Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on customizing the Dawn theme for my Shopify store, but I’m facing an issue with editing the header and footer. The changes I make in the theme editor don’t reflect on the live site, especially when adjusting the logo size and footer menu links. I’ve cleared the cache and tried different browsers, but no luck.

Has anyone faced a similar issue or know a workaround? Any help would be appreciated!

Hello @bladimirtech321 Try to update your theme first, like use dawn updated version 15.0, If it still doesn’t work, share the store URL, and I can check it to guide you better.

Thank you!
