Storefront for sales from another website

    Hey, all.

    I am a rep for a fitness line that wants to link my online products from my companies hosted site to my blog. The companies site is boring and not user friendly. I want to make my products available to my customers in my own fun format. Here’s the catch. I don’t need a shopping cart. Just need to be able to have a storefront gallery, so to speak where the customer can be linked back to the companies site to check out. Make sense? Any tips? Plugins? Learn to write HTML and CSS?

    Stay away from Storefront templates, they are slow as hell!

    I bought one (storefront grid) and tested it with only 2 products, the site was really slow! That means slower than 75% of all sites tested on Pingdom. It took about 30 seconds to see the first page or any page.

    I had latest version of WordPress with no other widgets installed. Storefront is a disaster!

    I asked for help but the reply was not solving the speed problem.

    Moreover when i asked for a pay back, they didn’t accept.

    I lost my money from Storefront and had a terrible experience 🙁

    The solution for me is to use WP-ecommerce plugin and try the grid extra widget with some custom theme (or the default one).

    It’s much better and the speed is enormous. Now I hace 200 products and the site is flying.

    We had an issues with slow themes from Storefront as wel. It can be fixed by removing the function call add_action('wp_head', 'presstrends'); from the functions.php file.

    They are tracking users.

    Hope this helps!
