how check theme name of shopify website
There’s no single guaranteed way—Shopify doesn’t always expose the theme name publicly—but here are the most reliable methods you can use:
🔍 1. View Page Source (Quick Check)
- Open the Shopify website in your browser
- Right click → View Page Source
- Press Ctrl + F and search for:
Shopify.themetheme_store_idtheme.name
Example you might find:
Shopify.theme = {"name":"Dawn","id":123456789}
🧠 2. Use Browser DevTools (More Accurate)
- Press F12 (open Developer Tools)
- Go to Console tab
- Type:
Shopify.theme
If the theme is not hidden, you’ll see:
{ "name": "Dawn", "id": 123456789, ... }
🧩 3. Check CSS / Assets
- In DevTools → Sources / Network tab
- Look for files like:
theme.cssbase.csstheme.js
- Open them and check top comments — sometimes theme name is written there.
🌐 4. Use Online Tools (Easiest)
You can use:
- Shopify Theme Detector
- Koala Inspector (Chrome Extension)
These tools automatically detect theme name, apps, and tech stack.
⚠️ Important Note
- If the store is using a custom or heavily modified theme, the original name may be hidden or changed.
- Some developers intentionally remove theme info for security/branding.
