Replo has two separate site builders - one which uses an AI-based workflow to publish directly to your domain, or a subdomain of your domain, and one specifically for Shopify sites which integrates directly into your Shopify theme using a drag-and-drop interface. The right one for you depends on whether you’re running your business on Shopify and how you want to build and publish content.
If you’re already running your business on Shopify, you can choose between two tools based on how you want to build and publish:
Best for: Shopify merchants who want to build pages directly into their existing Shopify theme.The Classic Theme Editor is built specifically for Shopify Themes. You create pages using a template-driven workflow and publish them directly to your Shopify store’s domain.

Key Features

  • Native Shopify Integration — Publish pages directly to your Shopify store’s domain with your existing cart and checkout.
  • Template-Driven Workflow — Choose a template from the Replo Marketplace, customize using components, and publish.
  • Seamless Theme Integration — Pages live on your Shopify domain and use your store’s existing infrastructure.

When to Use This

Use the Classic Theme Editor if you want to:
  • Publish pages directly to your Shopify store domain
  • Keep your entire storefront on Shopify
  • Work within a template-based workflow
If you’re not running your business on Shopify, use Replo Sites, which lets you host products entirely within Replo, using Replo’s built-in cart and checkout. You can also integrate with external commerce platforms.
