WooCommerce released and causes uproar!

Woo Themes have released WooCommerce.

Woo Themes are known for the high quality of their Wordpress themes and there were many folk looking forward to their release of WooCommerce. However, because of the pricing policy they (initially) announced there was a great deal of upset expressed in their forum and blog comments.

You can download WooCommerce plugin and a free theme if you are interested in testing the new framework. Bear in mind that you will have pay for any of the Extensions for the framework, unless you subscribe to their membership club. A lot of the furore arose because of the additional cost of the new themes and extensions. However, to their credit, they have changed some of the terms and conditions. Its worth reading the comments to get a better understanding of the issues but if you decide that you want to buy into this framework I suggest doing so soon as prices will go up next year.

In the meantime, after some initial problems (due to the GD library settings on my server - now resolved) I am testing the new framework out. You can visit my demo store or, if you are looking for the best wifi booster on the market, visit the life store here (coded in RapidWeaver and using RapidCart shopping trolley plugin).
