Domain Issue One day after buying from shopify

Technical Q&A

Topic summary

Main issue: After purchasing a Shopify-managed domain yesterday, the user first saw multiple red error messages (now gone). Visiting “postureprot ector.store” currently returns a “DNS resolution error.” Earlier, the site showed as “insecure.” The store’s SSL certificate status is still “pending.”

Context/terms:

  • DNS resolution error: the domain name isn’t being translated to an IP address, so the site can’t be reached.
  • SSL certificate: a digital certificate that enables HTTPS (secure connection). “Pending” indicates it hasn’t been fully issued/activated yet.

Current state and concerns:

  • Errors have changed from general red warnings to DNS resolution issues, with SSL not yet active.
  • The user is unsure whether these transitions are normal post-purchase behavior and is seeking clarification.

Outcome: No solutions or actionable steps provided yet; the thread remains unresolved/ongoing.

I bought my domain yesterday and was bombarded by messages all in red yesterday saying there were multiple errors. Those are gone now but whenever I go to the domain “postureprotector.store”, it says DNS resolution error

now. Before, the site was insecure. I’m not sure if this is part of the process. If you can help me understand this thank you so much.

It also says the SSL certificate is still pending if that means anything.
