Right,

My brother needs an e commerce site built, and I said I'd help him out.

Hes going to be selling Goalkeeping gloves and possibly other kit in the future.

I just need a nice looking wordpress E-commerce theme, that potentially sports a nice custom CMS for managing the whole thing. What would you guys recommend?

And also, whats people's experience with using wordpress for e-commerce? Can it work fine?

What do I need to get this rolling and working? What plugins should I need and how do I implement a safe, secure and working shopping cart & payment system?

  • I'm using Cart 66 ecommerce plugin with a Studio Press theme on Rolling T Stores. I'm very pleased with Cart 66 as you can put the cart/buy buttons anywhere on your site which comes in handy to put products on separate optimized pages as well as multiple products on a category page. You can track inventory and also have product variations (like color or sizes) either the same price or different prices. The one thing I wish they would improve is to be able to put related products on the checkout page.

    • I was thinking so too, as we use Joomla at work and our web guy uses it too. Ive only ever really used it for adding and editing articles, and perhaps replacing some images, but in general I dont really know it that well or have a clue. I'd prefer to use wordpress if I can, as Im a lot more confident and comfortable with it.

      Im considering this theme, it looks nice with some great functions included, particularly impressed with the shopping cart system.
