 * Hi,
 * I have uploaded and activated the plugin. I have created the virtual product.
   I am not sure where the plugin comes in? Why do I need it or where does it go
   to do anything different than the virtual product by itself?
 * Thanks
    Sues

 * I believe the description for the plugin is somewhat misleading. Basically this
   is the rundown of the functionality I see:
    - Admin creates virtual product for gift card.
    - User/Visitor purchases gift card product.
    - Admin creates gift card under WooCommerce > Gift Cards.
    - Admin emails information for gift card to User.
    - User can then redeem gift card when checking out with another purchase.
 * Plugin creator has mentioned he’s wanting to make it so the gift cards are automatically
   created and emailed out.

 * This is a good run down of what the plugin does. I have updated it to so that
   the emails are sent out automatically however you do still have to create the
   products and the gift card. This way you can customize the cards the way that
   you want them.
