Stores are broken into two pieces: the store design, and the store control panel. The store design includes widgets that allow you to display your products on your site so customers can add products to their cart and checkout. The store control panel allows you to configure the content that will be available in the store widgets (for example, products and categories, product options and variations, shipping locations and cost, available payment methods, and so on).
Your store cannot contain more than one product or category with the same name.
The following widgets are available once you’ve added a store to your site and allow you to customize the design of your store. To see the store widgets and add them to your site, in the side panel, click Widgets and search for Store. Alternatively, click Sell Online, and then click Add Store Widget.
-
Main Store (this is added automatically when you add the store to your site)
-

You must include the Main Store widget on some page in your site in order for the store to function. Otherwise, customers will receive a 404 error when they click a product. Note that the Main Store widget is added by default when you add a store.
All of the store widgets allow for customizable design. For more information, see Customize Store Design (Third Party Store)
