Purpose and when to use this record

Control a storefront’s visual theme, brand assets, colors, typography, and active presentation.

At a glance

  • Identify it by: Name.

  • Check its business context: Store.

  • Why care: Store, publication, consent, payment, and fulfillment states affect what customers see and what staff must act on; check the correct store before saving.

  • Why care: Availability and publication flags affect future use without erasing history. Prefer disabling an obsolete setup record when existing transactions still refer to it.

Before you begin

You need the Brisk permission for the action you are taking on themes. If a Create, Edit, or Delete control is absent, do not work around it with another user’s account; ask an administrator to review your role.

Have valid Store records ready first. Those selections determine where this Theme belongs and which later screens can find it.

Create a Theme

Create a Theme only when the existing choices do not represent the policy or classification you need. Near-duplicate setup values split reporting and make later selection harder.

  1. Select the business context first: Store.

  2. Enter the required identifying and operational values: Store, and Name.

  3. Review Is Active, Preset, Theme Pack, Hero Layout, Product Card Style, and Script Type deliberately; these choices control availability or workflow rather than merely describing the record.

  4. Save the Theme, then confirm Name on its detail page before continuing.

After saving: Open the screen that uses this choice and confirm the Theme appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

Delete a Theme

Delete this Theme only if it is an unused duplicate or setup mistake. Once other records refer to it, preserve that history and make the value inactive when the screen provides that option.

If the record is merely obsolete, use Is Active to remove it from future use while preserving existing references.

On the confirmation page, verify Name. After confirmation, return to the Themes list and make sure only the intended Theme was removed.

Review Theme details

Use the detail page as the shared record of what this Theme currently means. Verify Is Active, Preset, Theme Pack, Hero Layout, Product Card Style, and Script Type before relying on it for a decision.

Follow Store to determine whether the issue is on this Theme or on one of those linked records.

Next check: Open the screen that uses this choice and confirm the Theme appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

Edit an existing Theme

Edit this Theme when the underlying policy or classification changed. First determine whether historical transactions should retain the old value; if so, deactivate the old choice and create a new one.

  1. Open the detail page. Compare Store with the supporting document or approved request.

  2. Recheck Is Active, Preset, Theme Pack, Hero Layout, Product Card Style, and Script Type. These values are most likely to change storefront visibility, customer communication, payment, or fulfillment.

  3. Save the change, return to the list, and confirm that the Theme now appears under the expected Is Active, Preset, Theme Pack, Hero Layout, Product Card Style, and Script Type.

After the change: Open the screen that uses this choice and confirm the Theme appears with the intended label and availability. Keep the old value for historical records when changing it would split or relabel prior reporting.

Find and review themes

Brisk Themes list screen displayed with fictional documentation-demo data.
The Themes list screen in the Brisk documentation demo.

Use the Themes list to find the correct record before opening or changing it. Compare Name. Records with similar names or numbers can still belong to different Store.

  • Keyword search checks Name.

  • Narrow the list with Store filters.

  • The initial order emphasizes Name. Select a column heading when you need a different comparison.

Open the Theme whose Name match the task. If it is missing, clear the list filters and recheck Store, Is Active, Preset, Theme Pack, Hero Layout, and Product Card Style, plus the remaining screen fields rather than creating a replacement immediately.

Common mistakes and troubleshooting

  • The record will not save: Recheck Store, and Name and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.

  • The record saved but is not available where expected: Recheck Is Active, Preset, Theme Pack, Hero Layout, Product Card Style, and Script Type, then clear the filters on the destination list. A saved record can still be inactive, unpublished, locked, unapproved, or in the wrong workflow state.

  • The values look right but the result is wrong: Open Store from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.
