As a person who already know WP, could you be so kind and answer this quick question: Can I still use this WP Backup Plugin for my WP org based website backup if the site itself has server provider outside the WP com? Thanks a lot for your time given to my question - much appreciated.

[@dumbcat]

when the customer buys something, does this take the customer to a different website (navigate them away from your WordPress site) ? hmm. i think you answered that question at 25:04. appears the customer will remain on the WordPress site, which is great. i really hate it when i'm on a site and click to buy something and i am taken to a different website

[@StewartGauld]

Hey, You are correct. The customer will remain on your website.

[@robg-photography]

Great tutorial. One thing confusing me is that you are installing onto an already existing site, but you chose a theme, surely your site would have already had a theme? What do I do if I already have a theme on my site? Tia.

[@StewartGauld]

Hey Robert, Yes, I'm choosing the theme I already use. You will already have a theme that you site uses. Either a paid or free default theme.

[@chelse.rose.x]

@@StewartGauld Going through the set up and it did not give me the option to select a theme. Is that because wordpress already has a default theme, Twenty Twenty Three, active? I would like to look through the Woocommerce themes or possibly use the DIVI one.

Hi, Im looking to build a wholesale website, but i dont want normal customers seeing the prices so wouod require a login before viewing prices ect... would woo commerce be the best to go for or big commerce? Its only on a small scale so which would you recommend as a wholesaler?

[@StewartGauld]

Hey, Yes Woocommerce will work well for that.

[@goldenant9450]

when i comes to user account creation, do your settings apply when someone pays via paypal? The paypal checkout is different, in its own popup modal, rather than the generic, on the page woocommerce checkout.

Hello! I was wondering if there is a way to take the “out of stock” banner that appears on the out of stock items in the storefront. I only have products stocked once a month and don’t want hide all the products but I also don’t want a huge banner that says “out of stock” as soon as they visit my store.

Which are the minimum specs on hosting that you need to have to sustain a small ecommerce business?

[@StewartGauld]

All hosting WordPress plans should allow you to do this.

[@kenhorvat6170]

I have had a website for a few years and now want to add a store to it - is there a video for this?

[@StewartGauld]

Yes you sure can. You can use Woocommerce or another integration.

HI , when i added the woocommerce plugin to add products on my website , i added tree links for any single product to multiple country by using other plugin , By knowing that afer saving this work and publishing it the links deosn’t appear on my website .

[@victorialoveland-coen6804]

Great tutorial But I'm stuck at the Advanced page. The fields came up blank and I don't know how to restore default. I've added the pages like you have here and it's taking customers to the shop page but there doesn't seem to be a "check out" page. How do I set that up. It seems like this is an essential missing element. It doesn't matter how all the other pages and fields are set up if it's not taking folks to a page where they can put in their payment to order. And I installed the WooCommerce Payments app. Help!

Hey Victoria, I will need to look into this!

I feel guilty asking this because your presentation is SO thorough. However... Nowhere could I find (twice through) a reference for a digital download product. Been toying with the idea of leaving Kindle and putting my books on a WooCommerce page integral to my site. Don't have a 'store' for physical products, just 3 books formatted for Kindle. What say you? Thanks for all your efforts here.

[@StewartGauld]

Hey mate, Yes you can sell digital products through Woocommerse too. This is the best option as you take home more margins.

[@richardlees5303]

@@StewartGauld Thanks Stewart. I guess the only advantage to Kindle would be exposure to a larger audience.

@@psomlo let me know how you go? Alternatively, you can give Shopify a go if your new to building an online store

[@psomlo]

@@StewartGauld I've already tried Shopify, didn't find it very straightforward and not willing to pay $39/month. I haven't seen a CMS that I thought was easy to use. I manage a website that uses Drupal and it's an absolute nightmare - I've given up on updating and I'm two revs behind. I'm the point on Woocommerce where I'm adding/editing my products, but it's not fast. And there are 25 menu choices across the left sidebar, with no guidance from woocommerce on how to get started. There's so much functionality and options built in, that it makes it unwieldy and confusing.
