Actually, the plugin’s description on the WordPress site makes it quite clear that there are premium versions that extend the basic plugin’s offerings:
Want more??? Get Zen Cart for WordPress Premium (zen4wp)
Zen Cart for WordPress Premium (zen4wp) adds more widgets (including the shopping cart, categories, manufacturers, reviews, and testimonials widget) and shortcodes.
To use the premium (paid) features, you must first install the (free) base plugin (Zen Cart for WordPress)
You missed the point. There is nothing in the ‘basic’ package. You can download the plugin but it only produces ‘markers’ there is nothing in them, so nothing is produced. It only works when you download the premium features.
So, I stand by my original post, it’s close to being a ‘scam’ or ‘comeon’ and should be deleted.

The basic offering provides sidebox look-alikes for your featured, specials, new-products and best-sellers. You can position those elements anywhere within your WordPress site.
Of course, if your site doesn’t have new, featured or special products, those boxes won’t display.
I agree with @lat9. The description is QUITE clear which widgets are included in the BASIC package (featured, specials, new-products and best-sellers). You have new products in your store, so the new products widget from this plugin should work just fine as it will read the same new products data that displays in the new product sideboxes and centerboxes in Zen Cart.
However, your site does not have featured products or any specials so those widgets will not display in the store sideboxes and centerboxes, and the featured and specials widgets from this plugin will also not display anything. If your site has no sales then the best sellers widget will not work as it works only if you have sales calculate “best sellers”.
Finally for the record, the New, Featured, & Specials sideboxes and centerboxes in Zen Cart do not work or display if you have no new, featured or special products. The Best sellers sidebox in Zen Cart will also not work if you have no sales.
