Just wondering if there's any way to use WooCommerce/Wootique for an online catalog only -- no cart, no user accounts, just as a way of showing prices and offering affiliate links, so that when the user clicks on "add to cart" (except it would say something like "get it now") s/he's taken to another site.
Specifically, where in the code to go to to achieve that effect.
Thanks!
(I know this is a crazy round-about way of doing something WooCommerce was never intended to do but please bear with me and just regard it as a thought experiment of sorts!)

I did this for a client a while back :)
Right now you need to hook into all the pieces of code that display the add to cart buttons and replace them with some code which outputs a link/button. The URL would be defined in a custom field.
I believe this has been logged as a feature request to make the process easier so hopefully in the near future you won't need to touch the code at all.

Thanks for the thoughts, Mike -- and the heads-up on WooCommerce's development roadmap!
