CMS / Configuration / Global Variables

Comparison view for theme CSS variables, admin-configured values, theme defaults, related metadata, refresh, hide-configured filtering, and CSV export.

How to use this guide

Start with the main guide

Follow the explanation and examples first. Extra definitions and formulas are available below when you need them.

What this tab shows

The Global Variables tab is a comparison and export helper. It combines variables detected from the active theme with variables already configured in admin, then shows the configured value, the theme default value, and related metadata in one table.

How operators use it

  • Check whether a theme variable already has an admin override.
  • Compare the configured value with the theme default.
  • Hide variables that are already configured so missing overrides are easier to find.
  • Refresh the comparison snapshot after configuration changes.
  • Export the table to CSV for review or bulk preparation.

How to read the table

  • Variable name is the base variable identifier.
  • Configured value is the value currently selected from admin configuration rows.
  • Theme default value is the default value detected from the theme stylesheet.
  • Related metadata shows the selected key, type, countries, content state, and version count context.

Known caveats

  • This tab does not save data by itself. Changes still happen through the configuration editor, import, publish, set-active, enable/disable, or delete actions.
  • If theme variables cannot be loaded, the table can still show values that are already configured in admin.
  • Hide configured variables is only a display filter. It does not delete, disable, or unpublish anything.
  • Export CSV is generated in the browser from the current comparison snapshot.
