Store Deletion Behavior Update

Modified on Thu, 7 May at 4:10 AM

What’s Improved?

We’ve refined the store deletion experience to ensure safer and more predictable behavior across the platform. Deleting a store will now only remove store-related pages, without impacting the rest of your website.

This update eliminates the risk of accidentally deleting the entire website when attempting to delete a store.

Key enhancements include:

  1. Scoped Store Deletion

    • Deleting a store from the Stores list will now remove only store-specific pages     Products List, Product Details, Cart, Checkout, Thank You).

    • Your main website pages (Home, About, etc.) will remain unaffected.

  2. Consistent Behavior Across Entry Points

    • Deleting a store from Store Settings follows the same behavior — only store pages are deleted.

    • Ensures consistency regardless of where the delete action is triggered.

  3. Website Deletion Remains Unchanged

    • Deleting a website from the Websites section will continue to delete the entire website, including any associated store pages.

    • Clear separation between “Delete Store” and “Delete Website” actions.

  4. Improved UI Clarity

    • Updated delete confirmation messaging to clearly communicate that only store-related pages will be deleted.

    • Reduces confusion and prevents unintended data loss.

How to Use It?

  1. Navigate to Stores and select the store you want to delete.

  2. Click on the three-dot menu or go into Store Settings.

  3. Click on Delete Store.

  4. Type DELETE in the confirmation modal and proceed.

Key Points to Note:

  • Only store pages are deleted — website pages remain intact.

  • Applies consistently across all store deletion entry points.

  • To delete the entire website (including store pages), use the Delete Website option under Website Settings.

  • This update significantly reduces the risk of accidental full-site deletion.
