Create additional page templates

If you’d like to use a custom page template, follow these steps:

Step one

  1. Go to Online Store > Themes, and click Customize.
  2. In the theme editor, use the dropdown at the top middle and select Pages → Create template.
  3. 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.
  4. 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

  1. From your Shopify admin, click Online store > Pages, and select the page you’d like to assign the new template to.
  2. In the page editor, find the Theme template section.
  3. Choose the template you just created, then click Save.
  4. 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.
