@JP_Prieto Thanks for the reply! Looking at the docs, I thought Hydrogen could be connected to the Headless channel, but on second glance, I see it’s Hydrogen React.
Your reply is correct, but it didn’t meet all the requirements to solve my problem. I’m documenting the solution I found and marking it correct in case it helps someone else.
My solution (technically a workaround) is to set a password on the live store before connecting to it. I’m still having issues logging in as a customer, but it might be because the code for the quickstart store isn’t set up to do this (perhaps because Legacy accounts is on).
It’s not ideal. I’d much rather have a full-fledged developer store to connect to while developing. That’s what they are for. I don’t understand why Shopify is deficient in this area.
But I will use this workaround for now. Hopefully it helps others who find the Mock Shop inadequate but can’t allow public access to the store they are developing and have access to a paid plan.
