Plugin Features
Below are just some of the notable features of the WP eStore Plugin (you can view a full list of features here):

Sell Anything

I just wanted to thank you for a great plugin that works out of the box. I have tried many different eCommerce plugins over the years. However most of them were not user friendly or always had an issue.
With the eStore it worked as you guys said it would out of the box. I can’t wait to use this on my other sites.
Thanks,
Dave

@Tracy, All our plugins are only compatible with WordPress.org sites. WordPress.com doesn’t allow you to add custom plugins.
#3 by Tracy on April 12, 2013 - 9:09 pm
Is this plug in compatible for wordpress.com or ONLY wordpress.org?
#4 by Ivy on April 7, 2013 - 8:26 pm
@Shawn, If you are using Buy Now buttons you can specify a different PayPal account per button.
There is also the following options if you use the eStore and Affiliate together.

I am sorry if this question has been asked and answered before. Does this plugin allow for multiple vendors. i.e. [buyitem="item1" payto="vendor1"]?
Thanks?
Shawn

@Jarvis, Yes when you use the eStore and the “Extra Shortcodes Plugin Add-on (this is a free add-on)” you can do this. How it works is the customer can enter in their email address and see their purchases.
#7 by Jarvis on March 21, 2013 - 10:42 pm
Does the WP eStore have any easy way for my customers to view their purchase history?
#8 by Ivy on February 19, 2013 - 9:29 pm
@Satsuke, Yes the eStore will support whatever currency that the payment gateway you are using supports.
Example: If you are using PayPal then you can use any currency supported by PayPal
You can see a list of PayPal supported currencies here: https://www.paypal.com/au/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/sell/mc/mc_intro-outside
#9 by satsuke on February 19, 2013 - 2:00 pm
Is the plugin support other currency beside dollar?
#10 by admin on February 1, 2013 - 6:46 pm
@Mike, yes you can do that. We also have a particular feature for protecting that page too (the content of the page will be accessible after clicking on the encrypted link):

#11 by Mike on February 1, 2013 - 1:08 pm
Instead of sending customers to a download link to download a file, is it possible to give them an encrypted link that sends them to a website page containing a form? For example, I want customers to be able to access the form, but not be able to return to the same page without making another purchase.
#12 by Ivy on January 30, 2013 - 8:00 pm
@Monica, Yes you would need to use the WP eStore and WP eMember for this. The following documentation will explain how this works.

#13 by Monica on January 30, 2013 - 2:44 pm
HI! Looks great and a quick question: can I drip content out with this? Sort of a fixed term membership where they purchase and get a segment sent to them every week for 6 weeks. Thanks!
#14 by Ivy on January 28, 2013 - 8:00 pm
@Jamie, Yes the WP eStore has a save and retrieve cart option. This gives you the ability to allow your customers to save their shopping cart content so that it can be retrieved at a later time.
#15 by Jamie on January 27, 2013 - 5:57 pm
Does the eStore have an option where my customers can save their cart and retrieve it at a later time?
#16 by James Kenny on January 5, 2013 - 2:14 pm
Hi WP eStore team,
I’ve been using your plugin for the last few months and I thought I’d drop you a note. It’s one of the best pieces of software I’ve ever bought. Crammed with features and incredibly easy to configure and use. You’ve made taking our business on-line incredibly easy, and most importantly, successful.
Many thanks and best regards.
James.

@Paul, We do have a few customers using our plugins with this theme. There are no known issues with this theme at this time.
#18 by Paul on December 30, 2012 - 10:48 am
This looks like a solution for my needs – selling workshop pack downloads on my site. I use the catalyst theme. Are you aware if any compatibility issues with it at all? http://digitalmarketingworkshop.co.uk thanks.
#19 by Manuel on December 15, 2012 - 12:38 pm
I love this plugin! I using that on different site and it’s just awesome in combination with the affiliate plugin. Easy setup and configuration. Unlimited options.
#20 by Ivy on December 12, 2012 - 7:47 pm
@Benny, Yes there is inventory control for a product. You can specify the quantity you have for a product once that quantity is sold out the buy button will change to a sold out image. When you add more quantity for the item (restock) the sold out image will go back to the buy button.
#21 by benny swiss on December 12, 2012 - 5:21 pm
does it has ”in stock” function ? i mean to where i can place the number of availability to each item, once sold out , client can not add to shopping cart. something like this.
#22 by admin on December 8, 2012 - 5:53 pm

#24 by Ivy on December 4, 2012 - 7:16 pm
@Marie, Yes, eStore has a feature that allows you to use text link instead of a button to put a purchase link on your landing page for your product.
#25 by Marie on December 4, 2012 - 2:42 pm

#30 by Rebecca Livermore on October 20, 2012 - 6:04 pm
Does this plugin support upsells? I offer blog writing services. I’d like to offer blog writing, but then at checkout have the person have the option to add on other things such as me uploading the blog posts to their site, social media, etc. I’m wondering how to best do that with your plugin. Thanks!
#31 by Ivy on September 26, 2012 - 9:21 pm
@ Julianne, I am glad the plugin is working out for you and thank you for your kind words.
#32 by Julianne on September 26, 2012 - 6:41 am
Oh my goodness! I have gone ahead and purchased your product with a bit of trepidation to be honest, watched the tutorials, uploaded something to my shop, tested it and it is working! The last shopping cart product I installed onto my shop with my headway themes crashed the whole site, luckily I had a backup and was able to get everything back. So I was not that confident installing your eStore because of that. However, I dutifully backed up first and followed your instructions and it has worked beautifully. You have no idea how grateful I am. It was so easy. I have even got it integrated with my Aweber list especially for my customers. I am so happy!! Thanks so much, words can not describe how grateful I am. And if anyone is reading this, believe me I am not making this testimonial up, go to my site http://artgrowlove.com and see how “out there” it is and you will understand why I was so worried about mucking it up now that I have it looking “just so”. Thanks again, wonderful wp eStore people.
