SSS Theme Preset Guide: Choose, Customize & Reset a Style

A preset gives you a group of matching design choices. It is a starting point, not a locked template.

Best order: preset → background → colors → text → cards → effects.

Choose where the preset should go

SSS Studio

Apply a preset to Whole Home or one Room. It stays in a Private Draft until you publish.

Classic Backup

Choose Profile Style Preset there only when you want to change the public Whole Home right away.

Save means different things: Saved in Studio means private. Saved in Classic Backup means public.

What a preset can change

  • Gives the design a coordinated starting direction.
  • Can affect the background, colors, text, cards, borders, and accents.
  • Does not lock anything. You can change every setting afterward.
  • Can be used for Whole Home or one Room in Studio.

Whole Home and Room presets

Whole Home

Creates the shared starting style for Rooms that follow Whole Home.

One Room

Gives one Room a different mood without changing every Room.

Publish one Room

Select only that Room before publishing.

Publish several Rooms

Select several only when they should all receive the same design.

How later changes work

  • A preset fills in a group of matching design choices.
  • Later background, color, text, widget, navigation, effect, Layout, and CSS changes can replace parts of it.
  • A Room can follow most of Whole Home while changing only a few things.
  • When Whole Home changes, any settings still shared by the Room can update too.
  • Old manual choices can remain after you select a new preset.

What “None” means

  • None removes the selected preset choice.
  • It does not erase every background, color, font, effect, sticker, Layout, or CSS setting.
  • A Room can still look customized because its other choices remain.
  • Reset one section at a time when you want a cleaner design.

Safe reset choices

Remove only the preset

Choose None, save, and see which manual choices remain.

Clean up Whole Home

Reset Background, Colors, Typography, Effects, Layout, and Code one section at a time.

Return every Room

Use Reset All Rooms only when you truly want to remove every Room-only design.

Common fixes

The preset seems to do nothing

Old individual settings or CSS may be covering parts of it.

The design looks wrong

The background, overlay, text, or card transparency may clash with the preset.

Desktop and phone differ

Check phone Fit, Focus, text size, card width, and effect strength.

Preview changed but public did not

The preset is still in a Private Draft. Publish the correct destination.

Every Room changed

Whole Home changed, so Rooms that follow it changed too.

Only one Room changed

That Room was selected or was a publish destination.

None did not remove the look

Other settings, Layout, stickers, effects, or CSS remain.

A new preset clashes with the old design

Reset the most likely section or try the preset in a cleaner Room Private Draft.

FAQs

Should I choose a preset first?

Yes. It is most useful before detailed changes.

Does a preset lock my design?

No. You can change every part afterward.

Does None reset the entire profile?

No. It removes the preset choice, not every saved setting.

Can a Room use a different preset?

Yes. Choose the Room, save its Private Draft, Preview it, and publish it.

Why can the same preset look different on two profiles?

Backgrounds, content, colors, effects, Layout, CSS, and Room choices change the final result.

What should I adjust right after choosing one?

Background and overlay, then colors and text, then effects.

How many changes should I make before checking?

One meaningful layer at a time.

What is the safest way back?

Undo the latest choice before resetting the whole preset or Digital Home.

Can I still choose presets in Classic Backup?

Yes. Remember that Classic Backup changes the public Whole Home.
