This is a set of website configuration not found with the rest, it might seem like a lot less than the main website configuration, but this has a lot of elements in there that are important to the website.

We’ll look through what this can do. Firstly, to get to this, you need to go to Content > Design > Configuration.

In here you will see the theme(s) that your website. You can have differents themes by scope, meaning that the different websites you have within this installation of Magento, can have different designs.

To make changes to a particular website/theme, click edit. In here you will see:

Theme

This is the theme used on the front end of the website. This where the design theme of the website is set. The dropdown will let you change the theme.

Design rule

Set a different theme for specific user agents/browsers. If you need to set up a custom design for specific browsers – think older, discontinued browsers – this can set this up to help with compatibility.

HTML head

This contains a number of important elements that are found in the head tags of the HTML:

• Favicon: You can set the image here, you can use most popular image file types.
• Default Page Title: This sets the default page title for the pages unless one is added. The page title is the title you see on the browser tab and the link you will see in search engines when your website appears.
• Page Title Prefix: The prefix title is added before the page title to create a two- or three-part title.
• Page Title Suffix: The suffix title is added after the page title.
• Default Meta Descriptions: This is the description you will see in the search results when your website appears. This will be the default over on all pages unless one is set for the page.
• Default Meta Keywords: A series of keywords that describe your store, each separated by a comma.
• Scripts & Style Sheets: This is where you can add code to the header, this is normally used for adding sitewide scripts like Google Tag Manager or Hotjar. [Find out more about adding tracking scripts].
