What does the country selector setting in theme customization mean and how does it work?

[Cashimir]

Hi!

I’ve recently noticed there’s a country selector in the theme customizer and it seems to determine what content gets shown in what region:

While I do sell in the listed countries, I have no interest in customizing the theme country by country manually. Any localizations I need have been made in liquid within the theme.

I noticed changing the default content does not make the same changes in the other listed regions. I’m now paranoid that this is some functionality I’ve missed and my site content is missing recent developments in my theme in some regions.

What does this country selector do? How do I make sure the theme and site content is the same no matter where the user visits the site from (aside from liquid specific localizations)? Is this something I need to switch off if I just want to manage a single version of the site in all regions?

Hi @Cashimir

You can go to your store admin > Settings > Markets > International > Edit > Countries/regions > Edit, select only country that you want to appear.

Hi,

Can you share your store?

Hi @Cashimir , this is a market selector which enables you to customize storefronts by market. If you want them to be all the same, don’t use this (and revert to default).
