PLEASE NOTE:
- When using continuous copy - due to Shopify's webhooks, Metafields will not automatically update unless another aspect of your product has also changed. Rewind Staging is not notified of a change to metafields alone.
- We do NOT copy Product Inventory.
- We cannot guarantee the copy will maintain your image/video carousel order.
*COLLECTIONS: This includes all the Products in those Custom Collections. For Smart Collections, associated Products will only be copied over with the Collection if they have been MANUALLY sorted.

Why can't we copy these things?
Some items are not able to be copied due to technical limitations.
Settings, Menus, Shipping Zones:
Shopify does not currently allow API access to a number of items nested under the "Settings" umbrella. This includes navigation menus and shipping zones.
This also naturally includes everything else under settings, like your passwords, credit card information, address, staff or collaborator account info.
Shopify's settings contain secure information, and because of this - they do not allow us access to view or copy any of the data contained within.
Third Party Apps:
Third party apps are just that - third party. This means that they don't belong to Shopify or to the merchant, and we do not have permission to use the API to access and copy their data.
This includes copying the installation of apps from one store to another, and the data they contain for your account.
What about data pushed FROM an app?
Data that can be pushed from an app like pages made in a page maker, code that was manually placed in your <head> in the theme.liquid or products that were pushed from a dropshipping app CAN be copied as those pieces of information now exist INSIDE Shopify and can be viewed, and accessed.
When in doubt about what can or cannot be copied from an app ask yourself "Where is it stored?" Do you have to access it by going to your Admin > Apps section? Or can you find it in your Online Store > Pages, Blog, Products etc. sections? If it’s the latter, we’ve got it covered.
