What do you need to do after changing/updating a theme?

To ensure a seamless transition and proper functionality of EComposer when changing your Shopify theme, please follow the detailed instructions provided below:

Step 1: After changing the theme, the first step is to access the EComposer dashboard -> Settings -> Theme management to select the theme that you just changed to and click on the Save button. Selecting the new theme within EComposer establishes the connection between EComposer and the new theme.

Step 2: Once you have selected the new theme within EComposer, scroll down a bit to see the Layout sync tab, and click on the Sync button. This step is crucial to synchronize your pages and the template created by EComposer with the new theme.

Step 3: Please take note that when you change the theme, all the flexible sections that were added to the existing pages of the Shopify theme will be lost. These flexible sections provide customizable content areas, allowing you to create unique layouts. To restore these flexible sections, you will need to add them again specifically for the default Shopify pages of the new theme. This step ensures that your pages align with the default configuration of the new theme and maintains consistency across your website. You can read more about the Section builder here.
