One of the great things about WordPress is the ability to download a vast array of plugins. I have to say one of my favorites has always been WordPress Shopping Cart better known as WPSC by us Designers/Devs.
With the [ latest release ] out now for a few months I have to say I’m impressed by all the changes. No more fussing around with the taxes. Easier to apply now to the state. Images were a bit tricky in the older version and now you simply add one nice size image for 3 setting sized thumbs. Although I think it would be best if they had individual fields to apply images for each product rather than make it a guessing game for the newb. Not so fun trying to figure out where the heck you add more images.
The ability to add products like creating a post is brilliant. Creating Categories and sub Cats is a lot easier now too.
My hats off to the guys and gals at [ GetShopped.org ] they did a terrific job and I can’t wait to see the future updates to come. For a free shopping cart plugin this one does a great job. For added features, sure, you have to pay a little but it beats paying $10k to have it built from scratch now doesn’t it?
