Link a domain name to Shopify

This guide explains how to link a domain name managed by Infomaniak to a Shopify hosting offer.

 

Preamble

  • A site created on Shopify cannot be exported to be hosted on third-party servers, such as those of Infomaniak for example.
  • It is therefore recommended to create the site directly with Infomaniak with the help of Site Creator or WordPress.

 

Associate Shopify with the domain name at Infomaniak

To link a site on Shopify with a domain name at Infomaniak:

  1. Click here to access the management of your domain on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?)
  2. Click directly on the name assigned to the domain in question.
  3. Click on Connect a service in the left sidebar.
  4. Click the blue Connect button on the Shopify tile:
    1. The A records will be replaced by a record with the value 23.227.38.65.
    2. The CNAME record "www" will be modified to have the value shops.myshopify.com.
  5. Click the Next button.
     

Web traffic will point to the Shopify servers a few hours later.

The mail configuration is not affected by these 2 DNS modifications.
