Venue - Pages - Create additional page templates
The Venue theme comes with several page templates built in (Contact, FAQ). If you’d like to create more customized pages for example, an About page, a Lookbook page, or any special landing page, you can create additional page templates to suit your needs.

Create additional page templates
If you’d like to use a custom page template, follow these steps:
Step one
- Go to Online Store > Themes, and click Customize.
- In the theme editor, use the dropdown at the top middle and select Pages → Create template.
- Name your new template (for example, page-alt) and base it on the Default page template. This is your starting point for the new layout.
- Click Create template.
At this point, you can start adding sections, blocks, and content to the template. However, we recommend assigning a specific page to the template first — this makes it easier to preview and fine-tune your changes.
Step two
- From your Shopify admin, click Online store > Pages, and select the page you’d like to assign the new template to.
- In the page editor, find the Theme template section.
- Choose the template you just created, then click Save.
- Head back to the theme editor, navigate to that page, and start customizing your sections and content as needed.
Important: Only templates from your live (published) theme will appear in the page editor. If you’d like to assign a template from a draft theme, you’ll need to publish that theme first.
