The Shopping Cart
WP e-Commerce
If you are offering products, services, or digital delivery items through your web store one of the things you will use, and want to know about, most is the Shopping Cart. Most sellers will be using WP e-Commerce. This is the main shopping cart we provide and the one that is covered here. We can install other shopping carts is a seller prefers or requires a different one.
WP e-Commerce is a highly rated shopping cart plug-in for WordPress created by Instinct, a firm located in New Zealand. They provide reasonably good documentation for their product. You don’t need to worry about any of the installation sections as the plug-in is fully installed on your MSMOsites website or web store and ready to go. The menu to the lower right, under Documentation Index and, in particular, the sub-section under Settings including General, Presentation, Admin, Shipping, Payments, and Checkout, will likely be of most interest to you.
