Creating and Setting Up a Store

Path: Admin > Settings

This chapter covers all store settings divided into two categories: Basic Setup and Additional Setup. Here you configure every aspect of your store's operation.

Demo Store

When you register, a demo store is automatically created based on your username. This store is intended for getting familiar with the system and testing features before going live.

TIP

You can clear or populate your demo store with your own products at any time.

Custom Domain Setup

1. Add the domain in the portal
2. In your domain's DNS management, create a CNAME record pointing to the platform
3. Add a TXT record with the verification token generated by the portal
4. Wait for the SSL certificate to be issued — this happens automatically via Cloudflare
