Website Design workspace versus Experience Builder
Key Takeaway
Branding and look changes, such as your logo, fonts, colors and button styles, go in the Website Design workspace. Changes to components, pages or navigation, such as default store navigation and the footer Link List menu, go in Experience Builder.
A B2B Commerce store has two design tools. The Website Design workspace handles basic branding, such as your logo, fonts, colors and button styles. You never leave the Commerce app to use it. Experience Builder handles advanced design, such as configuring store components, pages and navigation. Before you change your store, decide which of the two tools owns the change.
Choosing between the two tools
Use a simple rule to choose. Branding and look changes belong in the Website Design workspace: your logo, fonts, colors, button styles, page text and images, and the header layout. Changes to components, pages or navigation belong in Experience Builder.
Mei is the admin for a B2B store that sells lab supplies. Her marketing team sends three requests on the same day. First, they want the store's buttons in the company's new teal color. Button styles are a branding change, so Mei makes the change in the Website Design workspace. Second, they want new text in one section of the home page. Page text is also a look change, so Mei stays in the Website Design workspace. Third, they want buyers to be able to enter a coupon code on the Cart page. Cart page changes belong in Experience Builder, so Mei opens Experience Builder and adds a coupon code field to the Cart page.
