Short description of issue

I have to keep putting in my store password nonstop. And when I do, nothing happens

Link to Shopify Store

N/A

Reproduction steps

I am not sure why, but for the past two days my localhost theme store (127.0.0.1:9292) requires a store password. If I enter in my store’s password, nothing happens and the request-password page stays present

Additional info

I am using Vite and Tailwind. The only current fix for this is to clear my page’s cookies and restart my dev server. Its kind of annoying lol.

Hi @rylanharper, Do you get prompted for the store password through the CLI at all, or only in the browser at 127.0.0.1:9292? I’m curious whether having a shopify.theme.toml with this kind of config would help, since store-password lets the CLI pass the storefront password for you instead of you typing it in each time:

[environments.default]
theme = "1234565"
store = "myshopname"
store-password = "mysecretpassword"

Hey @Paige-Shopify,

This only happens on 127.0.0.1:9292, even after I added my password via the Shopify CLI in the terminal. My guess is that this may be a slight bug on the Shopify-end of things. I’ll try add those values to my already existing toml file.

Thanks for giving that a try.

To help me investigate, could you share two things when the issue occurs:

  • your CLI version from shopify version
  • the verbose output from running shopify theme dev --verbose (feel free to redact anything sensitive)

Thank you!
