FIX Shopify Opening Soon Page & How to Remove Opening Soon on Shopify & Launch Store 2026 Easily
By Impran M N
The Shopify "Opening Soon" page keeps your store hidden behind a password screen, which is useful while building but needs to be turned off when you're ready to sell. This guide shows how to remove that page and update your store settings so customers can shop right away.
01Open your online store preferences
Go to your Shopify Admin's online store settings, where the password protection and store visibility controls live.
02Disable password protection
Turn off the password page toggle so visitors no longer land on the "Opening Soon" screen when they reach your store.
03Confirm your plan is active
Make sure your store is on a paid Shopify plan, since a store still in trial or unpaid status may not allow full public access.
04Update store settings for launch
Review your general store settings, such as domain and checkout, to confirm everything is configured correctly before going public.
05Publish and verify the live store
Save your changes and visit your storefront in a private browser window to confirm the "Opening Soon" page is gone and the store loads normally.
Frequently asked questions
Why is my Shopify store still showing Opening Soon?
This is typically because password protection is still enabled in your online store settings and needs to be manually turned off.
Do I need a paid plan to remove the password page?
Yes, disabling the password page generally requires your store to be on an active paid Shopify plan rather than still in trial.
Will removing the password page affect my existing setup?
No, it only changes visibility — your products, theme, and settings remain exactly as configured.
Can I bring the Opening Soon page back later?
Yes, you can re-enable password protection at any time if you need to take the store offline again temporarily.
