The shops are no longer “the future”, they are the present. Today we will show you how to install and configure your online store with WooCommerce and Divi, on the best themes for WooCommerce<\/a>.<\/p>\n This plugin is a free and open-source tool that merges e-commerce with your blog, and you can continue creating entries while you sell products from the same page. It has many advantages such as:<\/p>\n To install this plugin, go to WordPress plugins, click Add new and look for “WooCommerce”. There, click on Install and wait for the process to finish.<\/p>\n First let’s know the plugin in detail so that your store has all the data that the client (and you) need.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Here you will keep track of the orders placed. You can create them and add new orders by filling in the following fields:<\/p>\n -General data: <\/b>date of order, status of the same (pending payment, waiting, completed, processing …), customer search by name.<\/p>\n -Billing data:<\/b> you can edit the personal data of the client, as well as the payment method and the identification of the transaction.<\/p>\n -Details of delivery: <\/b>here you can fill in the details of the client where your order will arrive. You can also include notes about it.<\/p>\n -Actions of the order: <\/b>you can create new actions in this section: send the invoice by email, resend the new order notice, regenerate the download permissions.<\/p>\n Then, just below the options that we have described, the data of the articles that are included in the customer’s order will appear. You can also include new products and even apply coupons that you have previously created.<\/p>\n Finally, you can add “Custom Fields” and “Downloadable Product Permissions” in the order.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n You have seen on the web that they give away coupons for free items or discounts, especially in promotions such as Black Friday, Cyber Monday, etc. Adding the coupon is super easy by completing the following information:<\/p>\n <\/a>This part will be very useful for your marketing strategy. Here you can view the statistics of the sales that you make with your online store and generate reports of them.<\/p>\n You have 3 categories to study: Orders, Clients and Inventory.<\/p>\n Each of these tabs, in turn, gives you more accurate data.<\/p>\n You can extract data from the last 7 days, from the last and current month, and even set custom date ranges.<\/p>\n You also have the option of studying the graph that will provide us with the data of the “Customers” section. Right there, you can see the list of “List of customers” that they have bought in your online store.<\/p>\n Finally, in the “Inventory” section, you can keep track of your products in stock.<\/p>\n In this section, you can modify the data you placed when you installed the plugin and initially configured it.<\/p>\n You have the following tabs:<\/p>\n General: <\/b>In this first section you can modify the address data of the store, general sales options, activate taxes and their calculations and modify the currency you are going to use. Once you modify the data you need, just click on the “Save changes” button.<\/p>\n Products: <\/b>This tab has different categories that you can fill in.<\/p>\n General: <\/b>you can modify the units of weight and dimensions, activate customer ratings and activate the possibility of including product reviews with stars to your customers.<\/p>\n Show: <\/b>you can set the store page that you want, although I recommend that you leave the one created by the default plugin: “Store”.<\/p>\n Later you can have certain products displayed on that page, as well as the categories you create as you add products to your online store.<\/p>\n Images of the product: <\/b>you can establish the dimensions that are going to have the images of your catalog, products and miniatures of products.<\/p>\n Inventory:<\/strong> you can activate the inventory management and keep it in a specific amount (60 by default). You can also set an email for warnings and even set thresholds when your stock of products is coming to an end.<\/p>\n Another interesting option is to hide items that are running out.<\/p>\n Downloadable products: <\/b>the last sub-section of the products tab, you can adjust the download method of the digital files you have for sale. If you are going to sell infoproducts, it is recommended that you leave it as it is by default: allow access to downloadable products after payment.<\/p>\n Shipping: <\/b>This tab has in turn 3 other sub-sections that we will see below:<\/p>\n Finally, the pages corresponding to the purchase completion that was created upon completion of the WooCommerce installation process will be established, so we also advise you to leave them by default. If you want to use a blank page, we’ll show you later how to create a striking and effective sales page.<\/p>\n Below the tab that we are adjusting “Finish purchase”, all the payment modalities that the platform supports appear, so you only have to fill in the data of the ones you are going to use.<\/p>\n In the Stripe tab you will have to establish the secret keys that will provide you once you create your user account. It is important that you do tests before going on air, so you can enable it in the “Activate test mode” box.