How to Configure Units in your Online Store

Info: This article applies to Website Builder purchases made after 14th January 2025. For further assistance, please contact our support team.

In this article, you will learn how to set the units of measurement for your online store, which will be displayed throughout the entire website. You can choose between metric units (grams, litres, meters, etc.) or imperial units (inches, pounds, gallons, etc.). 

Setting the correct units is especially important for calculating shipping prices based on product weight and for displaying unit prices for products. 

Getting Started

To get started, you first need to log into the web builder through your Online Control Panel. Unsure how to do so? Follow our guide HERE

Step One

In the administration of your project, click Store Settings < General Settings

Step Two

In the Product weight and size units section, click Edit and choose either metric or imperial units. 

Once the desired changes have been made, you can (re)publish the site.
