Installation

  1. a) Install it via WordPress built-in Plugins installer or b) Upload extracted contents of the Dippsy plugin archive to your /wp-content/plugins/ directory.

  2. Create folder dippsy in WordPress content (wp-content) folder and make it writable (chmod 755). To do this use a FTP client or your hosting file manager, if any.

  3. Also, make writable images subfolder in the extracted Dippsy plugin folder.
  4. Activate the plugin (Dippsy) through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
  5. Set all fields on the Settings page, until the message on the top of the page stops showing.
  6. Enable IPN sending in your PayPal account profile. Use official PayPal guide to do this.
    Notification URL should be set as your WordPress index page, e.g. http://www.mystore.com/wordpress/index.php.
  7. Start adding new products via the Dippsy menu interface.
  8. NOTE: Before you go live with your store, please test it in Sandbox mode to check if Dippsy, PayPal and server are set correctly.

FAQ

What pages are created on activation of the plugin?

“Store”, “Completed order” and “Cancelled order”; together with shortcodes (see below).

Are there any shortcodes to use?

Yes. There are: * [dippsy_store] – used for displaying store frontend on page/post * [dippsy_complete] – displays completed order message * [dippsy_cancel] – displays canceled order message

All of these get set on appropriate pages by activating the plugin (see above).

What file type icons are used by default?

The nuvoX iconset.

I don’t like icons which are generated from blank icon.

Just replace the file blank.png in the images folder with your own, 100 by 100 pixels large image.
Note: center of the image gets overwritten with the extension name everytime a new extension is made,
so you should best leave it blank.

Can I use other icons?

Certainly! Just replace images from the images folder with your own. Be aware of their naming convention and their size: * thumbnail: [extension]_thumbnail.png (50px50px) * icon: [extension].png (100px100px) * blank icon: (view above)

Which iconsets do you suggest?

iChad PNG Filetype pack, DarkGlass Reworked, MIB Ossigeno Icons, to name a few.

What about compatible themes? Dippsy was made primarily for simple, lightweight and clean themes with light colours. Some of these are Manifest, Clear, Vanilla Cart.
