Publishing your storefront

Use Softune Save for drafts and Publish for live β€” including the real 1–2 minute propagation note on the storefront.

2 min readUpdated Aug 20, 2026

Softune separates draft work from the live storefront. Save keeps editor changes as a local draft. Publish pushes them live. Softune surfaces a note that changes can take 1–2 minutes to appear on the live site.

Pre-publish checklist

  • 1. Preview Home and a product page on desktop and mobile
  • 2. Confirm Header links and announcement bar copy are correct
  • 3. Confirm featured products are in stock and priced correctly
  • 4. Confirm Payments and Courier match how you actually fulfill
  • 5. Confirm FAQs and legal pages from Site Settings if the checklist required them

Save, then Publish

  • 1. Click Save to store the draft in Softune
  • 2. Click Publish when you intend customers to see the changes
  • 3. Wait 1–2 minutes before judging the live storefront
  • 4. Open Softune hostname or custom domain in a private window
  • 5. Spot-check Home, a category, and a product page

If something looks wrong after Publish, return to the editor, fix it, Save, and Publish again β€” Softune’s delay note applies each time.

Getting Started completion

Publish your site is the final step on Softune’s 9-step Getting Started checklist. Completing it (with the other eight) removes the Setup section from the sidebar.
