00:00:07:07 - 00:00:08:12
So here we'll learn how to
00:00:08:12 - 00:00:11:21
create a new storefront
on your Infigo platform.
00:00:12:22 - 00:00:14:22
So a note on terminology.
00:00:14:22 - 00:00:17:28
When we're talking about platform,
I consider the platform
00:00:17:28 - 00:00:23:07
to be the top level of your Infigo system
covering your entire Infigo environment.
00:00:24:14 - 00:00:27:21
When we're talking about a storefront,
these are individual
00:00:27:21 - 00:00:30:28
sites
created and sitting within your platforms.
00:00:31:11 - 00:00:35:22
For example, you may have one storefront
dedicated to a larger customer.
00:00:36:16 - 00:00:39:21
This will be branded to them and contain
only their products.
00:00:40:15 - 00:00:44:13
Alternatively, a different storefront
may be home to a larger number
00:00:44:13 - 00:00:48:02
of your smaller customers,
where they access their products
00:00:48:02 - 00:00:51:02
on a generically branded site
00:00:51:11 - 00:00:53:10
where you figure package will likely have
00:00:53:10 - 00:00:56:10
a supplied number of storefronts.
00:00:56:16 - 00:00:59:14
For example,
you may be on a 15 storefront package.
00:01:00:25 - 00:01:01:25
We know that we do
00:01:01:25 - 00:01:04:22
grant one additional storefront
by default.
00:01:05:00 - 00:01:08:15
This is present for training, educational
and demo purposes.
00:01:09:11 - 00:01:12:13
In this tutorial
will demonstrate the process of creating
00:01:12:19 - 00:01:14:26
these new storefronts
00:01:16:06 - 00:01:17:00
to start off with,
00:01:17:00 - 00:01:19:10
if we go to the configuration section
00:01:20:15 - 00:01:24:10
and navigate down
to storefront management.
00:01:27:04 - 00:01:28:16
Click on the plus icon
00:01:28:16 - 00:01:31:06
and that will reveal this new table here.
00:01:32:03 - 00:01:34:15
Now, the resulting table
that you see will show
00:01:34:15 - 00:01:37:23
all of the storefronts
currently present within your platform.
00:01:38:05 - 00:01:41:24
So if you're on a brand new storefronts
and you're a brand new customer, chances
00:01:41:24 - 00:01:44:21
are you only have one entry
or maybe two entries in that
00:01:46:15 - 00:01:49:21
there isn't an entry in here
for the platform level itself.
00:01:49:22 - 00:01:52:26
So you can see that here
on my particular one
00:01:53:22 - 00:01:57:14
generally, you will not have to access
the platform level very often.
00:01:57:23 - 00:02:02:04
With most things being controlled
on a storefront level, when you do have
00:02:02:04 - 00:02:04:27
to access the platform level, the tutorial resources
00:02:05:08 - 00:02:08:16
will notify you of that.
00:02:11:12 - 00:02:12:21
But to create a new storefront,
00:02:12:21 - 00:02:16:10
click on Add New Storefront.
00:02:19:29 - 00:02:23:10
So at this point, a form will appear
which is prompting you to input
00:02:23:10 - 00:02:26:12
some fundamental storefront data prior
00:02:26:12 - 00:02:28:23
to initialization of that storefront.
00:02:29:23 - 00:02:33:00
So to begin, fill in the store details
section.
00:02:33:11 - 00:02:36:00
This comprises of a name.
00:02:36:00 - 00:02:41:16
So this is a storefront name
that you wish to appear on your system.
00:02:45:20 - 00:02:47:08
You have an alias,
00:02:47:08 - 00:02:51:14
so this is the URL
you wish to be appended to your platform.
00:02:51:14 - 00:02:54:10
URL in order
to access this particular storefront.
00:02:55:10 - 00:02:58:27
So for example,
if I put an alias of demo store
00:02:59:24 - 00:03:02:12
1708 23 here,
00:03:03:04 - 00:03:06:19
what that will mean is that to access
this particular storefront,
00:03:07:00 - 00:03:11:07
I would go to my platform URL,
which in this case is web to print
00:03:11:07 - 00:03:16:06
demo dot com and then it will
be forward slash demo store
00:03:17:18 - 00:03:19:20
17 oh 23
00:03:19:20 - 00:03:22:05
So that would allow me to access
that particular storefront
00:03:22:14 - 00:03:27:13
on my platform.
00:03:27:13 - 00:03:31:05
We have storefront type that can be either
B2B or B2C.
00:03:31:21 - 00:03:34:10
Some settings will be configured
during the initialization
00:03:34:10 - 00:03:37:15
process to facilitate easier
setup of each of these.
00:03:37:24 - 00:03:44:17
So this is a good thing to select
during the configuration process.
00:03:44:17 - 00:03:45:25
And then we have a description.
00:03:45:25 - 00:03:48:26
This is an admin
only import providing additional
00:03:48:26 - 00:03:51:08
storefront information
00:03:55:02 - 00:03:56:08
coming down a little bit further,
00:03:56:08 - 00:03:59:23
we have the ability to select
key colors on our storefront.
00:04:00:03 - 00:04:03:29
So primarily
background, primary and secondary
00:04:04:07 - 00:04:08:03
and an initial text cover.
00:04:08:03 - 00:04:11:20
So we'll start off
just by setting a primary color here.
00:04:12:28 - 00:04:15:09
So primary and secondary color is context.
00:04:15:15 - 00:04:20:01
These will be used in various locations
on your storefront and are often available
00:04:20:01 - 00:04:23:20
as a quick reference when you're
generating content for your site.
00:04:24:00 - 00:04:24:25
So this ensures
00:04:24:25 - 00:04:28:13
that you're always on brand
and you don't have to import the Hex code
00:04:28:23 - 00:04:31:08
or the RGB value
every time you want to use it
00:04:32:21 - 00:04:34:29
to actually specify a color in here.
00:04:34:29 - 00:04:37:07
So you click on the primary color.
00:04:37:07 - 00:04:41:21
You can use the actual color picker
to navigate through and find the code
00:04:41:21 - 00:04:42:16
you want.
00:04:42:18 - 00:04:46:28
Alternatively, you can input the relevant
data at the bottom of the screen here.
00:04:46:28 - 00:04:51:19
If you don't want to input RGB as it is
by default, click on these little arrows
00:04:51:19 - 00:04:57:06
and it will change
the format of the input.
00:04:57:06 - 00:05:01:04
At this point, you can upload a logo
that will be utilized on your storefront
00:05:01:04 - 00:05:02:10
and select the fonts
00:05:02:10 - 00:05:07:12
that you want to utilize by default.
00:05:07:12 - 00:05:10:05
Once you've completed
all of those options, click on okay
00:05:10:17 - 00:05:13:08
and your storefront initialization
will begin.
00:05:14:03 - 00:05:18:07
Now this initialization process
will usually take around 60 seconds.
00:05:19:03 - 00:05:21:24
If you want to take a look at the stage
at which
00:05:21:24 - 00:05:26:01
that initialization process is, it will be
put at the end of this particular list.
00:05:27:04 - 00:05:27:23
If I just go to
00:05:27:23 - 00:05:31:04
the end, you can see there
I have initialization pending
00:05:31:15 - 00:05:35:14
and this will update
as the initialization takes place.
00:05:35:14 - 00:05:38:11
If you want to refresh this list
to see how this process is going,
00:05:39:14 - 00:05:44:25
click on the refresh button here.
00:05:48:06 - 00:05:50:05
So our storefront is now initialized
00:05:50:05 - 00:05:52:29
and you can see that it's
put it into test status.
00:05:52:29 - 00:05:55:07
First of all, it does this by default.
00:05:55:18 - 00:05:58:20
Being in test status
just means that you can add customers
00:05:58:27 - 00:06:01:19
and place orders nice and freely.
00:06:01:24 - 00:06:03:08
And then when you're ready to turn, it's
00:06:03:08 - 00:06:06:12
to a live status
which will be covered in a later tutorial.
00:06:06:12 - 00:06:08:08
When we're ready to get to that stage,
00:06:08:08 - 00:06:12:14
it means that you can very easily
clear out all of that customer
00:06:12:18 - 00:06:17:07
and all of that order data
if you don't need it.
00:06:18:09 - 00:06:20:24
So what
we need to do now is to actually change
00:06:20:24 - 00:06:25:02
so that anything else that we start adding
in subsequent tutorials,
00:06:25:08 - 00:06:28:15
we're adding
to that particular storefront.
00:06:28:15 - 00:06:29:23
So this is very easy to do.
00:06:29:23 - 00:06:33:19
We just go to the switch storefront button
at the top of the screen.
00:06:34:05 - 00:06:37:01
Now, bear in mind,
you will only see this if you're logged in
00:06:37:01 - 00:06:39:22
as your platform administrator account,
00:06:40:16 - 00:06:42:21
because then you can control
various storefronts.
00:06:44:01 - 00:06:46:15
Click on Switch Storefront
00:06:49:01 - 00:06:51:22
that will show you a list
of all of your available storefronts.
00:06:52:02 - 00:06:56:08
You just need to navigate to the one
which you want to modify
00:06:56:21 - 00:07:05:25
and then click select.
00:07:10:22 - 00:07:11:15
Once selected,
00:07:11:15 - 00:07:15:12
you can verify
the correct storefront is now active at
00:07:15:12 - 00:07:20:18
the top of the screen.
