Oh Lovely! And can we make a payment option ‘like Cheque payment’ for only one country or 2-3 countries like Cheque only acceptable from United States, etc
Hi,
It is possible to create a payment method called “Cheque”, however it will be available for all countries, unfortunately.
Someday I’ll give it a try. But I have a question is the shipping calculation is on the basis of Country and weight. I mean 0-500gm to Uk cost this and to India cost that, etc because I prefer this type of shipping calculation.
Yep, it is of course possible: http://kb.ecwid.com/w/page/15853310/Shipping#Userdefinedrates
Yeah it’s a bit of a shame that it is hosted with them. But defenitely good for someone who doesn’t want a highly customised solution.
Well, the SaaS(software as a service) approach has some very neat advantages. For example seamless upgrades or performance.
I am trying to get feedback on Ecwid. I have to get a need cart. Is it complete enough for a small store or would I be better off with a cart I am paying monthly for.
Hi, what questions do you have about Ecwid?
Unfortunately it isn’t possible yet to add custom fields to checkout or registration process. Please vote for this idea, if you want this feature:
http://ideas.ecwid.com/forums/22031-ideas-ecwid/suggestions/404746-add-one-or-more-fields-to-customize-on-orders-?ref=titleThe video tutorial is horrible as the author’s voice echos all over the room. The author needs to speak into the microphone.
Thanks for the feedback! You’re right, the tutorial video should be improved. Well, that’s why our other tutorials are voiceless: http://vimeo.com/ecwid/videos : -)
I was so excited about this cart initially until I found that it’s hosted on their servers. I am not comfortable sharing all of my customers personal info on some server in Europe.
Ecwid doesn’t use a “some server in Europe”.
1. All the payment sensitive information(i.e. credit card numbers) is stored on the payment gateway`s servers. (for example on PayPal’s or Authorize.Net’s ones). Ecwid relies on the payment gateways to process orders and never touches credit card numbers.
2. All other information, such as product or order data, is stored on reliable US Amazon EC2 servers.When you use ANY shopping cart, the main question is trust. When you use a SaaS shopping cart provider(e.g. Ecwid), you should trust it.
If you use a shopping cart installed on any hosting, you should trust your hosting provider, because it stores your store data on some servers too.By the way Ecwid isn’t a newly created company. It’s made by the same company who made X-Cart(widely known PHP e-commerce app) and X-Payments (one of a few PA-DSS validated PHP apps in the world).

It’s your site’s CSS code: http://www.bytiny.com/wordpress/wp-content/themes/zenlite/color.css

In reply to: The FOUC blink – where to add the link element?It seems to blink when getting there first time but I can live with that.
We will fix this problem in the next Ecwid version. So no custom code will affect the loading bar.
As a quick workaround, you can remove this line:
background:#FFFFFF none repeat scroll 0 0;from this part of code:
tr { background:#FFFFFF none repeat scroll 0 0; color:#606060; }Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: The FOUC blink – where to add the link element?So do I place that in the wordpress scripts somewhere?
No. Add this code to your Ecwid theme.

In reply to: The FOUC blink – where to add the link element?Thank you for the link. The problem is caused by your site`s CSS style:
tr { background:#FFFFFF none repeat scroll 0 0; color:#606060; }In order to fix the problem, please apply this custom CSS style:

In reply to: digital file salesI’ve also looked at such ones as wazala ecommerce store, and and ecwid shopping cart, but these seem for advertising for their own sites/ signups and services elsewhere before you can use them.
Actually if you use Ecwid, the store will appear right on your pages, inside your site.
For example we use WordPress as a CMS for our main site. Check how our demo Ecwid store is integrated with it: http://www.ecwid.com/demo-frontend.html
