Quick Answer #
To customize your gift registry pages, go to your Gift Registry Guru Dashboard > General Settings > Registry Page Display Settings. From here you can control the styling of the registry page background, text, product grid, move to cart button, nav menu tabs, share page tabs, registry form fields, and more.
The Registry Page Display Settings in Gift Registry Guru give you full control over how your gift registry pages look and behave on your Shopify storefront. Whether you want to match your store’s brand colors, rearrange the registry form fields, or style the product grid — all of it is managed from one central settings page with no coding required.
