New Store Front WordPress Theme by Templatic

When buying a store theme it is important for an impressive list of features to be included.  There are quite a few on the market which use WordPress and offer everything you need to build your online store, but the design we recommend the most is the new Store Front theme by Templatic.

Here are the features listed for the Store Front theme:

  • One Click Auto Install – This theme features our awesome single click install feature. You won’t have to set each and everything step by step (like you do with competitor theme). Simply Activate the theme and this theme auto populates sample products, categories and does the basic settings (you can remove them with single click). It’s much easier now to understand how the theme works and all you need to do is, edit the sample products and place your own. You do not need technical knowledge.
  • Usability - One of the reason it took us long time to complete the backend of the e-commerce themes is, usability. We studied best practices of building e-commerce websites, studied lots of successful online Store Fronts and brainstormed some of the key pages and functionality that may impact the sales process that your customer goes through. We reduced the steps of the process, restructured the purchase experience, debated on the small elements such as button / text / colors / notifications etc., finally concluding our base e-commerce theme to be one of the very easy to use and best performing purchase experience so far.
  • Different modes of Shopping Cart – You may sell anything – tangible or intangible using our themes. You have an option to create your website in any mode.
    • Shopping Cart – Like the standard shopping cart that you see on other e-commerce websites. You may choose to have “add to cart” mode and let the users add all the items they want and then lead them to checkout or, you can have “buy now” mode and take them straight to checkout when they select a product.
    • Digital Shop – If you are selling digital product of any kind, this is a perfect option for you. Are you selling icons, digital art, PDF, e-books, scripts or any other kind of digital goodies? Select this option and when a user makes a purchase, they will have an account generated at your site and they can download their purchase any time. You don’t have to worry about third party digital delivery sites.
    • Catalog mode – Maybe you only want to showcase your items and don’t want to sell it online? Simply choose this mode and you will have “send inquiry” button instead of buy now / add to cart. Visitors thus, can send an inquiry on the products they like.
  • Manage Products – Add / Edit / Delete products are as easy as you create a WordPress blog post. You have a custom panel where-in you can edit the product description, different parameters, upload product images etc. real easy.
  • Order Management – Depending upon the settings from your admin panel, you can manage the order – approve, process or cancel / reject an order.
  • Shipping Options – As an admin, you can choose Free, Flat rate; Weight or Price based shipping option for your Store Front. What’s more you can even set free shipping for particular items in case you’ve set other option for your Store Front.
  • Multiple Payment Gateways – You have PayPal, Authorize.net, Google Checkout, WorldPay, bank transfer and Cash on Delivery as payment gateway options. Choose the gateway you prefer.
  • Manage Tax – You may specify overall tax percentage that applies to all your products and, you may choose to leave individual products tax free.
  • Grid view / List view - Whenever you are browsing the product collection, you have an option to see the products in list view or grid view. It’s built-in by default.
  • Guest Checkout - Wish to provide an option to your users to checkout without registration? No problems. Simply activate the guest checkout option from theme admin panel and your buyers will not to register. They simply provide their email address and we create the logins for them. If admin wants, they can choose to send/not send their logins to them.
  • User registration – Users may register on your site or, they will be taken to registration page on the checkout procedure. They will have their own user area where they can keep track of their order, manage profile and download purchased digital products.
  • Bulk Upload ( csv ) – Using another shopping cart solution for your Store Front and want to switch to our Store Front themes? No worries. You can export your data from there in .csv files and import it in your WordPress installation when you use our Store Front themes. (sample .csv file included with the theme)
  • Coupon codes – Admin can generate coupon codes for occasional sales promotion.
  • Product Images - Built in multiple product image upload. Uploaded images are auto re-sized to fit various thumbnails required throughout the site. Also the product zoom functionality is built it.
  • Other parameters – Specifying Tax, weight, color(s), size(s) are easy. Also you may specify different prices for different size/colors just in case.
  • Specify product size(s), color(s), and other miscellaneous features – You may specify Size chart if applied, When viewing a product Similar Products are automatically displayed, Several additional custom widgets are built in such as customer support, Subscribe, socialize, promo banners etc. that you can use for your Store Front website.
