Copying the default theme file


When you download PrestaShop, by default, you will have a copy of the PrestaShop theme folder.

Go to the PrestaShop_1.3.1/themes/PrestaShop folder. Copy this entire folder and save it on your computer. You may rename the theme accordingly, for example, theme1. Compress this into a ZIP file.

Upload the renamed folder into the themes directory on your hosting through your cPanel or FTP.

You will now have two themes in your /themes folder which are PrestaShop and theme1.

You can now log in to your PrestaShop Back Office | Preferences | Appearance and switch to your theme1 that you just installed and click on the Save button.

On this page, you may also control what logo, favicon, and the navigation pipes you want to use throughout your website.

Now, let's start with the modification of these theme elements to complete the look of your new theme.
