Description
Built-in e-commerce features
We’ve explained e-commerce themes’ standard features in detail in a blog post. The features are balanced as we didn’t stuff every e-commerce features out there. Including only those that are must-haves for a well functional e-commerce store. Here’s a short summary..
One Click Auto Install
this theme features our awesome single click install feature. You won’t have to set
each and everything step by step (like you do with competetor theme). Simply
Activate the theme and this theme auto populates sample products, categories and
does the basic settings (you can remove them with single click). It’s much easier
now to understand how the theme works and all you need to do is, edit the sample
products and place your own. You do not need technical knowledge.

Usability
One of the reason it took us long time to complete the backend of the e-commerce themes is, usability. We studied best practices of building e-commerce websites, studied lots of successful online stores and brainstormed some of the key pages and functionality that may impact the sales process that your customer goes through. We reduced the steps of the process, restructured the purchase experience, debated on the small elements such as button / text / colors / notifications etc., finally concluding our base e-commerce theme to be one of the very easy to use and best performing purchase experience so far.

Different modes of Shopping Cart
You may sell anything – tangible or intangible using our themes. You have an option to create your website in any mode.
o
Shopping Cart
Like the standard shopping cart that you see on other e-commerce websites. You may choose to have “add to cart” mode and let the users add all the items they want and then lead them to checkout or, you can have “buy now” mode and take them straight to checkout when they select a product.
o
Digital Shop
If you are selling digital product of any kind, this is a perfect option for you. Are you selling icons, digital art, PDF, e-books, scripts or any other kind of digital goodies? Select this option and when a user makes a purchase, they will have an account generated at your site and they can download their purchase any time. You don’t have to worry about third party digital delivery sites.
o
Catalog mode
Maybe you only want to showcase your items and don’t want to sell it online? Simply choose this mode and you will have “send inquiry” button instead of buy now / add to cart. Visitors thus, can send an inquiry on the products they like.

Manage Products
Add / Edit / Delete products are as easy as you create a wordpress blog post. You have a custom panel where-in you can edit the product description, different parameters, upload product images etc. real easy.
