When you build your eCommerce site one of the first things you’ll do is create products. No good web store is complete without having good product images with each item you sell. A good product image can help consumers imagine the item in person and may help lead to more sales. Having a gallery for the product is even better!

So you’ve just setup your new WooCommerce site, setup your store’s theme – what’s next? Well first, congratulations on setting up your new WooCommerce store!

The plugin is currently built and developed by Automattic which is the company behind WordPress as a whole.

Managed WordPress Portal provides you an easy way to view the visual changes to your website when you update plugins. With the Visual Comparison Tool, your Managed WordPress Portal will create a staging site, update your plugins and give you the ability to see what changes (if any) the plugin update made to your site before it goes live. If there are no visual changes to the site, your plugins will automatically update on the live site.

Just as in your WordPress site and your Liquid Web account, you can create users in the Managed WordPress Portal to help you manage all your sites.
