Need help with theme customization after upload?

I can’t customize the theme. I just uploaded it, can someone help me

Hi, @Selma1 .

Thank you for posting to the Shopify Community.

I understand you’ve recently uploaded a theme to your Theme Library but are unable to edit it. Could you share if you’re seeing any error messages or experiencing issues when attempting to customize your theme?

To gather more context, could you share information on the following:

  • Please share a screenshot or video when selecting Customize next to your theme. This will help us determine if there are any issues when loading the theme editor or if any error messages appear.
  • When customizing the theme, are you able to Save your changes?
  • Does the issue you’re experiencing happen on other themes? (For example, a free Shopify theme?)

I look forward to your reply!

Thank you for contacting me. I cannot customize the theme. My shop was on hiatus and I thought that was the problem. I am sending you two attachments, the last theme had the same problem and now I have taken the free Shopify theme, and I have the same problem. I just can’t get it to start

Thanks for your reply and sharing a screenshot, @Selma1 .

This error message can populate for various reasons and would need to be more closely examined by our team. In order for our team to take a look at where the issue is stemming from, I recommend getting in touch via the Shopify Help Center.

Please let us know if you need help navigating the help center or have further questions.

@Victoria_13 , Shopify Help Center is a virtual assistant I’ve already tried and I can’t solve the problem. Is it possible that the problem is happening because my shop is on Pause and Build?

Thanks for your reply, @Selma1 .

When accessing the Shopify Help Center, you will need to type your question in the chat box to the Help Center Assistant. By submitting your question to the Help Center Assistant, you’ll be able to connect with a Support Advisor.

If you have any questions please share them here along with any screenshot(s).
