How to Preview Your Store Before Launch

Store > Store Management > Preview Store is confirmed as the tool for viewing your live storefront without leaving the dashboard (see Category 1, Article 5 “Understanding Your Shopiators Merchant Dashboard“). This article covers how to use it effectively before launch.

What to review in Preview Store

Homepage — does it reflect your brand and lead customers toward products?

Navigation — does every menu item go where you expect? (see Article 14 “How to Configure Store Navigation“)

A handful of product pages — photos, price, and description all displaying correctly

Any pages you’ve added — About, Contact, policies (see Article 15 “How to Add Important Store Pages”)

Preview like a first-time visitor, not a merchant

💡 Tip: It’s easy to only check the things you personally set up. Instead, try to browse Preview Store the way a stranger would — start from the homepage, find a product through navigation rather than a direct link, and go all the way to checkout.
