". Do you have any idea how i could solve this? Many thanks!
Hi Georgiana! What theme are you using? Do you have the collection image set in the individual collections on your site because the theme may also be pulling the images in from there?
There are different sliders that are in the Shopify app store (apps.shopify.com/search/query?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=slideshow) but I find that the best option is to actually find a theme that you like that has a slideshow in it already.
It really depends on your theme for the logo size but I would say an average logo size for the top of your site would be 250px wide by 100px tall. If you have a square logo it can really mess up your spacing though because it is much taller than the rest of the navigation.
Curious Themes - Shopify Experts I resolved it with support from Shopify! Indeed my logo was a square and that made it difficult - very big header space which didn't look appealing
Hi, can anyone here help me out real quick pls... I am so new to this dropshipping strategy and my problem right now with dropshipping is What Should I do after customer purchased my products but the money that they spent wasn't transferring to my account right away, instead I have to wait for the Shopify payout date in the next 5-days ....? Until that then the customer who bought that product thru me will be like....30days waiting time. Please helps :(
Yes this is a tough dilemma because it does take 3-5 business days for the money from Shopify to be in your bank account. So this can delay order fulfillment. I recommend having some money available in your account to fulfill orders while you are waiting on your payout from Shopify but that is completely up to you.
I won't downvote this, but for anyone that has NOT watched this yet, it is VERY basic. She should have put Easy or Basic in the title. She's great at explaining the different topics she did cover however!
Thanks for the feedback Jacob! Yes you are correct that this video is geared towards beginners with Shopify and trying to make the theme customization not as overwhelming. Great idea about also doing a more advanced video :)
Hi Jay! We are booked up on custom work currently but we do offer an online class that takes you through the whole process from start to finish: www.curiousthemes.com/shopify-in-a-weekend

The shipping link keeps bringing me to a page that i can not find and erase how do i find it its the shipping word example Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.
Would like to change Image with Text Overlay to a video.Is that possible?
What theme are you using on your site?
Can you add to a theme / make your own theme? Something like stripes lets say, or curved lines. Would that be possible?
Yes this is possible. Are you wanting to add the stripes/curved lines as a background element on the site or where are you wanting it to show up?
@@Curiousthemes I'd like for it to show up in the background, and maybe some for the slide show elements but that part would probably be part of an image right?
Im trying to make a home decor store and I don't really want just a basic white. My plan is to have black with some gold stripes as a main theme
Yes if you want it to show up in a slideshow that would be the background of the image.
Thanks for the explanation. I would look for a background element you like that is repeating. A great site is www.toptal.com/designers/subtlepatterns/ and you can download it from there and upload it to your theme's "Customize" area if they give you the options to add in a background element.
