Setting up a Shopping Cart to sell online - Changing the URL

Tyler MacDonald Updated by Tyler MacDonald

Step one: Check your store name!

In the below screen, Shop Slug is the string that give your account it's unique identity. It differentiates between the URL of each shopVOX account’s shopping cart URL. By default it is the subdomain of your account. So the highlighted string will be the URL. In this example the string will be: graphicsgraphix.shops.shopvox.com/

NOTE: Two things when entering a URL

  1. Do not add www in your URL
  2. Make sure you put a / at the end

How to point your own URL to this cart.

Most of the time, customers want to have their URL vs this auto-generated shopVOX url to make it look like their own web page.

Example Auto Generated URL -  https://graphicsgrafix.shops.shopvox.com

Example Custom URL - https://cart-new.shopvox.com 

You will need to add CNAME in your DNS hosting service and point that URL to shops.shopvox.com like below.

Once you have added your own shop domain and the first CNAME please contact our live chat support team or send an email to support@shopvox.com. Make sure to provide the custom URL you have chosen and indicate that the first CNAME has been added. There are some settings we would have to complete and we will provide a second CNAME for you to add in your DNS hosting service. Once you have completed this step as well please let us know. There is one final setting to be done on our end to complete the process and before the custom URL will work.

Note: Do not change the Domain Redirection url after we have done all the settings on our end. Please contact our support with the new custom url so that we can help you configure the setup for your new custom url.
