eCommerce setup

Weaver eCommerce theme give you templates to eCommerce, you must configure your WordPress installation as you want.. front page with the content you want, widgets, menus, etc. You have powerful tools to customize.

the front page

By default, WordPress shows your most recent Posts on the front page of your site. But many WordPress users want to have a static front page with product lists as the front page instead. This “static front page” look is common for those who wish to not have a “blog” look to their site, giving it a more eCommerce  feel.

To display products in front page you can have a static front page with TheCartPress shortcodes. (You can view examples of static pages with shortcodes in http://demo.thecartpress.com and http://extend.thecartpress.com/ )

Once you have created your frontpage you must paste your shortcodes on it to show your product lists within the page. You can put as many shortcodes as you need (also you can put text, images, multimedia, etc).

  • To create shortcodes, TheCartPress has a tool:
    TheCratPress Tools> Shortcodes

Basically, to set up a front page with product lists:

  1. Create shortcodes selecting products
  2. Create page “My front page”, choose template to display it (with or without sidebar)
  3. Paste shortcodes in “My front page” (also you can put text, images, multimedia, etc)
  4.  Configure “My front page” as WordPress frontpage. WP settings>Reading

You can chosse the loop-tcp-grid in your shortcodes. (Also the taxonomy and archive templates call loop-tcp-grid.)

Catalog navigation

Create your catalog navigation with:

  • WordPress native menus (Appearance>menu)
  • TheCartPress Widgets in your sidebars (Appearance>widgets):
    • TCP navigation tree
    • TCP navigation cloud
    • TCP Custom post lists
    • TCP last visited
    • Etc.
