Shopp

Shopp was introduced in 2008 as a premium plugin by the team at Ingenesis Limited with 15-years of experience in the e-commerce industry. Today, Shopp is free and developed by a community of volunteers to provide a solid e-commerce toolkit with the best engineered framework for developers to build upon.

Shopp consistently wins accolades for it’s WordPress-native administration tools giving it the most natural management experience you’ll find in a WordPress e-commerce solution.

Wired for Performance

Engineered beyond the WordPress blogging architecture, Shopp goes to great lengths to deliver the best performance possible.

Strategic use of custom database tables (for native decimal columns) improves load performance for catalogs of thousands, hundreds of thousands or even millions of products. A summary table is designed to build a transparent queriable cache of product pricing data to allow for simpler queries. Simpler queries means faster results. Faster results mean a snappy website!

A specialized record processor takes record data right from the database lookup and sets them up into a working data model in a single pass. This reduces CPU utilization and memory consumption freeing more resources to handle more visits. More visitors means more opportunity for making sales.

Did we mention speed is now a crucial SEO metric? Yeah, it is.

Make it so.

Shopp is built for developers because, let’s face it, every ecommerce project is customized. A suite of APIs give you a powerful toolkit to create personalized ecommerce experiences for any business. The Shopp APIs offer a consistent, composable, unit test proven, battle hardened development platform so programmers stay in their zone of happiness. There are hundreds of theme functions and hundreds more WordPress hooks… enough to make a grown geek cry. See it for yourself and explore the full API reference.

Not too much. Not too little.

Going into battle with an ecommerce project often means theme wrangling. When it does, Shopp gives you a manageable number of starter templates to work with. You’re not boxed in by shortcode-only page drop-ins and you don’t have to cope with 100 different template parts to get your job done like other systems. Shopp starts with just a dozen template parts, a couple email templates and a couple stylesheets. Not too much, and not too little. Dynamic templates names allow you to create as many new template parts as you need for anything your job requires. Manageable and flexible.
