Clicking on the link from the "Themes" preferences page opens its configuration page. That page gives you direct links to the most usual front - office modules: you can enable and disable a dozen of features, such as displaying social buttons or the Facebook block (provided their respective modules are enabled), and get direct access to their configuration page. You can also enable and access the Live Configurator from there, which makes it possible to easily change your theme's main color and font.

The module is explained in more details in the "Making the Native Modules Work" chapter of this guide.

Info

If you are using the default theme and want to customize it, here is a summary of the different image sizes you will need.

 

The theme's advanced settings

...

  • Name of the theme. Make sure the name is not already used by another theme (check on the Addons website).
  • Preview image for the theme. You should always add a preview image, as it is a clear reminder of what the theme looks like. If you do not have one yet, leave that for later, when the time will come to release the theme.
  • Default left column and Default right column. Indicate if your theme has a column (or even two columns), and if so, on which side of the screen. This is purely informational, and can be changed at any time.
  • Number of products per page. Indicate the default number of products that should be shown on a page. This option can be adjusted later on.
  • Name of the theme's directory. Try to keep it close to your theme's name. If you have not already created a theme folder, PrestaShop will create one for you.
  • Copy missing files from existing theme. This is the cleanest method to start a new theme from another theme's files. Choose "default-bootstrap", or any other theme that you would like to base your foundation on.
  • Responsive. Indicate if your theme has a responsive design or not (if you do not know what a responsive design is, then you probably should choose "No"). This is purely informational, and can be changed at any time.
