Customize Store Settings | SHOP Builder

SHOP Builder feature banner introducing storefront design customization for EC and SC store types

SHOP Builder is SHOPLINE's storefront-level design tool. From the Advanced Page editor, you can set the colors and fonts used across your entire online store and adjust how your product list displays.

It's for merchants who want to align their storefront with their brand look and improve the shopping experience, useful whether you're setting up your store's color palette and typography for the first time or fine-tuning mobile menu behavior and product listing display.

In this article, you'll find:

Before you begin, please note:

  • SHOP Builder currently only supports Ultra Chic, Kingsman, Varm, and Philia theme templates.
  • After creating a page using SHOP Builder, the page can still be displayed even if you switch to other theme templates, but it cannot be edited, and the layout may be messed up. Please take note of this before publishing the page.
  • Adjustments to the store settings apply to all pages, not just certain pages of your online store.

 

1. FAQ

  • Q1: What is SHOP Builder used for?
    SHOP Builder lets you customize the colors, fonts, and product display settings of your online store's Advanced Pages, so your storefront matches your brand without editing each page individually.
  • Q2: Which theme templates support SHOP Builder?
    Currently, only the Ultra Chic, Kingsman, Varm, and Philia theme templates support SHOP Builder.
  • Q3: How do I check which theme template my store is currently using?
    In the SHOPLINE Admin, go to [Online Store Design] > [Design] to see the applied theme template. You can also go to [Online Store Design] > [Pages] > [Advanced Page editor] > [Store Settings] and scroll down to view the current theme. Click Go to Design to change the theme template.
  • Q4: Do store settings apply to my whole store or just one page?
    Store settings apply to every page of your online store, not just the page you're editing.
  • Q5: What happens to my SHOP Builder settings if I switch to a theme that doesn't support it?
    Your storefront will reset to the new theme's default styling, and you won't be able to open SHOP Builder while the unsupported theme is applied. If you later switch back to a supported theme, the settings you previously saved in SHOP Builder will have been cleared and reset to the default. See 3. Select or switch your store's theme template.
  • Q6: Which settings can I customize in SHOP Builder?
    Five categories: Color, Font, Mobile, Product, and Others. See 4. Customize color, font, mobile, product, and other store settings.
  • Q7: How do I preview my changes before they go live?
    Click Save at the bottom of the left column to preview a change on the right, then click Preview Page and Publish to apply it to your live storefront. See 5. Preview and publish your store settings.

 

2. Open Store Settings from the Advanced Page editor

In the SHOPLINE Admin, go to [Online Store Design] > [Pages], and click the Advanced Page button.

Switching to a new theme template may result in two situations:

If the new theme template supports SHOP Builder

  • The existing font and color settings remain unchanged in SHOP Builder.
  • The new theme template will be applied to the storefront, and the settings will remain unchanged.
  • Only four theme templates - Kingsman, Ultra Chic, Varm, and Philia - currently support SHOP Builder. More theme templates will support SHOP Builder in the future.

If the new theme template does not support SHOP Builder

  • You cannot enter SHOP Builder while an unsupported theme template is applied.
  • The new theme template will be applied to the storefront, and the settings will be reset to default.
  • If you switch back to the original theme template, the existing settings you saved in SHOP Builder will be cleared and reset to the default.

*Note: If you have started using SHOP Builder, it is recommended that you keep using the theme template that supports SHOP Builder to keep the settings. 

After applying the new theme template, please follow the steps in 2. Open Store Settings from the Advanced Page editor to continue setup in SHOP Builder.

You can adjust these 5 settings in Store Settings: "Color", "Font", "Mobile", "Product", and "Others".

6. Font compatibility reference

Can I use different fonts for different languages in the same title or text block?

No. Currently, the system does not support multilingual titles or text using multiple font types. For example, if your title is in both English and Chinese, only one font type can be applied.

What happens to Kanji characters that aren't supported by M PLUS Rounded 1c or Shippori Mincho?

These two fonts are Japanese Kanji fonts. You can select them for Chinese characters, but some characters don't have corresponding Kanji glyphs. Characters without a corresponding Kanji glyph will display in the default font instead.

What font displays if my selected font doesn't support a customer's store language?

The customer will see the default font for that language instead: 

  • Traditional Chinese uses Noto Sans TC
  • Simplified Chinese uses Noto Sans SC
  • English/German/French/Malay use Noto Sans
  • Thai uses Noto Sans TH
  • Vietnamese uses Noto Sans VN
  • Japanese uses Noto Sans JP
