🔌 Managing Plugins & Themes

WC Studio gives you full control over the appearance and functionality of your store through its built-in Plugin & Theme Management System. This guide walks you through how to install, activate, update, or remove both plugins and themes without ever leaving your WC Studio dashboard.

📍 Go to: WC Studio → Stores → Select a Store → Manage → Plugins & Themes


🔍 Filter Plugins & Themes by Status

Use filters at the top of the theme panel to sort themes by:
  • All – View every theme available in your store.
  • Active – See which theme is currently activated.
  • Inactive – Browse installed themes that are not in use.
  • Update Available – Quickly identify themes needing updates.
💡 Pro Tip: Always test new themes in a staging environment before applying to your live store.
