If you would like to change this so that all references on your site clearly indicate that you are selling in a particular currency then here’s how you do this. You can add letters to the currency symbol so that it displays as “US$” instead of just “$” by placing the following code in your functions.php file.

1. In the code below you need to change the text ‘ABC’ to the be currency code that you’re referring to, for example USD.
2. In the ‘Currency name’ you should write the name that you would like to display in the dropdown in the settings of Woocommerce where you set the currency.
3. Where you see ‘$’ you should change this to whatever you wish to make it, for example: ‘US$’

add_filter( 'woocommerce_currencies', 'add_my_currency' );

function add_my_currency( $currencies ) {

$currencies['ABC'] = __( 'Currency name', 'woocommerce' );

return $currencies;

}

add_filter('woocommerce_currency_symbol', 'add_my_currency_symbol', 10, 2);

function add_my_currency_symbol( $currency_symbol, $currency ) {

switch( $currency ) {

case 'ABC': $currency_symbol = '$'; break;

}

return $currency_symbol;

}

This won’t stop existing captions from displaying. It will simply stop the caption field from showing in the editor so that captions can’t be added to any new images that are uploaded.

// Hides caption field in image editor
add_filter( 'disable_captions', create_function('$a', 'return true;') );

1. In the destination page, while in edit mode, click on the ‘Text’ tab in the top right of the editing area. This will allow you to view some of the page’s code.
2. Scroll down to the location you’d like to link to and type in the following, using only lower case: <a name=”point1”></a>
3. Replace “point1″ with a word of your choosing that is meaningful, keeping it short and appropriate.
4. Double check it – if you get it even slightly wrong it will cause problems.
5. Switch back to ‘Visual’ tab.
6. Hit ‘Publish’.
7. Now, go to the page where the link will originate.
8. Create a link as per normal, but include the anchor at the end of the url. Look at the example below carefully as you must follow it exactly and include the slash and hash before your anchor word:
9. Normal link: http://www.example.com/examplepage/
10. Anchor link: http://www.example.com/examplepage/#point1
11. Hit ‘Publish’ and then make sure you view the published page and check it works!

Tips:

If you’ve not used the text editor before here are a couple of tips to bear in mind:

• The text editor can be unforgiving if you make a mistake so be very careful.
• It helps to insert the anchor a line or two higher than the point you’d like to link to. This way the title of the section you link to will appear.
• All code in the editor will come in pairs. E.g. <b> followed by </b>. The second item of the pair always begins with a slash. Don’t put anchors between any of these. Always put them outside of any pairs you see.

1. Highlight the text you wish to link
2. Click on the chain icon in the tool bar immediately above the text editor area
3. The box that pops up (see below) will have the “Url” field already started with “http://”

Then either method 1:

1. Click on ‘Or link to existing content’
2. Search for the page you want to link to and click it (you can type the name of the page in the search field)
3. You don’t need to do anything else, just click the ‘Add link’ button

Or method 2:

1. Delete the “http://”
2. Go to the page you wish to link to and copy the full link from the address bar.
3. Paste this link into the url field below.

Editing existing links:

1. If you want to edit an existing link, then place the cursor in the word that links and click on the chain icon and follow these same steps.

IMPORTANT – once you’ve followed these steps, always go to the published page and check that the link works as expected.

/** Removes Woocommerce breadcrumb */
remove_action( 'woocommerce_before_main_content', 'woocommerce_breadcrumb', 20, 0);

add_filter( 'loop_shop_per_page', create_function( '$cols', 'return 12;' ), 20 );

Pros

• The support is generally pretty good, although it takes them a day or two to respond.
• It is a very robust system so you can be confident that it won’t break easily.
• In addition to its ecommerce it provides a reasonable content management system so you can run your whole website here including a blog and other pages. Although it won’t be ideal for larger sites, just if you want to add a small number of non-shop pages.
• There are a number of good themes or templates that you can use, these are normally purchased for around US$100-150.
• It provides ready to go integration with a massive range of payment gateways.
• A lot of templates are responsive so work well on mobile. The checkout screens actually look better on mobile than they do on the desktop!

Cons

• Images load slowly in New Zealand, and presumably in some other countries.
• Cost. This will be reasonable for some and not for others since there is a monthly fee and then a commission on all sales. Other systems like Woocommerce for WordPress will probably take a comparable time to implement but have minimal cost, however Woocommerce would require a steeper learning curve.
• It’s difficult to get a real handle on the whole checkout process without purchasing a plan. You can see most of the payment system but you don’t know exactly how it will work until you’re purchasing real items.

In summary:

I’d suggest that Shopify is a good solution for a wide range of businesses. I’d personally use Woocommerce as I’m more familiar with it, and that’s important. I also think Woocommerce is much more powerful. But for a novice or someone looking for a straight forward solution that works well out of the box, then Shopify would be a good solution.
