Theme Studio Install and First Theme Guide

This guide takes you from checkout to your first branded sub-account. It follows the steps on the activation page, plus a few habits that make the first theme go smoothly. The install takes about five minutes; the theme takes as long as you want to spend on details.

Before you buy: check three things

• Your own HighLevel agency account. Theme Studio installs at the agency level. A sub-account inside someone else's agency cannot run it.

• A white-label domain. This is the address your clients log in on, such as app.youragency.com. HighLevel includes the white-label desktop app from the Unlimited plan up; the Starter plan does not have it. No domain yet? Set that up first.

• Agency admin access. You need it to reach the Custom JavaScript setting.

Theme Studio comes as a Founder Pass, $497 once for the first 50 passes (the next 50 are $997), or $67 per month. Both cover one agency and one white-label domain with unlimited sub-accounts, and both have a 14-day money-back guarantee on the first payment.

Step 1: Get your activation code

After checkout, the confirmation page shows your activation code, and the same code arrives by email. It looks like TS-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX. Keep that email.

Step 2: Create your license

1. On the activation page, enter the code exactly as it appears in your email.

2. Enter your full white-label domain, for example app.myagency.com. Use the exact address your clients log in on.

3. Click Create my license & show the install snippet.

The page confirms the domain your license covers and shows your install snippet. Your code is used at this point, so copy the snippet and keep it somewhere safe. Theme Studio only runs on the domain you entered.

Step 3: Paste the snippet into HighLevel

1. In HighLevel, open Agency Settings → Company.

2. Scroll to Custom JavaScript, paste the snippet, and save.

3. Reload your agency.

If the Custom JavaScript field already holds other code, add the snippet next to it instead of replacing what is there. Your clients install nothing.

Step 4: Choose a starting look

Theme Studio opens inside HighLevel for agency users only. Clients see the theme, never the editor. There are two ways to start:

• Ready-made themes. Pick one of 20 curated themes, using the Light, Dark and Saved filters. The workspace repaints live as you choose.

• Brand AI. Describe your brand in a short brief and generate a starting point, then preview it live.

Have your brand kit ready before this step: logo files, hex colors and fonts. It turns the choice into a few minutes of decisions instead of guesswork.

Step 5: Make it yours

• Style, colors, fonts and text

• The sidebar menu: rename or hide items and swap icons

• The header buttons and your logos

• Pick & Style for a single element, with no CSS to write

• The sign-in page design, which the editor gives you as paste-ready Custom CSS for HighLevel's login page

Check the result on the screens your clients use most, not only the dashboard.

Step 6: Save and check a sub-account

Save the theme as your agency default. Every sub-account on your domain sees it on its next page load. Then:

1. Open a test sub-account and click through the main menu.

2. Log in as a client-level user in a private window to see exactly what clients see.

3. Check a phone browser. The theme applies in desktop, phone and tablet browsers on your domain; HighLevel's native mobile apps keep their own branding.

Step 7 (optional): A theme for one client

Open any sub-account in Theme Studio and save the theme for that sub-account only, instead of the whole agency, to give that client their own look. Every other client keeps the agency default.

What stays native

The funnel, website, form, email and workflow builders, the app marketplace and HighLevel's native mobile apps keep their own look so they keep working. Your data, workflows, routing and permissions are untouched. If HighLevel ships a screen Theme Studio does not recognize yet, that part shows in its native form until an update ships, with nothing for you to re-paste.

If something goes wrong

• Want the stock look back? Switch the theme off inside Theme Studio and stock HighLevel returns without a reload. Your saved theme is kept. Removing the snippet from Custom JavaScript removes Theme Studio entirely.

• Lost your code or entered the wrong domain? Email support@businesstoolbox.io and include your purchase email.
