Exporting and importing the ThemeWare® configuration
Unfortunately, currently there is no possibility to export and import the theme configuration from Shopware via the administration. Nor are we aware of a corresponding extension so far.
Important: In the Shopware 6 Cloud there is currently no possibility to reach the configuration via the Database!
Using an export and import of the configuration values you can:
- save your configuration
- restore a saved configuration
- transfer configurations between a theme and its duplicate
- transfer theme configurations to another installation
Manual editing of the database is suitable for experienced users who are skilled in the use of the database. Look for help if this doesn't apply to you.
Attention: Make sure to backup your database before making any changes here!
Tip: For a quick access to the database we gladly use the extension Adminer for Admin from Friends of Shopware.
- 1.Open the database (e.g. Adminer or phpMyAdmin)
- 2.Use the search field to find the table "themes" (1)
- 3.Open the table with "select" (2)
- 4.Edit the data set of the desired theme (e.g. "TcinnThemeWareModern") with "edit" (3)
- 5.Save the content of the column "config_values" (4) in a *.txt or *.json file to perform a "backup" of the current configuration
- 6.Leave the database without saving changes
- 1.Open the database (e.g. Adminer or phpMyAdmin)
- 2.Use the search field to find the table "themes" (1)
- 3.Open the table with "select" (2) open
- 4.Edit the data set of the desired theme (e.g. "TcinnThemeWareModern") with "edit" (3)
- 5.Enter your saved configuration into the field "config_values" (4)
- 6.Save the change of the data set
Note: The change will be applied to your theme when you open the theme configuration the next time.


- When transferring a theme configuration, make sure that the themes are compatible with each other! For example, you should avoid depositing a ThemeWare® configuration in the default "Storefront" theme, or vice versa.
- When transferring a theme configuration, make sure that the version number of the source and target theme is the same!
- If the configuration is to be transferred to another Shopware installation, then all media (background image, etc.) must be re-uploaded and reassigned.
