Why is my new online store locked and how can I resolve it?

Shopify Discussion

Last week, I created my new store as soon as I paid for a domain, I got locked out and the link to the store was broken.

Reached out to support, after several attempts, and I couldn’t find a solution, on the 5th, I got the message below;
