Hey @pprit
Simplest way would be to check if the add a section appears in your sidebar
alternatively you follow the following steps
- Go to Online Store > Themes > Edit code.
- In the Templates folder of your theme, check if all your files are .json.
- If all your template files are .json, your theme is a Shopify 2.0 OS theme.

Hi @pprit ,
The major update on Shopify 2.0 is the feature called “Sections Everywhere”. You can read about it here : https://www.shopify.com/in/partners/blog/shopify-online-store
I can confirm that it is a Shopify 2.0 theme because the theme supports this feature.
Kind Regards,
Roy
