# Your public store page

Most small shops do not need a website; they need one link they can send to a customer or put in a bio. Your store page is that link. It is generated from the catalogue you already maintain in Khata, so it cannot drift out of date the way a separately-built site does.

## Before you start
- A Khata account with your business name and address filled in.
- At least one product, if you want products to show.

## Setting it up

1. **The page already exists** (Automatic) — Every business gets one. Its address uses your business ID, in the form lskhata.com/partners/<your-id>.
2. **Fill in what customers should see** (You) — Business name, address and the short description are what a visitor reads first. A page with a blank description looks abandoned even when the shop is busy.
3. **Publish the products you want shown** (You) — Your catalogue is not published wholesale. Only products you choose to show appear, so trade-only lines and internal items can stay private.
4. **Verification, if you want to be listed** (Us) — The page works whether or not you are listed on our public partners directory. Being listed there is a separate request, and we verify each one by hand.

## What moves, and in which direction
- **Khata → the page** — Business name, address, description, published categories and published products.
- **Never published** — Cost prices, margins, customer records, khata balances, staff and every report. None of these can appear on a store page.

## How to know it worked
- Open your page in a browser where you are not signed in — that is what a customer sees.
- Check that nothing appears which you would not put in a shop window.

## What this does not do
- It is a storefront, not a shop: there is no cart, no online payment and no order placement.
- You cannot use your own domain for it.
- The page's address is derived from your business ID and cannot be chosen.

## When it does not work
- **The page says no products found.** Nothing has been published yet. Publishing is per product and deliberately opt-in.
- **A product change is not showing.** Store pages are cached for a few minutes so they stay fast. Wait, then reload.

## Common questions

**Can customers order from the page?**

No. It shows what you sell and how to reach you. Orders happen the way they already do — by phone, on WhatsApp, or at the counter.

**Can I stop the page existing?**

Tell us and we will take it down. Deleting your account removes it too.
