Shopify Blog Template

Hey gang,

 

No idea if I am even in the right place. I am looking to set up a gallery template on a Shopify Blog for my online comics. It looks like they want me to insert it as code.

 

Does Adobe have a way to make that happen? And is Dreamweaver the right place to start?

 

Thanks so much for your help. Just when I think I get a handle on what I can do with the Cloud, I find out that there is a whole new area to explore. 😄

 

Kenny

 

P.S. If you are so talented, and want to help a brother out, please let me know too. 😄

Shopify is NOT an Adobe product.  It's a closed online eCommerce site building system and shopping cart with hosting.  You do not need Dreamweaver for any of this.  Please refer to your Shopify documentation for help.

Oh I get that Shopify is not an Adobe Product. However their blog template needs to be coded, which is where I was hoping Adobe had a product that I could use to create what I am looking for and then port it into the template. 

Am I barking up the wrong tree here?

I suggest you buy a Shopify Theme for your project. Especially if you're a beginner.  There's no sense reinventing the wheel if you don't need to.

Suffice it to say, unless you're very skilled with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Liquid programming and Shopify's theme requirements, you're not ready to create one from scratch.  That's an advanced project for experienced Shopify developers.
