linking website to shopify

Topic summary

Goal: Link Shopify product listings to an external product page (AliveShoes) so clicks redirect to the original store.

Current context:

  • Shopify store URL shared but is password-protected (not live).
  • External product URL provided (AliveShoes).

Guidance provided:

  • If moving the existing domain to Shopify, a migration is needed (products, customers, orders, redirects).
  • If not migrating, link changes should be handled on the original website side.

Open issues:

  • The user asked whether a “pixel code” is needed; no clear answer was given. (A pixel typically tracks activity rather than handles linking.)
  • The user does not control the external site; it’s a company-managed storefront. They’re waiting on that company’s instructions for connecting to Shopify.
  • Another participant asked whether AliveShoes provided a solution and noted the absence of a Shopify app.

Status and next steps:

  • No resolution yet. Awaiting a response from AliveShoes/company on how to implement the redirect or integration, or alternative guidance on configuring links from Shopify.
