왜 당신은 Shopify Store Password-Protected?

When you’re working on a Shopify store, it starts off in password-protected mode. This is Shopify’s way of keeping things private while you’re setting everything up.

Only people with the password can view the site, which is useful when you’re still working on designs, testing apps, or setting up products.

But once you’re ready to go live, this password needs to come off. Otherwise, nobody can access your store except you and whoever has that password.
