# Second Step: Source Setting

1. **Product Title and Descriptions Preference**

You can choose to use the default product titles and descriptions from your store or retrieve them from the **SEO** section in Shopify.

* **Default Title**: Uses product information as it appears in your store.
* **Use from SEO**: Retrieves titles and descriptions from Shopify’s **Edit website SEO** section.

If you choose **Use from SEO**, your titles and descriptions will be taken from the **Edit website SEO** section in Shopify. This function is useful if you want to optimize your titles and descriptions, and you want them to be different from the ones in-store.

To prevent unpublished products from syncing, turn off **Import unpublished products**. This ensures only available products are included in your feed.
