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.

Products

1. Go to WooCommerce → Settings
2. Click the Products tab, then click the Display link (W.C. 2.3+)
3. Ensure the Shop Page has Shop selected in the pages drop-down.
   • 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.
4. Ensure "Enable AJAX add to cart buttons on archives " is unchecked if you are using Loft, Cleansale, or Kiosk, or have Obox Social Commerce installed.
5. Under Product Images, enter the recommended image dimensions specific to your theme, listed at the bottom of this article.
6. Optional: Click the Inventory link at the top under the Products heading

Checkout

1. Click the Checkout tab

Product 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.

Following are our demo settings:

• Catalog Images: 300 width and 450 height, hard crop checked
• Single: 580 width and 870 height, hard crop checked
• Product: 120 width and 120 height, hard crop checked

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. We recommend using the same size original image files for all images in your shop to get the cleanest look.

Note that if you set the Shop Sidebar option to None, you will need to increase the Catalog image to 500 and the Single image to at least 620.  We recommend unchecking hard crop for no-sidebar layouts.

Product category images are set under Products → Categories and will display on shop category pages above the product listing if enabled in the Theme Options, and in the Product Category widget. For best results, upload images at least 660 pixels wide for shops with the sidebar, or 1000 pixels wide for shops with no sidebar. These images automatically scale in the widget.
