Using Edibot Themes, you can create your own theme even without any specialist knowledge by combining premade components. The default theme (which includes all of the main online store features) is provided for free, and uses a responsive web design that can be displayed and rendered on screens of various devices including PCs and tablets.
When accessing your admin page for the very first time, your store theme will be set to Edibot Themes by default.
Components
Components are completed theme elements provided through Edibot Themes. You can change the placement of a component by clicking and dragging it to the desired location.
Components can be divided into two types: Regular components and components with additional features. Regular components cannot be changed and must be used as they are. Components with additional features have certain settings and/or features which can be changed. You can modify components with additional features by moving your mouse cursor over the them (PC) or selecting the edit icon when you tap on them (Mobile).
Additional features
- Adding images and links
You can change the image in a banner component or add a URL link that redirects the user to the corresponding page when the banner is clicked on. You can use your own images or use an image created through Edibot. - Selecting product layout
Ensure that you have selected one of the home categories on your admin page so that it will appear on your component list. You can check your home categories by going to Products>Product layout>Home page category layout and clicking on Manage home categories.
Every part of your online store on Edibot Themes is composed of different components. Information added or modified in your admin page is automatically reflected according to the function of each component. However, some information might not be reflected in the components included in the default theme. In this case, you will need to use another component to include this information.
