Default Furniture Store Blog & Store

Hello All,

Well, I have decided it was time to get feedback on this site I have been working on for a local futon and furniture store in my area. I need some good honest feedback on how the site looks and presents itself. As of right now the store part is not up and running. It will go under the products section.

I am looking for a really good store plugin that will use a grid layout. One that I can set-up on this product page. If you have any suggestions of a good plugin for this and one that would be easy to train someone (store owner) on, I am all ears. I would love to see some examples also.

So let the feedback fly.

Thanks!
Tyy

Thank you for the positive comment. I had fun with these colors and creating the background.

A stunning looking site, top job.

How have you incorporated the bottom page part?

Hey steveivs42,

Thanks for the encouraging comments.

As far as the footer goes I took the footer from Brian's Streamline theme and integrated it into the Church theme. I really liked that look and wanted to use it with this theme, so I went for it and it seems to have worked out pretty good for this type of site. Thanks again for the feedback.

If you don't need to use recurring billing, try the wp-ecommerce plugin - they have a grid view add-on for the cart.

I have also heard great things about the Magneto shopping cart software, but haven't tried it myself (yet) and it's not integrated into the WP admin area...

Hey creativityincluded,

Thanks for the reply. Have you used the wp-ecommerce plugin before? That is the main one I have been looking at for this project, but when I sent them a question regarding this plugin, they never replied. So I am concerned that I will purchase this and then be stuck with no help. If you have any experience with this, I would greatly appreciate your feedback.

Thanks for your help with this.

Tyy
