Continuing our drive to make customization even easier, we’ve just released a few more updates and improvements that we think you’ll love.
The easily uploadable background image in our new Sidecar theme was such a big hit, we decided to add it to all of our themes. Spruce up your shop with a custom background image by following either of these easy steps.
I haven’t customized my CSS
Well perfect, you’re ready to go right now. Simply go to Customize design in your store admin, and in the top left of the control panel you can easily upload a background image to your theme.
I’ve already customized my CSS
No sweat. You’ll need to remove any current background image, and use this lil’ snippet of code at the bottom of your CSS instead:
{% if theme.background_image != blank %}
body {
background-image: url({{ theme.background_image.url }});
background-repeat: repeat;
}
{% endif %}
Now you’re set to upload using our built-in theme option.
Bug fixes and page editor tweaks
In addition to background images, we’ve squashed a few bugs and made a few other enhancements that should make the design area a little nicer. Plus, we’ve cleared up the confusion between Save and Done buttons when editing pages. Now you’ll more clearly know when you’re just finished editing a certain page, and when all of your shop changes are saved and live for the world.
