A Shopify shop connects through our Shopify app. For the other ways to connect, see [Connect your webshop to Printeers](https://printeers.com/support/ordering/connect-your-store.md).

## Install the app

1. Open [Create store](https://dashboard.printeers.com/settings/stores/create) and choose **Shopify**, or go straight to our listing in the [Shopify App Store](https://apps.shopify.com/printeers).
2. Install the app in your shop and follow the steps to link it to your Printeers account.

If you stop halfway, you can pick up where you left off: the Shopify card on the [Create store](https://dashboard.printeers.com/settings/stores/create) page shows a resume button, and opening the Printeers app from your Shopify admin brings you back to the same step.

## After connecting

Your shop appears in your [Stores](https://dashboard.printeers.com/settings/stores) list. Blueprints you connect to it are added to your shop as products, and orders for those products come to us automatically. To change the store's settings later, read [Manage your store settings](https://printeers.com/support/ordering/manage-store-settings.md).

## Troubleshooting

Most shops never run into the situation below.

### A location named "Printeers" already exists

When you connect a shop, Printeers creates a fulfillment service in it and Shopify adds a location named "Printeers" for that service. Shopify requires location names to be unique, and deactivated locations count too.

If your shop already has a location with that name, the connection cannot complete. The store's settings page shows a warning naming the conflicting location, and an issue appears in your [Action center](https://dashboard.printeers.com/action-center).

To fix it, open **Settings → Locations** in your Shopify admin and rename or delete the location the warning names. Deactivated locations have their own section on that page. The connection then completes by itself within a few minutes and the warning disappears.
