These details will only show on this page. If you want to change the website-wide call to action settings, navigate to Website options > Call to action.

Manually changing the url of a product

In the product edit screen you can see a field called Permalink right below the Title field. The permalink is the url of the product.

You are able the make changes in the section of the permalink that is specific to this product.

Only change the permalink of a post that is not published yet. When you change the permalink of a published product, the original permalink stops working and will lead visitors to a 404 not found page.

When you’re finished making changes, make sure you click the Update button to save the changes. If you want to see the changes before updating the product you can also click the Preview changes button in the Publish section. A new window will open showing the product with your changes.
