General configuration

↑ Back to top
This extension integrates with the WordPress Customizer making it extremely simple to use. Once you enter the Customizer by going to Appearance > Customize, you will notice several new top level sections; Shop, Product Details and Homepage. In addition to this there are new settings in the Header and Homepage sections. The settings should be self explanatory, but let’s work through what each one does. In the following sections.

Header

↑ Back to top
In the Header section there are two new settings both of which are toggles, allowing you to disable certain components: Header Storefront
  • Search Bar. This setting gives you the ability to hide the search bar.
  • Cart Link. This setting gives you the ability to hide the cart link (and the cart drop down by association).

Shop

↑ Back to top
The shop section only appears if you’re currently on the shop page. shop-settings

  • Shop layout. Allows you to choose a full width layout for the shop page and product archives (categories, tags, etc).
  • Shop columns. Allows you to control the number of columns products are arranged into on the shop page and product archives.
  • Shop products per page. Allows you to control the number of products displayed per page on the shop page and product archives.
  • Shop alignment. Specify whether to align product components in archives centrally, to the left or to the right. This governs things like the product image, title, rating, price, add to cart button, sale marker, etc.
  • Display product image. Toggle the display of product images on the shop page and product archives.
  • Display product title. Toggle the display of product titles on the shop page and product archives.

  • Infinite Scroll. Toggle the infinite scroll feature on product archives. This feature will cause more products to be dynamically loaded into the page when the visitor reaches the bottom of the page, instead of having to use the pagination links. You can see a demo of this on our ProShop Child Theme demo.
Note: Infinite scroll feature is no longer part of this extension. We recommend installing Jetpack and using the Infinite Scroll feature included there.
