Why does my domain still look like bf178c.myshopify.com after purchase?

hello. Why does my domain look like this? “https://bf178c.myshopify.com/
I bought a domain but the URL is still like this. Help pls

Hi @Iboostgun ,

Did you buy the domain directly through Shopify or was it purchased from a third-party domain host? Does the domain you purchased appear when you head to Settings > Domains?

If you have your own domain added to your store successfully, you can then make it your primary domain. Your primary domain is what customers will see in their address bar when visting your store, and if you set your custom domain to be your primary domain, customers should then see this instead of your myshopify.com domain. This will be your primary domain by default until you change it.

I hope this helps but please let me know if you’re having any issues connecting your domain or setting your primary domain.

Your domain is working fine. It takes me to this domain.

Maybe you are seeing a cached version. Please check in incognito mode.
