Color schemes

Different sections across the theme, such as Rich text, Image banner, and Collection list, let you select a color scheme to apply to that section from the colors you set in your theme settings. Your theme has a default color scheme applied, which can be changed at any time in the theme editor. Adding your brand colors ensures a cohesive application of your color palette across your online store.

Use the drop-down menu to choose between Accent 1, Accent 1 gradient, Accent 2, Accent 2 gradient, Background 1, Background 1 gradient, Background 2, Background 2 gradient, or Inverse. You can preview selected color schemes in your theme editor's preview panel.
