   Hello,

   I have recently purchased / redesigned an ecommerce website. I am a wordpress developer and am interested if anyone has ecommerce + wordpress experience?

   Are there security issues I should be aware of?
   Should I utilize wordpress' great CMS features but work with a shopping cart system?
   Would Magento or Shopify be a better solution?

   Site in question: Classic Adirondack Chairs

   There are 2 ecommerce plugins that I use and recommend. For ease of configuration and use - especially for downloadable products - I use WP eStore by Tips and Tricks HQ.

   For products with complex shipping requirements or for merchants in locations with complex tax requirements (such as California) I recommend Shopp. Shopp is a "developers" plugin. It was built to be customized. It is full of hooks, and filters that allow you to interact with all of its processes. It also has a simple templating method for the various elements (shopping cart, check out, product display) that easily survives upgrades. Its a great product.
