General settings

The address enquiry notifications go to, and how the homepage describes itself to a search engine.

General is the first screen under Modules in Storefront Settings. It holds three groups that have little to do with each other: where enquiries are announced, how the front page describes itself to a search engine, and what an inline stock correction fills in for you.

The General screen of Storefront Settings, with a Notifications group holding the RFQ notification email, a Homepage SEO group holding a Meta title and Meta description with character counters, and a Quick stock adjust group below them.
Three unrelated groups on one screen.

Notifications

The Notifications group on Settings > Storefront > General
FieldWhat it does
RFQ notification emailWhere enquiry submissions are sent. Leave it empty and they go to your organisation's address instead.

Worth filling in before the first enquiry arrives rather than after. An organisation address is usually a general one that nobody watches hour by hour, and a missed enquiry is a missed order.

Homepage SEO

The Homepage SEO group on Settings > Storefront > General
FieldWhat it does
Meta titleThe headline a search result shows for your front page. A counter beside the field keeps you inside the limit.
Meta descriptionThe sentence or two underneath it.

This is the homepage and nothing else. Every product and every content page carries its own search engine listing, set on the record itself.

Quick stock adjust

The third group holds the switch and the two defaults behind the inline on-hand editor on a variant page. Three fields, and enough behind them to be worth their own guide, which is the next article in this section.

Saving

Save and Discard appear at the foot of the screen as soon as you change anything, and not before. Leaving the screen with something unsaved loses it.
