    I am a new user and not super technical. I watched all of the videos and when I add products and categories it says they are created at the top when I hit “Save Product” however, no products are categories are showing up. I did a search and found a post where people were talking about tables and SQL server but I do not know how to do that. Please help.

    Thanks!

    This means the database tables didn’t get created or the columns are out of sync.

    You shouldn’t have to do anything with the SQL server. If you have recently upgraded the plugin then there is a good chance that you forgot to do the “deactivation” and “reactivation” of the plugin.

    If this is the first time you are installing it then please deactivate the plugin and reactivate it but at activation time pay close attention to see if you get any “Fatal Error… ” message. Let me know how you go.

    Can you please tell us if this was the first time you installed the plugin or you recently upgraded the plugin?

    Hi again,

    After upgrading the plugin I am now having the same issue. It says the new product is created, but it doesn’t save.

    I forgot to deactivate the plugin before I upgraded it, but I deactivated then reactivated it again afterwards.

    Help please!

    Thanks, best wishes,

    Melinda

    This is one of the easiest kind of issues to fix :)

    Basically it happens if you don’t do the deactivation and reactivation properly at upgrade time but it’s not a big issue (there is nothing fatal that you can do here so relax :)

    I will jump on your server and fix it for you. Expect an email from us.

    I am bit confused with what you are saying. How can eStore have anything to do with “archives” pages?

    I have created a product under add/edit product under the one categories (eStore). After having done that, I also display the said product in the add/edit post under the correct category. However it also duplicate a copy going archives (widget) which means the product also go to archives. I belive something not done correctly. Pl advise.

    First you need to understand how WordPress works. Every blog post that you post on your blog will go to the archives. You don’t have to place a post in archive for it to go into archive. This word “archive” means… a collection of old records. So if you are showing the archives widget of wordpress then ofcourse someone will be able to browse all your old post. This has got nothing to do with the WP eStore or any other plugin.

    I initially added the plug in before I deactivated and deleted the older free “PayPal Cart” version. But I did not activate the new WP ESTORE. I realized I needed to remove it, then follow exact steps to upgrade which I did. Now, buttons are not showing up for products in the grid. They only show up like [ wp_store_…] etc….

    How do I fix this so the buttons show up again in the store?

    In the meantime–we went back to the old store version until this is figured out.

    Thanks!

    If the shortcode just shows up instead of the button then that means you have a typo in the shortcode.

    All the eStore plugin shortcodes are listed in the following documentation. Make sure to copy and paste the shortcode from there.

    https://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/ecommerce/wp-estore-shortcodes-and-functions-reference-460

    Create a test page and put the estore shortcode (that you want to use) then share the URL of that page so I can see if you have entered the correct shortcode or not.

    You can keep both eStore and the simple cart plugins active at the same time.
