I'm trying to run the local development for my theme in shopify but I'm logged on to a shopify store but when I run "shopify theme dev" I need to log in to my shopify partners account which I don't have since the store is live and running.
All I want is to log in to my store and and work on themes that I have pulled down from github.
I have tried logout and login and reinstall everything

i try to use command shopify theme serve in my project. My account is owner and i also create a staff account with all sensitive permissions. But the terminal always return You can't use Shopify CLI with development stores if you only have Partner staff member access. If you want to use Shopify CLI to work on a development store, then you should be the store owner or create a staff account on the store. . How i can fix this
I've had a plethora of issues with Shopify CLI, so I can help here. This has happened when I have been logged in for a while. I will need more information, but will provide a few catch-all solutions.
1.Are you using a developer account, or are you logged into a store? Try logging out and logging in again as the owner account.
What version are you using?
shopify version
Have you tried logging out and logging back into your store? This usually rectifies it.
shopify logout
shopify login --store=[your .myshopifyURL]
Are you using ruby or homebrew? I have found ruby to be much more stable, and it allows to switch between Shopify CLI versions.
Try switching to a previous shopify version 2.20 or 2.19 if you continue seeing issues. Again, this will need to be done with ruby, as homebrew does not allow any version backtracking.
Edit: make sure your login command looks like this:
shopify login --store=verizon.myshopify.com
You can paste this link from shopify admin, as it is the same link.
So I've been building a Shopify App.
Currently I've gotten to the point where I get the permanent access code.
My question lies with the flow of installation.
Currently the store owner would create an account on my website, then click a button to install our shopify app.
taken to shopify app install prompt -> clicks install -> redirects to my site where I exchange code for access code.
This works fine. But where I am having trouble is what if once my app is on the Shopify Store.
A store installs it from shopify directly (meaning they don't have an existing account with me) I then have no account to save the data to.
How do I go about this?
I looked at other apps on the store. Some apps like Shippo can take you straight to their site first to create an account and then install their app.
What's the solution?
You misunderstand the install from Shopify. When someone installs from Shopify, they come knocking on your door. They introduce themselves as being ***.myshopify.com. Once they approve your App and accept your terms of service, you get to confirm their account, and hence you persist their data in your database exactly the same as someone that installed your App outside Shopify.
So when you say you no account to save the data to, well of course. They are a new install. So make a new record. Instead of an update, you to a create.
I am working on a stencil theme, (first one), just using the default Cornerstone Light theme they supply you with. I am wondering if its possible to login to my local version of the theme at the http://localhost:3000 to alter pages and nav menus. My default login credentials for my bigcommerce store don't work.
You have to login to the store online and it will sync with the local version. It isn't a complete BigCommerce VM, so it lacks the ability to support local merchant login (but does support customer login).
Can we install shopify on localhost for development ?
like: we download opencart and can install on localhost for development.
IS there any way for shopify ?
No, you can't download "anything" from Shopify core like you would do with OpenCart. Shopify is a fully hosted SAAS solution.
Yes. Sign up as a partner. You can then create as many test shops as you wish. A test shop is fully enabled with all the possibilities of Shopify. You can test out front-end code. You can write and install Apps for backend manipulations. And you can run all your Apps on localhost, connecting to your shop. As well, your theme can be localhost too with a file watcher keeping you sync'd to your dev shop.
You can use Shopify Theme Kit to download your app to a local work station and perform live updates from your local station
Is there any way to test your app or plugin before submitting for approval?
Or is there any sandbox for BigCommerce to test the apps prior?
How were the developers of the apps that are presently in the BigCommerce store able to test during the development phase?
You can test your app in a free trial store.
You can do this by:
Setting up a developer account
Logging in to the Apps section
Adding a draft app
Logging in to any Bigcommerce store (preferably a trial store) where you are an admin
Go to Apps then My Drafts
Install your app & test away
See https://developer.bigcommerce.com for more info.
To test your app on local, use ngrok.io to create a https url that tunnels to your localhost
