how to change the color of the background in Sense theme

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A user asks how to change the background color in the Sense theme, specifically wanting something other than white.

Solution provided involves two main approaches:

  1. Theme Customization Panel: Navigate to Theme Settings → Colors to access color scheme options

  2. Color Scheme Configuration:

    • The Sense theme uses multiple color schemes (scheme 1, scheme 2, etc.)
    • Each section of the theme can be assigned a specific color scheme
    • Users must update the color settings within each scheme, then ensure individual sections (like the header) are set to use the desired scheme

Key technical detail: Simply changing colors in Theme Settings isn’t enough—each section has its own color scheme selector that must be configured separately.

Community members provided screenshots demonstrating the exact navigation path and settings panels to help visualize the process.
