The Power of TheCartPress

In this post ,and in next posts, I’d like to show features that make TheCartPress a platform to improve sites made with WordPress.
TheCartPress can be used like a Framework, a Catalogue or eCommerce. Why we say this? Because TheCartPress adds new functionalities to WordPress and improves the existing ones.

For Example I’d like to show the Widget TCP Navigation Tree (previously called TCP Taxonomy Tree). This widget improves the Categories widget of WordPress.

Shos the differences between TCP Navigation Tree and Categories widget

As you can see in the image, TheCartPress adds a lot of new fields to customise the Tree. The most important of them is the Post Type. You can show Trees of post, pages, products, or any other Post type that your WordPress has defined. The WordPress Categories tree only shows a tree of categories of post.

Another useful features are Include or Exclude lists. These lists allow to include or exclude items from the tree. Finally, TCP Navigation Tree allows to sort the taxonomies (categories) that are displaying.

All of this features make of TheCartPress a Powerful tool for your WordPress sites (eCommerces or not).

Best regards
