Sell [Shopify](https://shopify.pxf.io/5bPL0L) products on WordPress with ShopWP. Buy buttons? We got your covered. Easily embed product buy buttons on any page with simple shortcodes and blocks. Send your customers directly to the Shopify checkout, or add products to the built-in ShopWP cart instead. We have all the shortcodes and blocks you need to build a uniquely branded ecommerce experience on WordPress.

Not only that, but ShopWP lets you sync your products into WordPress to easily create product detail pages.

Ditch the slow and complicated ecommerce solutions like Woo. Whether you need WordPress to power a whole storefront or just a landing page, ShopWP will provide beautiful layouts and give your customers the confidence they need to buy from you.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

Read the [full list of FAQ](https://wpshop.io/faq/)

= How does this work? =
You can think of WordPress as the frontend and Shopify as the backend. You still manage your store data inside Shopify (e.g., changing prices) and those changes automatically show inside WordPress. ShopWP is bundled with its own fly-out cart experience and allows you to sell directly on WordPress. When the user is ready to checkout, they're redirected to the defalt Shopify checkout page to enter payment information.

After installing the plugin, you can connect your Shopify store by following the easy to use wizard. After connecting, you can display your products in the following ways:

- Using the default pages "example.com/products" and "example.com/collections"
- Shortcodes
- Programmatically through the plugin’s Render API

You can also create product detail pages by syncing the product posts.

= Is this SEO friendly? =
We’ve gone to great lengths to ensure we’ve conformed to all the SEO best practices including semantic alt text, Structured Data, and indexable content.

= Doesn’t Shopify already have a WordPress plugin? =

They used to, but it has [been discontinued](https://wptavern.com/shopify-discontinues-its-official-plugin-for-wordpress).

Instead, Shopify has moved their attention to the buy button embed; allowing users to show products with a JavaScript code snippet. The main drawback to this is that [Shopify](https://shopify.pxf.io/5bPL0L) uses iFrames for the embed which limits the ability for layout customizations. Additionally, managing multiple JavaScript embeds can get annoying really fast.

In contrast, ShopWP creates an iFrame-free experience allowing you to sync Shopify data directly into WordPress. We also save the products and collections as custom post types which unlocks the native power of WordPress itself.

= Does this work with third party Shopify apps? =
The only "Unfortunately no. We rely on the main Shopify API which doesn’t expose third-party app data. However the functionality found in many of the Shopify apps can be reproduced by other WordPress plugins.

= How do I display my products? =
Documentation on how to display your products can be [found here](https://docs.wpshop.io/getting-started/displaying).

= How does the checkout process work? =
ShopWP does not handle any portion of the checkout process. When a customer clicks the checkout button within the cart, they’re redirected to the default Shopify checkout page to finish the process.

= Does this work with Shopify's Lite plan? =
Absolutely! In fact this is our recommendation if you intend to only sell on WordPress. More information on Shopify's [Lite plan](https://shopify.pxf.io/vnqbrj)

= Can I use this and Shopify at the same time? =

Absolutely! ShopWP doesn’t prevent you from using [Shopify](https://shopify.pxf.io/5bPL0L) on other platforms like Facebook or using a Shopify theme directly.
