Bring Shoppers Back With Rewards
The buyer points plugin gives your customers an incentive to come back and buy more. Shoppers can view the points they have earned at any time on their account pages.
The buyer points plugin will accumulate points for shoppers regardless of if they are registered! This means that your store doesn’t need to put up any barriers to people completing their purchases, like registration. Points are accumulated for each purchase and attached to the buyers email address. As soon as they register, earned points appear in the customers account record.
WPEC Sizes and Colors
WP-eCommerce is one of our favorite commerce platforms. It offers a flexible infrastructure that let’s you manage product variations that may have attributes more complicated than just size and color. If most of the time all you need for your store is product size and color the WPEC variation structure, and the user interface needed to manage it, can become very complicated to oversee. The large number of product variations can also slow down your store, and may even require a more expensive server than would otherwise be necessary.
Our sizes and Colors add-in addresses these specific needs and greatly improves the product management interface used to update inventory and adjust prices. If you use Pye Brook Company to build your ecommerce presence you will get the benefit this add-in as part of your implementation. If your are building an ecommerce site, for yourself for someone else, contact us to discuss licensing the add-in.
SEO and WP-eCommerce Performance Tuning
We have been doing some tuning work on the 80,000+ product Sparkle Gear WP e-Commerce store and wanted to share one experience with the WordPress SEO Plugin by Yoast.
Unless you are a SEO expert, Yoast’s WordPress Plugin is a a tool that will save you alot of work, and keep much the SEO process understandable and accessible to mere mortals. It’s a great addition for any WordPress site, and especially useful for WPEC that create lots of posts (products are posts) and have lost of taxonomies (variations and categories are taxonomies). IMHO. the dynamic sitemap generation feature of the WorpPress SEO plugin alone makes it a must have.
However, there are some details about how WPEC is implemented that need to be addressed when you install the SEO plugin.First item, WPEC stores products as posts. WPEC stores
variations of products as child posts of product posts. These child posts are used to hold information about an individual product variation. Details like the variation image, price, stock. etc. The important detail to note is that these child posts are not directly accessible to the outside world. In WP speak, the permalink for these posts will give you a 404!
