Introduction
To install the plugin you can either use the Automatic WordPress plugin installer or do a Manual installation.
Automatic
- In WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New
- In the search term, type in ‘Jigoshop’ and click Search Plugins
- Click Install Now on Jigoshop – WordPress eCommerce
- Done!
Manual
- Download the plugin file to your computer
- Unzip the file
- Using an FTP program, or your hosting control panel, upload the unzipped plugin folder to your WordPress installation’s wp-content/plugins/ directory.
- Activate the plugin from WordPress admin.
Notes
Upon activation, Jigoshop will install several things that it requires to function correctly:
- Several new pages:
- My Account: Edit my address, View Order
- Cart
- Checkout: Pay, Thank you
- Track your order
- Custom post types for orders and products
- Custom taxonomies for orders and products
- Several new widgets
- Several new shortcodes
Do not delete the installed pages unless you know what you are doing – the plugin needs these to show parts such as the cart and the checkout process.
