    If you want to bring part of the structure to the new theme you can follow this guide:

    • Create a backup copy of your existing theme

    • After uploading your updated theme, follow this instructions

    • From your list of themes, choose the Actions button on the main live
      theme and then Edit code:

    • Open the following file: settings_data.json

    • Copy all the code

    • Find the same file in the new Theme

    • Paste the code

    • Check if everything is OK.

    PS: This method is recommended if you are still using Online Store 1.0

    For Online Store 2.0 most part of the data is saved in the file templates, within the JSON schema.
