    In setting up my first online store page the product codes work to bring up the products, but the codes for showing the cart are rendered inactive due to WP changing the double dashes — into single long hyphen dashes –

    <!–show-wp-cart-for-digital-products–>

    becomes:

    <!–show-wp-cart-for-digital-products–>

    and therefore doesn’t trigger the plugin.

    This forum also turned my long dashes (alt+-) – into single dashes -, so I guess this will be doubly difficult to illustrate.

    Any workarounds?

    The easiest option is to use the following shortcode to display your shopping cart:

    [wp_eStore_cart]

    or

    [wp_eStore_cart_when_not_empty]

    These are explained on the video tutorials here:

    All the shortcodes can be found here:

    I figured out how to disable WP’s Visual Editor under my user profile, which got the shopping cart code to work!

    But now the issue is, I can only add one product to it at a time.

    When I click “add to cart” on another product, it doesn’t add it, it replaces the last item I had in the cart.

    Any ideas on this one?

    Hi, I am not sure why you have to disable visual editor for eStore to work. The new shortcodes that we told you to use does not have any dashes in it?

    This sounds like a PHP session issue. This post will explain more:

    PHP Session not Working Correctly

    You will need to contact your hosting provider to fix this issue. They will need to check that the PHP session is turned on and configured properly. This should only take them a few minutes to do.
