How Can I Access My Store If I Have Blocked My Own Country?

Introduction

If you've blocked your own country or if you are using a Proxy/VPN connection, Blocky provides a simple way for you to access your store without disabling your settings, as long as you are logged in as the store admin.

How To Access Your Store From a Blocked Country As The Store Admin

Click here and open your Shopify store admin.
Look for the Online Store section in the left navbar.
Hover your mouse over the Online Store section name until an eye icon appears
Click on the eye icon that appeared and your store will open
Blocky will detect you as the store's admin and will not block you, regardless if you are using a Proxy/VPN connection or if you are accessing the store from a blocked country.

Important

This bypass applies only to your current session.
All other visitors will still be blocked based on your configured rules.

Conclusion

The above method allows you to manage and access your store safely—even when your own country is blocked.
