CoNote
ShopifyCoNote

Shopify change history, across the whole store, not one theme.

Shopify keeps a version history for your theme — but nothing logs the app installs, price edits, and settings changes that move your store just as much. CoNote will put every store change on one shared timeline, beside the deploys and campaigns from the same day.

Finding your history

Your Shopify change history: today, and once CoNote is live

The manual way · inside Shopify

Where to find it today

Some of it’s tracked — the rest you reconstruct:

  1. 1

    Open the theme version history

    In Online Store → Themes, open the theme editor; the version history lists past saves so you can see and restore an earlier version of that theme.

  2. 2

    Check the theme library for publishes

    The Themes page shows which theme is live, but not a dated log of every publish — you infer it from the library and your own memory.

  3. 3

    Scan your installed apps

    Settings → Apps and sales channels lists what’s installed today, but there’s no store-wide log of when each app was added, updated, or removed.

  4. 4

    Hunt down price and product edits

    Product pages don’t keep an edit history — to see when a price changed you check staff memory, order records, or an app you’ve added for it.

  5. 5

    Piece the timeline together yourself

    Nothing lines theme, app, and price changes up against each other — or against your deploys and campaigns — so you assemble that by hand.

The CoNote way · coming soon

Where you’ll find it once it’s live

Connect Shopify once. After that it’ll be seconds:

  1. 1

    Open your CoNote timeline

    Theme publishes, app changes, and price edits will all be waiting in one place — no theme-by-theme digging.

  2. 2

    Jump to the day sales moved

    Scan the day conversion dipped; the theme publish or price change will be stamped right there.

  3. 3

    See it beside everything else

    The store change will sit next to that day’s deploys, campaigns, and incidents — the cause is obvious.

Checkout conversion dropped over the weekend. Did someone publish a theme change?

Maybe — a theme went live Friday, but I’m not sure what changed in it.

Sara09:28

Or was it an app? A few were updated last week too.

No single place tells me what changed when. I’ll dig through each.

Theme, apps, prices — three places, no shared record.

Theme version history answers “what changed in this theme?” — never the question you actually have: “what changed across the whole store around the day my sales moved?”

  • Theme history only — app installs and price edits go unlogged
  • One theme at a time — no store-wide record of publishes
  • Locked inside Shopify admin, where marketing and leadership rarely look
  • Never lined up against the deploy or campaign from the same day

Once Shopify is connected, the change that did it will already be on the timeline — “Theme v12 published — checkout layout changed” — stamped to the minute, next to every other change from that day.

How it works

Connect once. Then it’ll log itself.

  1. 01

    Install the CoNote app

    A one-time install from your Shopify admin — no theme edits, no developer time. CoNote will read the store events you choose to track.

  2. 02

    Every change logs itself

    From then on, theme publishes, app changes, and price edits will land on the timeline with a readable title and the moment they happened.

  3. 03

    Read it in context

    The store change sits beside that day’s deploys, campaigns, and incidents. When sales move, you scan one page instead of three corners of the admin.

What lands on your timeline

  • Theme publishes — which theme went live and when
  • App installs, updates, and removals
  • Price changes on the products you track

A theme publish on its own is a shrug. Next to the campaign and the conversion dip from the same day, it’s an answer.

Questions

Shopify change tracking, answered.

Partly. Each theme has a version history in the theme editor that lets you see and restore past saves, but there’s no store-wide log of theme publishes, app installs, or price changes — those you track by memory or with extra apps.

Not yet — it’s coming soon. You can start your CoNote logbook now and connect the tools that are already live; we’ll switch Shopify on automatically the day it ships.

No. Connecting Shopify will be a one-time app install from your admin — no theme edits and no developer time.

Theme publishes, app installs and updates, and price changes on the products you track — each as a plain-language entry with the time it happened. CoNote only reads the events you choose; it never changes your store.

Yes — for the products you choose to track, a price change lands on the timeline with the old and new value and the time it changed, which Shopify itself doesn’t keep a history of.

Theme history covers one theme, inside the editor. CoNote will put theme publishes, app changes, and price edits on a shared timeline next to your deploys, campaigns, and incidents — so the whole team can line a store change up against the day a metric moved.

Only your team. Every entry is scoped to your team, and connecting Shopify won’t expose your store to anyone outside it.
