# Validate the theme configuration

Before reporting an issue, you can easily check whether your individual configuration has an error.

**Just use the "Validate" feature in Shopware.**

This is useful if you receive an error message such as `Invalid configuration – The configuration is faulty. The theme cannot be saved.` or the theme could not be saved.

To validate your configuration, open the theme configuration and click on the arrow next to the Save button. There you will find the "Validate" option.

The validation should give you an indication of which value is incorrect.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: In the cases known to date, the error was always due to an incorrectly filled colour configuration.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
**Tip**: Use Shopware's colour picker to obtain a valid colour value.
{% endhint %}
