If you resolve your issue, please post the solution. Otherwise we are none the wiser!

@daniel,

I deactivated the plugin and haven’t had a chance to go back and do any troubleshooting. On my dev setup I have tons of plugins but usually have active only a few at a time.

Mac OS X 10.6.8, Firefox 14.0.1, WP 3.4.1

Me too. Also on localhost.

@ovidiu I ran into the same problem with template overrides, and asked Support for help–turns out that WooCommerce Codex page is poorly written. It says “keeping the same file structure” but as the example shows, you DO NOT use the /templates/ directory in your file structure. So:

Copy:
plugins/woocommerce/templates/emails/admin-new-order.php
To:
[yourtheme]/woocommerce/emails/admin-new-order.php

Don’t include the /templates/ subdirectory in your theme, and the override templates should work. Hope this helps.

Part of the issue is that there are so many themes available out there that it’s impossible to support them all.

Yes, very good point. I was expressing frustration with Woo’s sketchy integration information, but after most of a day trolling their forums I did collect enough snippets to make a decent-looking single-product page. I won’t clutter up this thread any more but I plan on working up a couple of quick how-tos which might help a few folks out. IMHO WooCommerce has lots of good things going for it, just needs some time and maturation to make it easier to use with popular & custom themes.

Just starting to work with WooCommerce, and immediately running into the layout problem. It’s beyond me why they chose to include content wrappers that override your theme’s–it’s a guarantee that your pages will look like crap. Woo’s page on theme compatibility is sorely lacking: https://wcdocs.woothemes.com/codex/third-party-custom-theme-compatibility/

This page on integrating Jigoshop is way more helpful: https://github.com/jigoshop/Jigoshop/wiki/How-to-Properly-Wrap-Jigoshop-Content-in-your-WordPress-Theme

The above mentioned page says right out: “There is a bit of a challenge when first using the Jigoshop eCommerce plugin for WordPress in a theme for newcomers. The trick is to properly replace Jigoshop content wrappers with the ones in use in your theme.

“You would want to do this for most themes, as Jigoshop out of the box is only guaranteed to work with the twenty-ten and twenty-eleven themes. If you notice your sidebar(s) are below the products that Jigoshop lists instead of beside, then that may be your first indication that you need the following…”

As this is the most basic step in integrating WooCommerce into any theme, I’m surpised the documentation is so poor.

I am also getting a ton of “uninitialized string offset: 0” error messages.

How do we know which settings need to be entered? There are so many of them– do they all need to be changed from the default? Which setting(s), specifically, will throw these errors?

Sidebars are confusing in Twenty Eleven! Under the Appearance > Theme Options menu, The “One column, no sidebar” layout makes a narrow, single-column layout sorta like Tumblr. If you select either of the column layouts, and your homepage tis the default Recent Posts, you’ll get a two-column layout on the homepage and a one-column layout on individual Posts and Pages. But if you want a single-column homepage you’ll need to make a static page and set it as your homepage (Settings > Reading) and it will be single column. Then, if you want other pages to have sidebars, select Page Attributes > Sidebar Template from the editing window. You’ll need to select the Sidebar Template for every page that you want to have a sidebar. Hope this helps!

@ursula, Thanks! Added quotes around .mp3 and all is well. So appreciate being able to still use this plugin. ??

I am having the same problem. Emails are being sent from the blog email address, and changing the settings under Send Email From: dropdown to another administrator has no effect. I have tried several different administrators and nothing changes.

Wheelyweb, thanks! Got it working now with the latest version.

This plugin seems to be broken for 3.3+, in any case. What’s a good replacement?

@dew_h2o
I tried your code and it worked OK, insofar as the menu didn’t show up if it was empty–however, the container_class was ignored in the output.

What worked for me is this:

<?php if ( has_nav_menu( 'primary' ) ) : ?>
<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container_class' => 'menu-primary', 'theme_location' => 'primary' ) ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

I’ve come across this error in many plugins. Sometimes reporting the error to the plugin developer will help them to be aware of issues that should be addressed to keep the plugin up-to-date. Debug should never be used for production sites but it’s really helpful in development.

Thanks James. I appreciate your time and energy developing and supporting this plugin!
