Settings Overview

The Settings page is where you configure all the core options for your store, from basic store information to payment gateways and shipping rates. Settings are organized into tabs for easy navigation.

Accessing Settings

Go to Admin > Settings from the admin sidebar. You will see a tabbed interface with the following sections:

Settings Sections

TabWhat You Configure
StoreStore name, currency, timezone, language, logo, and favicon
PaymentPayment gateways — Razorpay, Stripe, PayPal, and Cash on Delivery
ShippingShipping zones and rate tiers based on order subtotal
CouponsDiscount coupons with percentage or fixed amount discounts
EmailSMTP configuration for sending order notifications and emails
SEOGlobal SEO settings — meta title, description, and Open Graph image

TIP

After making changes to any settings tab, click Save to apply them. Changes take effect immediately on your storefront.

How Settings Work

Settings are stored as key-value pairs grouped by section. When you update a setting, it is saved to the database and takes effect right away — there is no need to restart anything or clear a cache.

Quick Setup Checklist

If you are setting up your store for the first time, here is the recommended order:

  1. Store Settings — Set your store name, currency, and upload your logo
  2. Payment Gateways — Enable at least one payment method so customers can pay
  3. Shipping — Set up shipping zones and rates for your delivery areas
  4. Email — Configure SMTP so customers receive order confirmations and status updates
  5. SEO — Set your default meta title and description for search engines
  6. Coupons — Optionally create discount codes for promotions

WARNING

At minimum, you must enable at least one payment gateway before customers can place orders. We recommend setting up your store settings and payment gateways first.
