Does pushing a theme actually change the dabase in terms of changes done in the customizer in the meantime (while developing the theme locally)? Because all our changes got Lost. Even created Pages etc. everything is gone after the theme push…
This is the way the theme was customized in the meantime:
When you are using the Shopify CLI to create a locally running version of the theme editor, and you make changes to settings on the local version of the theme editor, these changes are not populated across to the themes config files where theme editor settings are stored. If you want to make changes via the theme editor you need to do this via the live stores version of the theme editor, and not the local preview that’s generated with the CLI.
The local version of the theme editor is intended to allow you to preview how code changes that you’re making on the theme would appear - eg: if you’re adding a new setting to a section, you can see how that setting would appear in the theme editor preview.
