Uninstall Online Store sales channel when only selling via Buy Button

Technical Q&A
1

Hello,

I only want to use the Buy Button sales channel. Can I safely uninstall the Online Store sales channel?

Up until now I just used password protection for the Online Store but after updating BuyButton.js to v3 the checkout redirects to the login page if password protection is enabled. But I don’t want the Online Store to be accessible.

Thanks

I wouldn’t recommend uninstalling the Online Store channel even if you only use the Buy Button because the Buy Button still relies on assets and routes from the Online Store. Instead, turn off password protection and use a redirect in your theme to block storefront access while keeping checkout fully functional.

Alright, thank you!
