Use a Theme Version

Once a version has been added to Theme Repository, you can add it on many platforms.

This is for platforms where you only need to get a version from another theme without doing any code changes on this theme on this platform. For example:

• on production or preprod

• I am working on my extension, and I want to have the latest version of a theme maintained by another team

If your goal is to edit the code and work on it on this platform, please do a git clone instead

If you are on a platform shared with other teams, do not change the version of a theme owned by another team without discussing with them 😄

1 / Open the theme "Version" section

1. Open the bento menu in the header, click on “Admin” icon

2. In the sidebar, click on “Theme”, select your theme

3. Go to the tab “Version”.

If your theme is not present, you can add it with the ADD button and select it from the Theme Repository.

2/ Use the version on the target environment

Click on the ADD button

1 - For "Version Source", choose "Theme Repository"

2 - In the versions list, choose the version you want to use

Each platform can choose which tags are visible in the backoffice settings (editable only by admin).

For example, on production, only the versions tagged as "production" are visible, to prevent someone from selecting by mistake a "preprod" version

Click on "Save". Once added to the platform, your version is available but not activated

3/ Change the version

• Go back to the list of versions

• Click on the version you want to use from the list

• on the detail page, you can select the Status “Current” and save

Hit save and… voilà !

It is not possible to update a theme if one of the websites using it is in "publish" process. If that happens, your theme change will go on a queue and will be done after the publishing of the website has finished.
