Does restricting a template to one location hide it from the online store?

In the appCatalogUpdated 2 Nov 2026

Short answer

No. Who can add it controls staff and POS availability, while online publication has separate settings.

Set permitted brands or locations in the template's Organization card and save. Configure the template's online mode separately when you need to change what shoppers can see.
