Hi,
I am currently creating a new theme on my local pc and connected to the online theme site, but theme watch is no updating it.
Please help.
Hey, @Janamir !
There could be multiple reasons. Some of the reasons I’ve got on the back of my head are:
-
If you’re watching the current live theme, I don’t think it will update unless you add the flag --allow-live on your command. The command would then be “theme watch --allow-live” assuming you already have a config file (config.yaml).
-
You might be making changes on a different theme instead of the one you’re expecting changes from. Please verify the theme ID you’re currently using.
-
I’m not very certain on this but, you could be making changes on a file that “theme watch” is not accounting for-- like files that are not part of Shopify themes’ structure.
Hope this helps! Command reference is here.
@Gulayo that worked, however, I am making a new theme again and run this command, but it doesn’t seem to complete. Please help.
Hello, @Janamir .
Hope you’ve made considerable progress from what you had initially. Did you check the theme read/write access for this, too? You could’ve missed it again.
If that’s not the case, please verify if your password is correct. That’s all I can assume with what we have, unfortunately. Wish there was a more verbose message.
@Gulayo I updated the theme, but now it is showing an error - request failed after 5 retries with error:
