Sellers¶

For sellers and their products to appear in search results, be public and purchasable by customers, Sellers need to:

be verified by admin
be connected with Stripe
have their shop visibility marked as public in their profile

Without meeting all aforementioned criteria, neither Sellers nor their products would be visible in search or publicly viewable

criteria must be met for sellers and products to be visible in search

After the criteria are met, products become searchable, viewable and purchasable for customers

after criteria met sellers and products become viewable and searchable

Moderation¶

Tip

For further details please see moderation specific documentation.

If seller is waiting for their profile to be approved by administrator, they cannot access many pages, except their profile/account details pages. They are also asked to fill their profile details so admin can approve them

sellers prompted to fill profile while in moderation

Restricted Object Viewing¶

Viewing an object could be restricted depending on state of object.

A seller can decide at any time to unlist themselves and their products from public search and public access. Once they decide do so, they just need to select Unpublished in Store Visibility dropdown.
