Hi there!
Can somebody point me to a theme shop with WooCommerce ready Genesis Child themes? I mean with all the specific WooCommerce CSS, or maybe even some cool custom functionalities? There are plenty of Genesis Child themes out there, but that's reduced to almost nothing when I search for WooCommerce ready ones.
Thanks so much! 🙂

Thanks for your reply, I was aware of that threat. Nonetheless, I would like some WooCommerce ready themes, not the Genesis connect plugin 🙂
Something like http://restored316designs.com/product/adorn-theme/, for instance. 🙂
August 26, 2014 at 8:55 am #121118SusanModerator@Joan - I think you will find that that theme requires the Genesis Connect for WooCommerce plugin. (I can't access her site to doublecheck though - it appears to be down)

Thanks! But I just want WooCommerce ready genesis child themes. I know the Genesis Connect for WooCommerce and thats okay, but I want themes with all the specific CSS for WooCommerce. 🙂
Thanks again.

August 26, 2014 at 10:46 am #121141SummerMember@Joan, I'm not sure what you're looking for exists yet.
Several theme shops build their themes so they can sell them to as many people as possible, and not everyone wants to use WooCommerce. So a theme shop would be locking themselves out of potential sales by making a theme only for WooCommerce with all the WC CSS built into the theme. It would be more advantageous for them to make sure the theme works with the plugin, and let the plugin do all the work.
The plugin allows people to be able to add WC functionality if they want to use WC, or not worry about it if they choose to use a different cart. For instance, Themedy's Clip Cart works with Cart66, Cart66 Cloud and WooCommerce, but you will need the plugin to get the WC styles.
I'm pretty sure all of the ones in Kelly's list and Ben's list would require the Genesis Connect plugin.
I do recall playing with some themes with WC and not using the plugin, and the cart worked fine, but the CSS was all over the place, as you might expect. I can't recall ever coming across a Genesis child theme that only is for WC, that will work out of the box without the Genesis Connect plugin... but if you find any, I'm sure folks here would be interested to know about them!

You can use any Genesis theme with woo commerce and this plugin:

There is no genesis themes that is easier or more integrated than another.
