Hi.
I downloaded the latest version of Dawn 11.0.0 and I don’t have an option to change the color scheme. It says “No color schemes defined. Color schemes must be defined in settings_data and settings_schema files.” I see no instruction on how to add the color scheme.
Hello @EadoGuy ,
Maybe there was issue while insalling the theme.
Please try to reinstall it.
Thanks
I also have the same issue.

reinstalling did not work, although downloading dawn from scratch doesn’t have the bug.

I too have the same issue. Is there going to be a fix for this?
I am using Studio and just upgraded from 9.0 to 11.0 and am also having the same error:
“No color schemes defined. Color schemes must be defined in settings_data and settings_schema files.”
And I am not sure where in the coding files to fix this.

Fix:
Open Code editor > go to config/setting_data.json > search for “content_for_index” > add (comma ‘,’) at the end of the line > and paste the code:
"color_schemes": {
"background-1": {
"settings": {
"background": "#ffffff",
"background_gradient": "",
"text": "#2e2a39",
"button": "#d0ad46",
"button_label": "#fdfbf7",
"secondary_button_label": "#2e2a39",
"shadow": "#2e2a39"
}
},
"background-2": {
"settings": {
"background": "#e9ffed",
"background_gradient": "",
"text": "#2e2a39",
"button": "#2e2a39",
"button_label": "#edffa7",
"secondary_button_label": "#2e2a39",
"shadow": "#2e2a39"
}
},
"inverse": {
"settings": {
"background": "#2e2a39",
"background_gradient": "",
"text": "#fdfbf7",
"button": "#fdfbf7",
"button_label": "#2e2a39",
"secondary_button_label": "#fdfbf7",
"shadow": "#2e2a39"
}
},
"accent-1": {
"settings": {
"background": "#25910f",
"background_gradient": "",
"text": "#ffffff",
"button": "#ffffff",
"button_label": "#25910f",
"secondary_button_label": "#fdfbf7",
"shadow": "#2e2a39"
}
},
"accent-2": {
"settings": {
"background": "#d0ad46",
"background_gradient": "",
"text": "#ffffff",
"button": "#fdfbf7",
"button_label": "#d0ad46",
"secondary_button_label": "#fdfbf7",
"shadow": "#2e2a39"
}
}
}

@Willix Thanks so much for your help. To confirm I am on the right track, I now see:
…
},
"content_for_index": [
]
},
"presets": {
…
Do I put the comma at the end of the line after the “[”? And insert the code on the next line, the line above the “]”?
Like this:
},
"content_for_index": [,
`
]
},
"presets": {
`

Nope. This is it, I think:
},
"content_for_index": [
],
`
},
"presets": {
`
I have had the same problem and have tried this but the code says invalid token.
Is there something I might be doing wrong?
I am unable to change any of the colours on the store now I have downloaded the theme 11.0
Thanks
I hop this helps as it did for me just now:
Click on the three dots before the publish button, click on Edit Code
Go to config - setting_data.json
Recent changes - click on arrow and find original.
this fixed the error but when you customize the colors under theme its not the same format
luck of the draw for me, was fiddling with the recent changes

Can confirm this worked for me.
Theme settings > Config > setting_data.json > recent changes (dropdown) > original.
No idea why you have to do this bc I dont have custom code… but it works!
Hello,
I ran into the same issue trying to update from 4.0.0 to 11.0.0. I just copied the code for settings_data.json directly over the existing file.
There are some updates to the way they display the color scheme from the older version. It’s probably looking for updated variables.
How to update the settings files:
Select Customize your theme
Select the … (ellipsis menu)
Edit code
Navigate to the Config folder
Open the settings_data.json file
Copy the contents from the Shopify Dawn Github repository
https://github.com/Shopify/dawn/blob/main/config/settings_data.json
Pase over the existing code
Save
Hopefully, that works for you.
If you need the settings schema file, it’s in the same repository.
https://github.com/Shopify/dawn/blob/main/config/settings_schema.json
Worked for me too…thanks!

Hi!
We understand color schemes play a crucial part in branding. We’ve confirmed with the theme support team that the customization would require contacting support to be done. This ensures that the storefront functions as expected.

Hi - I have this issue as well. The problem is I also cannot contact the support team - the bot gives me a link which doesn’t work. I do not see the ‘I still need help’ button..
Please help!!!
Hi,
I’m not part of the Shopify support team. However, if you type “Talk to someone” that gets you a bit further and the chatbot will ask you to select a store and hopefully that will get you to a support person.
