Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 9:49 pm

Now that you have installed WooCommerce, set up your shop, and created your first product, you may find that your WooCommerce cart is not working. There are a few potential reasons why your WooCommerce cart may not be working, and the most common one is that you have not set up your shop correctly. Follow these steps to set up your shop correctly and ensure that your WooCommerce cart is working properly:

1. Set up your shop layout

The first step in setting up your WooCommerce shop is to set up your shop layout. You will need to decide what products you will sell, where they will be located on your site, and how customers will be able to purchase them.

2. Assign products to categories

After you have decided on your shop layout, you will need to assign products to specific categories. This will help you organize your products and make it easier for customers to find what they are looking for.

3. Add products to your shop

After you have assigned products to categories and placed them on your site, you will need to add them to your WooCommerce shop. This will allow you to sell your products online.

PRO TIP: If you are experiencing issues with your WooCommerce cart, there are a few potential causes. First, check to see if your cart is set to the correct currency. If it is, then check to see if your payment gateway is configured correctly. Finally, if you are using a caching plugin, clear your cache and try again. If none of these solutions work, please contact our support team for further assistance.

4. Set up your payment options

One of the most important steps in setting up your WooCommerce shop is to set up your payment options. You will need to decide which payment methods you will use, and how customers will be able to pay for their products.

5. Create your WooCommerce checkout process

After you have set up your payment options and checkout process, you will need to create your WooCommerce checkout process. This will allow customers to purchase products from your shop.

6. Test your WooCommerce shop

Once you have set up your WooCommerce shop correctly, it is important to test it to make sure everything is working properly. You can do this by creating a new product, adding it to your shop, and testing your checkout process.
