Websites and custom domains

Where: Settings → Websites · Settings → Configuration → Custom domains

Settings → Websites defines your storefront site(s): Name, Domain, Default currency (3-letter code), and Default locale. Validation: “Name, domain, and a 3-letter currency are required.”; a duplicate domain fails with “Save failed (domain may already be in use)”.

Figure: Settings → Websites — domain, default currency and locale per storefront

Settings → Websites — domain, default currency and locale per storefront

note

The website’s Default currency is also the display currency for your entire admin console — prices, orders, dashboards, everything. Set it correctly before entering prices.

Custom domains​

A website's Domain is the address it answers on. To add more — a second brand domain, or a move from a platform subdomain to your own — use Settings → Configuration → Custom domains:

  1. Type the domain (e.g. shop.yourcompany.com) and press Add domain.
  2. The panel shows the DNS record to create — Add this DNS record at your domain provider, then click Verify — with Copy name and Copy value buttons. Add it at your registrar or DNS host.
  3. Press Verify. TLS is issued automatically on the first visit.
  4. Make primary switches which domain is canonical; Remove detaches one.
note

Each storefront answers only on the domains configured for it — there is no fallback. A visitor who opens any other host sees "No store is configured for this address".
