Shopify themes, liquid, logos, and UX
Hello everyone! I noticed long time ago that the theme Dawn has been updated quite much and decided to make this step and update the current theme that I am using. I am now using Dawn version 2.4.0 and would like to update to latest version available.
I downloaded the latest version, but when I click on preview, it shows empty, with just a few of my original products and menu items. I am afraid to hit publish and to loose everything that I have made on the "old" theme. Also, I do not want to go through the process of customizing manually again the new theme and make it look like the existing one. Is there a simple smart way to navigate all the customizations from an old theme to a new one?
Please help, thank you!
Hello,
unfortunately, it isn't possible to upgrade any Shopify theme to a newer version automatically and keep all existing customizations (that's a general rule not only for Dawn theme).
The only way is to import manually all customizations that have been added from 2.4.0 to 6.0.2.
I did it many times for various themes and I usually follow this approach:
