jasonabc Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 a virtual store is the same as a physical bricks-and-mortar one. Filling up with products is always the *last* thing on the "to-do" list ;-) Check the Tips and Tricks section, and the Knowledge Base for customisation techniques.

jasonabc Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 after you have your store installed - always, always, always, install any additional features and functionality (contributions) before you do anything else. It's much easier and quicker to install contributions on a stock install than a customised store. Once you have your store fully functioning features-wise then it's time to concentrate on look and feel. Take each piece of the store at a time. Use this forum and the resources I listed above - they are very helpful. There are also some decent books out there on the subject (although I've hever used them so can't recommend any ;-) ) Jason My Contributions: Paypal Payflow PRO | Rollover Category Images | Authorize.net Invoice Number Fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
