Run this checklist before the domain points at the new store. A launch is a DNS change plus a test order, not a redesign. Most items are already configured at setup. You are confirming them.

Before you point DNS

Order mail is the launch check. Campaigns after launch are covered in email marketing for FFL ecommerce.

Test order

  1. Place a non-regulated accessory order to a real inbox you control.
  2. Place a regulated test item and select a transferring dealer.
  3. Confirm the order lands in WooCommerce and, if Cockpit is on, in the fulfillment queue.
  4. Refund or void the tests. Do not ship them.

Go live

  1. Confirm the password or coming-soon gate is off only when the checks above pass.
  2. Point the domain. Allow DNS to settle.
  3. Load the storefront on a phone that is not logged into wp-admin.
  4. Watch the first real orders the same day. Reply to transfer questions yourself until the pattern is obvious.
If a check fails, do not cut DNS. Open a ticket with the failed row and a screenshot. Compliance context for the store you are launching: Selling guns on WooCommerce.
