I have a client who uses a custom email theme/template made by a former employee. Now she wants to make a change to this theme. Is it possible to make a change for this theme without having to upload it as a entire new theme and having to swap all existing emails to this theme?
You can make the changes to the theme inside the code of the theme via the command line, this will work for this theme and any new emails moving forward, however if they want to change all past emails then you will either have to edit them one by one, or there are possibilities to change them inside mysql (very difficult and often very dangerous)
Hello @rickvellinga,
Based on your description, I recommend keeping the email theme but downloading it from your instance library first.
Once downloaded, edit the theme according to your client’s requirements. To differentiate it, update the composer.json and config.json files by renaming the theme from (for example) “ABC Newsletter” to “ABC Newsletter v2”. Also, update all relevant data, including the repository name, changing “abc-newsletter” to “abc-newsletter-2”.
For additional clarity, you might consider updating the theme’s thumbnail to reflect the “v2” version before uploading it. In my opinion, this is the best approach.
Best regards,
Ricardo
