How Do I Put My Shopify Store Under Construction?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 6:56 pm

If you’re working on a new Shopify store, or making changes to an existing one, you might want to put it in “under construction” mode. This hides your store from the public while you’re working on it, and lets you control when customers can see it. In this article, we’ll show you how to do that.

There are a few reasons why you might want to put your Shopify store in “under construction” mode. Maybe you’re making some changes to the design, or adding new products. Whatever the reason, putting your store in “under construction” mode is a good way to make sure that only people who need to see it can see it.

When your store is in “under construction” mode, it’s not visible to the public. Only people who have the link to your store can see it. That means that you can work on your store without worrying about customers seeing half-finished changes.

Putting your Shopify store in “under construction” mode is easy. Just follow these steps:

1) Log in to your Shopify admin

2) Go to Online Store > Preferences

3) Under “Store visibility,” select “I am currently making changes to my store.”

4) Save your changes

That’s all there is to it! Once you’ve followed those steps, your store will be in “under construction” mode and only people with the link will be able to see it.

PRO TIP: If you are considering putting your Shopify store under construction, there are a few things you should be aware of. First, this will disable your store from accepting orders. Second, any existing orders will not be processed until you re-enable your store. Finally, your customers will not be able to access your store or any of its content while it is under construction.

If you need to make changes to your store but don’t want anyone to see it, putting it in “under construction” mode is a good way to do that. It’s easy to do, and it will make sure that only people who need to see your store can see it.
