The WooCommerce plugin allows you to setup a fully featured web shop or digital distribution solution to sell your handmade goods, affiliate products, music, multi-media content or services. Visit Install WooCommerce if you have not installed the plugin. It is required for eCommerce functionality in your theme to work.

   • If you do not have this in your dropdown because you skipped setup, you will need to create a shop page or load our demo content, then return to this step.

Checkout

Product Images & Image Sizes

Product image quality and size are determined by your WooCommerce  settings, found under WooCommerce → Settings . Click on the  Products tab , then click the Display link and scroll down to the Product Image Sizes section. Enter the following into the Product Images fields:

• Catalog Images: 220 width, 999 height, hard-crop unchecked
• Single: 980 width, 999 height, hard-crop unchecked
• Product: this option determines the width of thumbnails if the Product Gallery is enabled in Theme Options
  • 3 columns: 300 width – the height and crop is your choice.
  • 4 columns: 220 width –  the height and crop is your choice.

The height is really up to you depending on the kind of product images you are using, as well as the crop. Hard crop will crop the bottom off your image at the height you set. Unchecking hard crop will scale the image to the width, regardless of the height. For best results, use the same dimensions for all product images originally, so they all scale uniformly for the cleanest look.
