    Do I have to make a page FOR EVERY ITEM? That seems odd to me

    Plugin Author moshthepitt

    (@moshthepitt)

    Please have a look at these tutorials: https://dukapress.org/docs/tutorials/

    Also, I am not sure whether your site currently uses DukaPress…

    I am using dukapress, I need to get it initially set up, and then if that works I may buy the enhanced edition

    Okay, so I can’t get it to show up on the left hand menu as a page at all, but YES I am using dukapress
    https://www.stringingalong.com/products/butterfly-swirl-necklace/

    I still can’t get the images to show up with lightbox, and as I said, it won’t show up on the left hand links at all.

    My original questions still stand:

    I would like my products to show up on a grid, instead of how they show up now

    The pictures as they are now are of too big a file size, I can fix that and make smaller images myself. Once that is done, how do I put multiple images on a page with a grid?
    like this:
    https://madoido.com/styles1/

    And can I upload more then one picture of each item?
    like this, but with two or three images for EACH ITEM…

    Also, on the checkout page, I don’t want people filling out their info AT ALL on my site, I want it to go straight to paypal, and ONLY allow shipping to the U.S and Canada. Can I do this? I do not want anyone putting their address info into my site, that should be private and between paypal and the customer.
    I’m beginning to worry this was a mistake with jumping on buying this plugin so fast.

    Oh and when I try to buy a product, I get this error:

    We cannot process this transaction because there is a problem with the PayPal email address supplied by the seller. Please contact the seller to resolve the problem. If this payment is for an eBay listing, you can contact the seller via the “Ask Seller a Question” link on the listing page. When you have the correct email address, payment can be made at https://www.paypal.com.

    Do I need to enter my paypal e-mail address? With my other pages on my site , I never did, I clicked on “add to cart” and it took me to a paypal screen and I checked out from there. Click on any of the product pages on the left to see what I mean:
    Page set up using Dukapress
    https://www.stringingalong.com/products/butterfly-swirl-necklace/

    Page set up using paypal buttons

    [dpsc_grid_display] – Use this shortcode to display products in a Grid layout. This particular shortcode has these variables that you need to define:
    category – should contain products category id – you can have more than one id separated by commas. How do you find a category id?
    total – defines the number of products that should be displayed.
    column – is the number of columns in which you want to display products
    per_page – this is the number of products to display per page
    order – defines how the products will be ordered. Possible values are ASC, DESC or rand. You can only use one at time.
    For example:
    [dpsc_grid_display category=”1” total=”12″ column=”3″ per_page=”4″ type=”duka” order=”DESC”]
    This will display products from category ID 1, in three columns accross the page. It will display a total of 12 products, with 4 products on every page. The products will be ordered in a descending way. Kindly note that you have to change category=”1” to bear the category id of your products.
    The type=duka tells DukaPress to display products from the new (as of DukaPress 1.2.0) products post type. Remove it if you are not using custom post types (why would you not, though?).
    You have to enter this shortcode defined in this way as [dpsc_grid_display] on its own will NOT work.

    And can I upload more then one picture of each item?
    like this, but with two or three images for EACH ITEM…

    Yes you can indeed have multiple pictures per product. Here is how: https://help.ourduka.com/creating-a-product/

    If they do not input their information on your site, how will you get their delivery details? They do not input any financial information.

    In any case, this is how the checkout page currently works – and it is so on all our demos for people to see what it will look like. If you want, you can modify the page to be like you want it, or to redirect to PayPal but as things stand you have to modify DukaPress to achieve this.

    We’re working on a “Buy Now” button that redirects to PayPal, though. But I am not sure when it will be ready.

    Oh and when I try to buy a product, I get this error:

    We cannot process this transaction because there is a problem with the PayPal email address supplied by the seller. Please contact the seller to resolve the problem. If this payment is for an eBay listing, you can contact the seller via the “Ask Seller a Question” link on the listing page. When you have the correct email address, payment can be made at https://www.paypal.com.

    Most probably, you input your PayPal ID incorrectly in DukaPress settings.

    If you can make me an admin on your site, I would love to try and help you set up correctly and look closer into why things may not be working. My email is duka[at]dukapress.org

    Thank you!

    Try using wp-ecommerce plugin… It can arrange your site in the grid style you want, the pictures are going to be smaller and sharp, and you can upload more than one photo per product.
    In addition, you can also add product rating stars to your products.
    But note that, the free version of this plugin will not offer you grid style arrangement or multiple pictures per product.
    But it works pretty good… No problems attached!

    I tried wp-ecommerce. My images showed up way too big or fuzzy, and would only open in the same window, thus making users have to hit the back button. Imagine you are a 50 year old woman shopping for stuff online, maybe you wouldn’t know to hit the back button…I wanted my site user friendly.
