Appearance

The Appearance section of the Tebex Control Panel allows you to customize the visual layout, styling, and behavior of your store. From templates and themes to visibility settings, branding, and customer experience, this page is your one-stop-shop for customizing how your store looks and feels.

📍 Navigate to: WebstoreAppearance (in the left-hand sidebar)


Understanding Templates and Themes

Concept
Description

Template

Controls the structure and layout of your store. It's based on HTML. Templates define how components (like headers, product grids, and sidebars) are arranged.

Theme

Controls the styling and color scheme of your store. It's based on CSS. Themes change fonts, colors, and visual polish.

💡 Tebex's default free template is Exo, which includes several free themes like “Space.”


Key Appearance Options

Visibility Controls

Limit who can view your store during setup or private testing:

  • Click Visibility beneath your template name.

  • Enable the toggle to make your store private.

  • Add IPv4 addresses to whitelist access. Separate multiple IPs with commas (e.g. 8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4).

  • View your IP here.

Note: If your store isn't appearing online, check your Dashboard to ensure your store has passed the Store Review process.


Branding (Logo & Favicon)

Customize your store's branding:

  • Logo: Replaces your store's name text.

    • PNG or WEBP, max 5MB, min width: 500px.

  • Favicon: Appears in the browser tab.

    • PNG or WEBP, minimum size: 25px x 25px.


Customer Experience Settings

Control the behavior when customers interact with packages:

  • After adding a product to the basket:

    • Redirect to the basket (default)

    • Redirect to the category page

    • Redirect directly to checkout

Control package visibility for guest users:

  • Allow guests to view packages (default)

  • Require login to view packages


Template Options

If you're using a supported template (e.g., Exo), you may see extra configuration fields under Template Options, such as:

  • Store layout style

  • Header layout

  • Sale banner text

  • Store-wide display preferences

Options vary by template. If you want to change something not available here, contact the original template creator. Tebex Support cannot assist with template customizations.
