Re: How do I fix my store name?

How can I correct the vendor name in my online store?

I'm creating a store called "Pure Soaps" and when I went to register my Shopify account it made me pick a store name that would serve as my shopify url.

I tried to pick the store name "puresoaps" but that was already taken, so I just submitted "puresoaps1" as the store name.

 

Since I already had my own domain (PureSoaps.org) I figured this wasn't gonna be an issue anyways and would be easily changed when I linked my domain.

Anyways, I linked my domain easily enough, but I'm still seeing "puresoaps1" in places where I do not have the option to change it.


For example: On product listings it gives me the option to display a vendor name. And the vendor name being displayed is "puresoaps1". But I don't want it to say that...

I want it to just say "Pure Soaps" in any place where my site name automatically appears, not "puresoaps1".

So far I've already gone into Settings > Store Details > Basic Information > Edit and changed my store name to "Pure Soaps".

However, that change is not being reflected on my site in any place, and I'm still seeing "puresoaps1" in places where the name is automatically displayed.

Can anyone help me to correct my store name so that it reflects my domain PureSoaps.org?

@PureSoaps If it's vendor name that you're seeing "puresoaps1", maybe should try to change the vendor name instead?

When you said that I figured I should double check the product pages, and sure enough the option to change it is there.

I guess it auto-populated with the default store name without me noticing that field was even there. But since it was still it's own independent field, changing the store name didn't change the field contents, and they have to be updated manually.


Anyways, thanks.
