Welcome email behaviour at store activation
Key Takeaway
Activating a store sends a welcome email to all members of the store's site unless "Send welcome email" is deselected, so turn the setting off before you click "Activate" if you don't want the email sent.
Activating a B2B Commerce store makes it available to customers. Activation also sends a welcome email to the members of the store's site. The email is sent unless you turn it off. You turn it off in the site's Workspaces, which is not where you activate the store. Because the email goes out at activation, an administrator who doesn't want customers to get it must turn it off before activating the store.
What store activation does
When you activate a B2B store, these things happen to the store:
- It becomes available to customers.
- It becomes accessible to external services and online search engines.
- It is published.
