In response to our user's requests and to continue providing more features, characteristics, and tools that help sellers enhance their experience within the platform and improve the shopping experience for their online stores, we have developed a new set of themes to enhance the overall appearance of the store and make it more appealing and user-friendly.
A new option has been added to the "Store" section called "Themes," which provides you with a collection of ready-made designs that you can easily customize according to the needs of your business and personal taste.
You can now access a variety of available themes and choose the one that suits you. Afterwards, you can install and customize it as you wish. We will continuously work on adding more new themes to cater to different preferences.
