Publishing makes your EcomWize page live on your Shopify store. Your sections, brand styles, and content are all pushed to your Shopify theme automatically.
Before publishing, make sure you have:
A connected Shopify store (see Store Connection)
A Starter or Pro plan (the Free plan does not support publishing)
A page with at least one section
All image elements filled in (empty images will cause publish errors)
Open the Publish modal
In the builder, click the Publish button in the top toolbar. The Publish modal will open showing your page details and publishing options.
Select your store
Choose which connected Shopify store to publish to. If you only have one store connected, it will be pre-selected. The store dropdown shows all your connected stores.
Configure page settings
Before publishing, make sure your page settings are configured:
Page title - The title that appears on Shopify
Handle (URL slug) - The URL path for the page (e.g., landing-page becomes yourstore.com/pages/landing-page)
Meta description - SEO description for search engines
Template type - Page template or product template (see Template Types)
You can access these settings via the settings icon in the Publish modal.
Click Publish
Click the Publish (or Update if re-publishing) button. A progress bar will appear tracking the publishing process.
Wait for completion
The publish process takes 10-30 seconds depending on the number of sections. Do not close the modal while publishing is in progress.
View your published page
Once complete, a success message appears with a direct link to your published page on Shopify. Click the link to view your live page.
After successful publishing:
The page status changes from "draft" to "published"
The publish timestamp is recorded
You receive a direct link to view your live page on Shopify
The Publish modal shows a progress bar during the publishing process.
If an error occurs during publishing, the progress bar stops and an error message is displayed with details about what went wrong.
Error: "Some images are missing. Please make sure all images are filled in."
This occurs when one or more image elements in your sections have no image set (they still show the default placeholder). Shopify requires all image fields to have valid URLs.
Fix: Go through each section and make sure every image element has an image uploaded or selected from the media library.
Error: "No Shopify store found. Please connect a store first."
You need a connected Shopify store to publish. Go to the Stores page and connect a store.
Error: "Payment required"
This appears if your subscription payment has failed or if you are on the Free plan. Publishing requires an active Starter or Pro subscription.
Error related to published page count
Each plan has a limit on the number of published pages:
Starter: Up to 10 published pages
Pro: Unlimited published pages
To publish more pages, either unpublish an existing page or upgrade your plan.
After the initial publish, any changes you make in the builder are not automatically pushed to Shopify. To update your live page:
Make your changes in the builder
Open the Publish modal
The modal will show "Update" instead of "Publish," indicating this is a re-publish
Click Update to push the latest changes to Shopify
