Getting Started

Access Your Shop

After your shop is ready, you'll get three addresses (URLs): the server address, the management address, and a main address.

The server address refers to the server of your shop, you only need it in some special cases.

The management address is the address that you can use to access the management panel, where you can maintain your shop.

The main address is the entrance of your customers. It's not recommended for most shops but you may have multiple main addresses at the same time. In most cases, you want to replace the default main address later with your own address.


Login / Logout from / to Management Panel

The built-in administrator account password will be sent to your email. You can login with your email address and password. You can create other administrator accounts via Information & System / Administrator after that.

It's always required that you (and all other administrators) check the computer and network environment before login. Login using an insecure computer / network can cause security issues.

If you save your password, your don't need to login again within about 30 days, as long as you use the same browser and don't change your IP address. If your IP address changes, you have to login again.

You can logout anytime via your account menu on the top right of the screen. You can also change your password here.

Please manage your password carefully. Due to security reason, it's not allowed to reset your password via email. If you shop has multiple administrators, you may reset your password via other administrators with required permission. Otherwise, you have to login to esoul.online and reset your password via customer service.


Caches

It's notable that some information are cached as long as your browser is open. You may want to close the browser to clear all the information. Mercury often set the cache-control header to guide your browser to manage the cache. However, depending on the settings of your browser, some caches may still exist even after you close your browser. You need to read the manual of your browser and clear the cache. This may be required by your local law / customers.

Link Your Domain

You replace your main address by link your domain to our system. In order to do this, you should contact your administrator to create a CNAME record or an A record to the built in main address or it's IP. It's notable that the main address must be a domain name (e.g. yourshop.com), you can't serve your shop under a directory (e.g. yourshop.com/shop). After that, you can login to your management panel and go to Information & System / Domain and add a new domain.
