   Hi all, could anybody help me to decide? I'm a wordpress newbie and having a little difficulty.

   I'm looking for a business/portfolio and news theme. The primary role is to give news about the business and showcase previous work. However, there also needs to be a small section for selling products through the website for online payment or cash on delivery.

   So most of the themes I've looked at have been business/portfolio, and my favourites are U-Design, Modernize and InFocus but none have e-commerce built in.

   I have looked at e-commerce themes such as Propulsion and a few others but they are not as feature rich and not good for portfolios etc, and I don't really like them.

   How easy would it be to add e-commerce to one of the other themes? I have not done e-commerce before! Or does anyone have any recommendations for an e-commerce/portfolio theme?

   Many many thanks for any help!

   One thing to consider when you are picking a theme is that commercial themes (paid) are not supported here. Most of them have their own support forums -- but the quality of that varies -- so check that out before you spend any money! Also, if the theme does not have a GPL license, you won't be welcome here at all, so again, check into that before you buy.

   There are MANY great themes on the theme repository here and most can be customized or use plug-ins to do almost anything, including ecommerce. If you pick a theme that is current (look at the updated date) and many people are using, you'll have better luck with support here.
