This article covers the everyday work of the builder: changing the words and the pictures your customers see.
Use it any time a heading is wrong, a photo is tired, or a row needs to be a little bigger.
Before you start
- Editing needs the Customize Store Appearance permission.
- Pictures live in your Media Library, and every one you upload here is kept there too.
Step 1. Type on the page itself
Click a heading or a line of text to select it. Click it again, or press Enter, and you are typing in place. A small counter appears when you get close to the most the spot allows.
Press Enter or click somewhere else to keep your words. Press Escape to put back the words you had before.
A small toolbar follows the selected block: the grip to drag it, Move up, Move down, Duplicate, Hide, Delete and Design settings. Its three dots hold Copy style, Paste style, Reset to theme default and Why is this here?, which tells you where the block came from and where it sits on the page.
Step 3. Put a picture in
Click a picture and its controls open in the settings panel. An empty spot says Drag a photo here, or click to choose. Click it and pick Upload new to choose from your computer, or Use existing from Media Library.
When a photo is already there, Replace offers the same two choices, and Remove takes it out.
Step 4. Make it sit right
Crop & adjust cuts the photo to the exact shape the spot draws. Where a spot changes shape on a phone, you get a dot on the photo instead: drag the dot onto the part that must stay in frame, or press Position on the page and drag the photo itself. Reset to centre puts it back in the middle.
Step 5. Describe the picture
Fill in Alt text (English) and Alt text (Arabic). This is what a blind shopper hears and what search engines read, so a short honest sentence is worth the minute.
Step 6. Size a block by dragging
A selected block shows handles on its edges. Drag one and it steps through the sizes the design allows, showing the size as you go, so you cannot break the layout.
Step 7. Right click for the rest
Right click a block for Edit, Duplicate, Hide, Delete, Move up, Move down, Insert section above, Insert section below, Copy style, Paste style and Reset to theme default. When you picked something small inside a bigger block, Select parent and Select section pick the bigger block.
Result
Your words and pictures are exactly what you meant, framed for both a computer and a phone, described for people who cannot see them, and still safely in your draft.
