If you ever need to access the code files for your theme (the CSS, HTML, jQuery etc) you can do so via the Weebly Code editor. This tool lets you edit your theme within weebly rather than editing a file and re-uploading it.

Accessing the raw files for your theme is easy. Just click on the "edit HTML / CSS" button in the "theme" panel of your weebly dashboard.

It is as simple as that.. Once you've clicked this button, the code editor will load up and you'll be able to view and edit all of the files for your theme via the panel on the left. Header types are your html files and everything else will sit underneath the "assets" section

One of the things we always recommend, especially if you are planning to make a customization of your Weebly theme, is to take a backup of the theme itself.

Please note, we are not talking about taking a backup of your entire website, just the Theme that you've got installed on your Website in the Weebly Dashboard.

You may even want to do this if you're using a standard weebly theme.

The reason you might want to do this is because, if you are making a custom change to your Theme and are not 100% confident the changes you're making will work, a backup will give you a working version you can revert to if you accidentally cause an issue or break something. It's so much easier to restore to the last known working version than trying to undo any changes you've made.

Remember, taking a backup is totally Free, and takes a matter of seconds. If you do it regularly you won't run into frustrations if something goes wrong.

Taking an export (or backup) of your Weebly theme couldn't be easier. just follow these two simple steps

1. Go to the code editor
Click on Themes > Edit HTML / CSS

2. click "export theme"
The file will then either automatically download to your "downloads" area or you'll be asked where to save the file on your computer.. 

It's true, Webfire themes has just launched another brand new Weebly theme called Bio. This is the perfect Resume Weebly template. The perfect theme for a Personal Biography, Resume, CV or Portfolio Website.

​We've spent some time researching the best style for this type of website, and the trend we saw was that commonly personal profile, Resume, Biography and CV typed websites were dark rather than light. We conclude the reason for this was because it's much easier to make something stand out against a dark background than a light one... and when you're building a Resume or Personal Biography site, you want to force your visitors to see certain things more than others.

This is why we've made Bio dark, moody and really quite sexy. This theme comes packed full of the normal features you'd expect from a Webfire Theme, and you can see the full list of specs on our product page
