Hey, this is Robert with Zenfolio and in this video, I’m going to show you how to change your website template, fonts, and colors.

From your account dashboard, click on the Website icon then in the Website Editor, click on the Design icon. Now click Change Template in the pop-up window. You can browse through all of our available templates. Click preview to see an example of what this template will look like. You have the option to view a desktop, tablet, or mobile preview. Once you have decided on a template, hit Select to apply it to your website.

One thing to keep in mind when changing your template, if you have done any customization to your current site such as updating your SEO information, customizing or adding text in any of the content blocks, or adding your own images, when you change your template all of the content blocks and images will be reset to the default for that template. I would suggest you have a copy of that text saved in a document outside of Zenfolio as well as the images you plan on using for your homepage saved in a specific gallery or folder on your computer. This is why I would advise deciding on a template first, then modifying the text and images.
