Storefront Guide
Hosted Storefronts and Website Builder
Configure guided customer commerce pages, branding, navigation, and publication.
A connected customer experience
The hosted storefront includes supported home, catalog, product, deals, reviews, about, support, account/library, cart, and checkout-entry surfaces. Its commerce structure is guided; it is not an unrestricted drag-and-drop website builder.
Website Builder lets you edit supported descriptive content, imagery, featured products, templates, and navigation/product ordering. Brand Manager supplies the supported shared identity and appearance.

Review and publish your site
-
Complete the brand
Set store identity, logos, palette, support, and policy links.
-
Prepare products
Use saved, correctly priced products with verified delivery and access configuration.
-
Edit supported page content
Choose the appropriate page/template and customize its supported fields rather than assuming every commerce structure is freely editable.
-
Preview responsive layouts
Inspect desktop, tablet, and mobile views, featured selection, links, and product ordering.
-
Save the intended state
Understand template editing/reset-to-source behavior before replacing customized content.
-
Connect your domain
Use your apex or subdomain and wait for ownership/routing and SSL readiness.
-
Test the customer journey
Browse product, cart, checkout, sign-in, library, support, and permitted newsletter behavior.
Embed installation is a separate choice
A full storefront embed coordinates commerce and routes on an existing website. A standalone embed is a supported individual surface and should not be mistaken for a complete cart/account/checkout installation. Use the matching embed guide and installation controls.
A guided store, not a blank canvas
Build homepage, catalog, product, deals, reviews, about, support, and account experiences around the product catalog. Edit descriptive content, media, featured products, and supported templates while cart, checkout, ownership, and delivery retain their connected commerce structure.

Edit with a clear publication boundary
-
Choose the website style
Open Website design and compare Immersive with Game World. The choice coordinates all supported page templates rather than selecting a different style for each page.
-
Arrange content
Within the selected style, edit the supported page content, media, and featured products. Navigation, footer, and page availability remain separate workspaces.
-
Preview the layouts
Use Preview website to switch pages, desktop/tablet/mobile size, and light/dark appearance. Preview controls do not change the saved site.
-
Save the intended changes
Choose Use Immersive or Use Game World, then explicitly save. Review unsaved edits and version conflicts. A restored history entry loads for review; it is not published merely by selecting it.
Menus, footer, and customer routes
Create nested navigation using internal pages, products, categories, external destinations, and saved links. Organize footer columns, move or duplicate supported entries, and choose social links. A page being enabled, appearing in navigation, and a product being listed are different settings.
Check newsletter readiness and test the configured signup path before promoting it. Page design does not create marketing consent or bypass sending readiness.

Build the storefront
Marketplace art does not replace your website by default
Your developer storefront keeps its current product artwork unless you choose Use this artwork on my site too in Marketplace Assets and save that preference. Marketplace placement approval, storefront artwork preference, and product publication are separate decisions. Turn the preference off to use the original product images again.
Previously saved artwork preferences
Older profiles with a saved storefront background can retain that established artwork choice even when the newer Use this artwork on my site too setting was not saved explicitly. An explicit on or off selection takes precedence. Review the current preview before changing the preference; normal preparation preserves active assets.
