When you first create a WooCommerce shop, you are given a temporary URL. This is typically something like “your-site.com/?wc-api=XXXXXXXX”.
While this URL does work, it’s not very pretty or user-friendly. Fortunately, there is a way to change this URL so that it’s more presentable.
In order to change your WooCommerce shop URL, you will need to log into your WordPress dashboard. Once you are logged in, hover over the “WooCommerce” tab in the left-hand sidebar and click on “Settings”.
On the Settings page, click on the “Checkout” tab. Under the “Checkout Pages” section, you will see an option for “Shop Base Page”. Click on the “Edit” link next to this option.
On the next page, you will see a field for “Shop Page”. In this field, you will want to enter the slug for the page that you want to use as your shop base page. For example, if your shop page is currently located at “your-site.com/shop”, then you would enter “shop” into this field.
Once you have entered the slug for your shop base page, click on the “Save Changes” button at the bottom of the page. This will update your WooCommerce settings and change your shop URL to something more user-friendly.
Conclusion:
Changing your WooCommerce shop URL is a quick and easy way to make your site more user-friendly. All you need to do is log into your WordPress dashboard and update your settings. Once you have updated your settings, your shop URL will be updated automatically.
