Editing content & copy
👤 Ops
Most visual and copy changes are made through the Shopify theme editor, the same as any Shopify store. This page points you to the right tools and flags the few CBP-specific spots.
The theme editor
Use Shopify's theme editor to change layout, sections, images, and text on a page:
CBP-specific sections you may encounter in the editor include the vehicle lookup, postcode / delivery entry, and the installation booking sections. Their layout and labels can be edited like any section; their behaviour is driven by the code and API. For a full catalogue, see the custom sections reference, and for the new-to-the-editor basics, Getting started in the theme editor.
Menus, header, footer & announcement bar
These aren't edited inside a page — they have their own homes:
| What | Where to edit it |
|---|---|
| Header & footer menus (the links themselves) | Online Store → Navigation (Shopify guide) |
| Header layout (logo, menu blocks, etc.) | Theme editor → top dropdown → Header group |
| Footer layout (columns, social links, review widgets) | Theme editor → top dropdown → Footer group |
| Announcement bar (the strip above the header) | A section inside the Header group — edit its text or toggle its visibility there |
The header and footer are section groups: you edit their blocks the same way as any section, but you reach them from the page-selector dropdown in the theme editor rather than from a specific page.
Editing wording (translations)
User-facing text in the custom features is managed through the theme's locale (translation) file rather than hard-coded. Small wording tweaks to buttons, prompts, and messages are typically made there.
- Simple, admin-editable text: Editing theme text/translations
- Strings that only exist in the locale file are a developer change — see Escalation & contacts.
If you can't find a piece of wording in the theme editor, it's likely a translation string in the code. Note exactly where it appears and pass it to a developer.
What not to edit here
- The API base URL, debug mode, and installation-service product settings are configuration, not content — see Theme settings.
- Delivery / installation coverage is set via the
postcode_capabilitiesmetaobject (Shopify Admin → Content → Metaobjects), not the theme editor — see Delivery zones.
