Layout template

What are Layout templates?

Layout templates let you build reusable headers and footers in FoxStudio and apply them to any Foxify page (created with FoxStudio). Instead of copying sections manually across pages, you design once and assign the template wherever you need it.

Note: The number of published layout templates you can have depends on your plan. Go to Plans & Pricing on your app dashboard to see your limit.

When to use layout templates

Use Layout templates when you need a header or footer that's different from your Shopify theme's default — without rebuilding it on every page.

Best fits for:

A campaign landing page with a simplified header (logo only, no full nav)
A seasonal promo page (Black Friday, Mother's Day) with a branded banner header
A lead capture or waitlist page where you want to hide the default footer
Any set of pages that share the same custom header/footer and need to stay in sync

How is this different from just adding a section to a page?

Adding a section manually

Quick setup

Before you start: Set the page's layout to Blank layout before applying a Layout template. This prevents your theme's default header/footer from showing at the same time.

Part 1 — Create your layout template

Open Layouts manager

In the FoxStudio editor, click Layouts manager in the left sidebar.

Create a new layout

Click Create new layout.

Design your header and footer

Part 2 — Apply the template to a page

Navigate to the page you want to apply the layout to.

Set your Layout settings

Click Update.

Expected result: Your page now shows your custom header and footer. Any future edits to the template automatically update all pages using it.

Part 3 — Manage Foxify layout templates

From Layouts manager, click the three-dot menu on any layout:

Action	When to use
Rename	Give it a clear name
Duplicate	Start a new layout from an existing one — useful for seasonal variations
Delete	Remove unused layouts. Cannot be undone. Before deleting: If the layout is applied to any pages, you'll be prompted to reassign those pages first.

🟢 Published — visible on live pages

⚫ Draft — preview only

FAQs

Can I apply the same layout to multiple pages?

Yes — one template can be used across as many Foxify pages as you want.

If I edit a live template, do changes apply immediately?

Yes. All pages using that template update automatically when you save and publish.

How do I go back to my theme's default header and footer?

Open Page settings → set Layout templates to None → switch Page layout back to Theme layout.

How many layout templates can I have?

The limit depends on your plan. Go to Plans & Pricing page to see your current limit.
