Will updating to the Debutify theme require a shop redesign?

I want to update my Shopify theme from Dawn to Debutify. Will I have to redesign my shop once I update it with the Debutify theme or will it just update automatically to the new theme?

It depends on the complexity level of your current customization, but in general, you would need to make new theme customizations when switching themes.

Hi, @shopspadove !

Thanks for reaching out in our Community forums and for sharing your concern, I’d be happy to provide some additional information.

That is correct, you would need to generally make new customizations as each theme has different layouts and sections. Rest assured, all of the pages that you created can be easily linked to your new theme. For instance, your About Us page, Blogs, or any sort of page created from your admin. Your images should also be saved so you can easily upload them to the new sections on your themes.

I know that making these changes may take some time, so be sure to officially publish your theme once they are made, just so that existing customers will not see these changes being done in real time.

Changing themes can be very exciting! I’d like to know more about your reasoning as to why you’d like to change? What ideal features do you look for in a theme?

Kindly reply back to this thread with any questions or updates and we can continue our conversation further!
