One of the advantages of open source software is what you can do. This includes choosing any topic compatible with Woocommerce! You can learn how to use the template structure and cover the template through the theme to customize all the Woocommerce templates according to your preference.
If you take this road, it is best to develop in each version of WooCommerce to check the template file file The habit to ensure that the customization is not outdated.

How does the transportation of woocommerce operate?
Transportation will soon become a quite complicated thing. The more requirements for your configuration, the more complicated your transport settings. As simple as possible.
3. How to start transportation In all cases, you need to set up setting Transportation area. The transportation area is a geographical area with the same transportation cost or calculation.
For example, if the unit weight cost of the entire Arizona is the same, but it is not outside of this range, then Arizona should have its own transportation area. You can also create a transportation area called \”local\” for your motherland and create a \”other regions in the world\” for any content other than that.
4. Setting method of each WoOocommerce transport area
After setting the transportation area, you can add transportation methods to each area. Some are manually configured: using the Woocommerce core setting a unified rate and free delivery, or buying Table Rate Shipping to obtain a more complex configuration.
Some carrier (such as UPS or Canadian Post) enables you to connect the carrier and designated transportation area to automatically generate the company’s rate. Calculate the freight for you according to the products in the order.
Rolling down the screen to the transportation method. Use the button to disable the existing transportation method. Or choose to add transportation methods to use other ways.
Browse all our transportation companies.
5. Add dimensions and weights to achieve variable pricingUnless the uniform rate is used, you need to add product size and weight to your delivery products. This is completed when editing the product, rolling down to the product data and using the transport tab:
Add size when editing the product, and use the transportation in the product data part.
Generally, when the transportation cost is calculated or unable to calculate, this is because the product size does not enter the product size to calculate the transportation cost. More information: Add size and weight.
How to choose the correct payment gateway?Woocommerce has a lot of available payment gateways. This is both good and overwhelming!
Only on woocommerce.com, there are about 100 different payment gateway expansion; in other markets, even more. How do you choose the best?
Finding part of the correct gateway is your own research. We built software to connect Woocommerce to these payment systems, but keep cautious when providing detailed information (for example, about costs), the reason is simple, because we do not enter in some aspects. We provide a guide, which payment method is suitable for me? Below, we will guide you to understand the main content that helps to narrow. 6. Remember the country and currency
On woocommerce.com, WooCommerce Extensions has a national filter, which allows you to chooseYour country/region and check whether your country and currency can be available for payment.
Select your country from the drop -down list.
The first step is to exclude the gateway that is not applicable to your area.
7. Does your store need regular payment function?
Functional requirements may limit the payment method and help you reduce the search range.
For example, the payment function we need most is subscription (for example, monthly snack box or online magazine To. Not all payment gateways are compatible with the final payment system, because the money to collect customers by plan will bring technical and security challenges. For this reason, our popular WOOCOMMERCE subscriber developer Prospress has a subscription payment method and gateway guide, which lists all compatible payment options available on WooCommerce.com. Considering the specific function you need, the payment method may greatly reduce your search range.
8. Careful comparison to ensure that your gateway is correct

Woocommerce destroys my website. What should I do next?
It is difficult to give exact numbers, but 25% of the issues reported by the customer report are conflicts between WooCommerce and other code running on the website.
If someone is looking for help to solve damaged sites, we will start from the following two steps.
About 25% of our customers reported to all issues reported to Woocommerce. There was a conflict between WooCommerce and other code running on the website.
9. Failure site failure exclusion: System status report
First of all We check the system status report. This report is located in:
WOOCOMMERCE \u0026 GT; Status
. The state is descriptive. Usually, it is best to avoid most of the red on the page. In understanding the system status report, we explain all the elements of the report in detail, but we find that there are two fields that will cause problems:
The server environment
: This is where your website is located. place. You can almost compare it with a closed community. All residents (sites) in the community follow a set of rules. If it violates, there may be trouble. For Woocommerce, your custody company provides the server environment, and some of their preferences may contradict the requirements of Woocommerce. If you see red in this part, it is best to contact your custody company.
Template : Many themes copy the WooCommerce template file and change them to match the theme. When these templates conflict with the WOOCOMMERCE function, or the theme developers forget to update the template to use the latest version of the Woocommerce, this is very good but problematic. To understand whether your theme causes conflicts, switch to Storefront (always use the latest version of the WOOCOMMERCE test) or 27. If you change to any theme to solve the problem, then your theme. At this time, it is best to contact your theme developer.
10. Failure station failure exclusion: conflict check [123 ]
Second, we perform conflict inspections. If everything in the system state looks normal, we need to confirm that there is no other plug -in caused a conflict with Woocommerce. Ideally, first install the Health Check plug -in and run some tests. If no content is displayed, please disable all plugins and enable them one by one. After each reorganization, the test problem still exists. We have a great failure to eliminate self -service guidelines to help you.
When testing, common sense usually helps find problems faster. For example, if there is a problem with the product editing screen, then it is best to pay attention to all plug -in added to the screen, such as the additional component of the product.
Because we want to share more
We are talking about 10, but we only need to share more gems. The following is five additional prompts based on WooCommerce common problems:
Electronics Email
: If you encounter problems when sending emails, your order may stay in \”waiting to be processed\” due to IPN or actual email problems. We have a great Woocommerce Email Frequently Asking Question Questioning Tutorial, you can view it.
Order status
: If the payment has been handled, we often receive questions about why the order is being handled. The simple explanation is that order processing indicates that the goods still need to be shipped; if your payment is not completed, the order status should be \”to be paid\”. More information: Order status and its relationship with the payment gateway.
PayPal’s instant payment notification (IPN)
is the key element of this payment gateway because it will update your WoOOCOMMERCE order. However, it sometimes brings challenges, and we have tried to list as many challenges as possible so that you can immediately start failure.
Backup and Security
: We cannot start emphasizing the importance of maintaining the safety and backup of the website. Install the SSL certificate on your website to encrypt the sensitive data and details of customers. Your custody company can help settings, but there is a guide on SSL and HTTPS here to help you get started.
Software : Import security steps are using the latest software, so the new version of WordPress and its plug -in should be installed at the time of release. Update may be challenging, so we also have a tutorial on how to update the WOOCOMMERCEEssenceA key aspect is to have a good backup system.Any advanced Jetpack program can provide a solid security net when the situation deteriorates. ——————