<\/p>\n Accounts: <\/b>This section I advise you to leave by default, as it will allow your user, once the process of finalization of purchase in the store, to register as a customer with your account and their corresponding data.<\/p>\n Emails: <\/b>to finalize, this last section is very important, since the messages that are created here, have the function of sending the clients to their email according to the result obtained in the process of finalization of purchase on the web. For example, there are messages of the new order, canceled, failed, waiting, etc. You can set the name and email of the sender (in this case you), and even customize the base template of the emails that will be used in each corresponding case.<\/p>\n In the “Status” section you will be able to see the data and the characteristics of the system where your WooCommerce store is installed.<\/p>\n In “Extensions” you can access at any time the premium plugins offered in Woo.<\/p>\n This option allows WooCommerce to integrate with external applications.<\/p>\n We complete the basic settings, it’s time to upload the products!<\/p>\n Click on Products and then on Add new, as we said a few lines back. You will realize that creating products is very similar to creating blog entries, so it should be easy for you. In any case, a virtual assistant will show you the process.<\/p>\n – Title: <\/b>Name of the product.<\/p>\n – Product description: <\/b>Make a striking and sincere description of the article. Advise yourself a bit with a copywriting specialist if you feel that you are not given.<\/p>\n – Product categories: <\/b>Sort the products of your store.<\/p>\n After the above data, you have to fill in a few more details.<\/p>\n – Product data: <\/b>indicates if it is a:<\/p>\n Afterward, you can indicate if it is a virtual or downloadable product.<\/p>\n Then add a normal and discounted price in your local currency or the one you choose.<\/p>\n – Short description of the product: <\/b>here you can add a brief description of your product that will appear under the title.<\/p>\n – Product image: <\/b>includes a prominent image of the item for sale.<\/p>\n – Product Gallery: <\/b>you can add several images to show the qualities of the article in question.<\/p>\n Finally, before publishing the product in the store, you can make several previous adjustments in the following tabs to finish editing your article:<\/p>\n You already have all the active tools, the basic adjustments made and your products created, but your store is still not displayed when you go to your web page. Very simple, your products will be shown on the page created by Woo, which is called “Store”.<\/p>\n <\/a>Using the Divi Page Builder you have the freedom to create the page as you wish, so you can build it as if you were developing the main page of your website.<\/p>\n Usually, the structure is similar to this:<\/p>\n This structure and style are often used for the sale of info products (ebooks, online courses, sale of memberships, etc.) or stores with few products.<\/p>\n To create the sales page in Divi go to the side menu and click on Pages. There, click Add new.<\/p>\n On the edit page, click on “Use the Divi builder” to start working on the design of our sales page.<\/p>\n We must create a blank page (“Blank page” template). This will be without menus, footers or links or other products. In this way, the user or possible customer can not be distracted by anything else and increases the possibility of completing the purchase.<\/p>\n The operation of the Divi builder is very simple: it offers sections, days, columns and within each section, you can place images, videos, presentations, text, etc.<\/p>\n If you want to guide you through the structure that we just mentioned, it would correspond to create a section for each of those sections. In each section, we can place all the rows and columns that we consider necessary.<\/p>\n Each of the sections can be designed down to the smallest detail with the design configuration panel. The recommendation is that when you add texts use subtitles and then short paragraphs with calls to action that encourage the client to know more about the product and complete the purchase.<\/p>\n After all the configuration, we have to make the purchase buttons (because the recommendation is to add two buttons, one in the middle of the page and one at the end). For this, the purchase buttons must be sufficiently striking. Slowly, we stop using those methods in which we first click on “Add to cart” and then we go to the cart to complete the purchase. The idea is to say directly “Buy” and take us to make the payment.<\/p>\n To define a personalized text for your purchase button, just use this code:<\/p>\n This code will change the text “Add to cart” to “Buy”, but if you want to show another, simply replace where it says “Buy” for the text you want to show. (Always in quotes).<\/p>\n Here comes the decisive step to trigger our conversion possibilities: instead of directing the cart, our button has to lead directly to the payment process.<\/p>\n To eliminate steps in the purchase process and get the customer to go directly to the payment page you must use the following code:<\/p>\n If, after adding the code, it still doesn\u2019t work, try disabling the WooCommerce option to add to the car with AJAX. To do this, go to WooCommerce, from to Settings, then Products, click on Show and deactivate the option Enable AJAX.<\/p>\nWhat is WooCommerce?<\/h1>\n
