Log Studio theme documentation
How to install a Log Studio theme, what is in it and what every setting does. Each theme has its own reference, generated from the theme's own settings so it cannot drift from what you see in the editor.
Install and set up
Get the theme
Add it to your theme library from its Theme Store listing. While a theme has no listing yet, ask for early access on its page and we will write when it opens.
Pick a preset
Every theme has three presets: complete looks with their own colors, fonts and shape. You choose one when you add the theme; each can be changed afterwards in Theme settings.
Open the editor
In your Shopify admin go to Online Store, then Themes, and select Customize on the new theme. Nothing goes live until you publish it.
Set the theme settings
Open Theme settings: logo, typography, layout, colors, cards, buttons, cart, product page, motion, social and legal. The settings reference below lists every one.
Build your pages
Use Add section on each template, and add blocks inside the sections that take them. Assign one of the four color schemes to any section.
Preview, then publish
Preview on a phone and on a desktop, check the cart and the product page, then publish from the Themes page.
