Getting started

1. Add Verso to your store

Install Verso from the Shopify Theme Store. It is added to Online Store > Themes as an unpublished theme, so you can set it up before customers see it.

Before you change any code, duplicate your theme first (Actions > Duplicate). Theme updates replace the theme's files, and a copy keeps your changes safe.

2. Pick a style

Verso comes with four styles. Each one sets the layout, colors and fonts of its demo store. Choose one when you install, or later in Theme settings > Theme style. See Styles.

3. The essentials

1. Logo: Theme settings > Logo. Upload a logo, and if you use a transparent header over photos, a light Logo over images too.
2. Colors: Theme settings > Colors. Edit the color schemes; every section picks one of them.
3. Fonts: Theme settings > Typography. Pick Latin fonts and, if you sell in Hebrew or Arabic, the font style for those scripts.
4. Menus: Online Store > Navigation. The header uses the main menu; menu items with children open as panels or mega menus.
5. Home page: add, remove and reorder sections in the theme editor.
6. Cart: Theme settings > Cart. Choose the Cart type (drawer, page or popup notification), and optionally a Free shipping threshold and a Gift wrapping product.

4. Before you publish

• Check the store in every language you sell in, including a right to left language if you have one.
• Fill in the accessibility statement page (see the guide).
• Place a test order with Shopify's test payment mode.
