Hi I have bought this theme along with the Sahifa theme.
I have to say for the magazine side of things this is way better and more powerful for layouts (very confusing) but i see wht it has to be to get the power!
However being a national magazine we also do “shop the look” and a variety of deals to sell products we feature in the magazine.
The problem is that the woocommerce integration is no where near complete, there is no shopping cart icon in the menu which is a woocommerce class that should be hard programmed into the them as with every other woocommerce them out there. so i am using the woocommerce show cart plugin which is not ideal to be adding lots of plugins.
The documentation for woocommerce integration is none existent and the sidebar selection doesn’t work properly.
I need to be able to create a beautiful store from with featured products and special offers with a nice big header that pulls out the latest reviews.
Also you demo theme has a different footer in the woocommerce page than in the rest of the site this is also something required as it won’t do it on my theme so not sure how you guys did it? maybe its a different domain?
Also when reviewing a product we would need a buy it now button in the final thoughts comment box next to the rating so people could click and go to the store product to purchase?
Anyway it all seems very very close to me and with a little extra working could definatley be the best theme out there for shopping as well as magazines.
I installed sahifa first and have this running at the moment but can’t make the switch as intended. Coule you let me know if there are plans to expand on the woocommerce side of the theme or not please so i can make relevant plans for a switch over.
I would be using 2 licenses for 2 sites but also have my wifes 2 sites that i would probably buy 2 more licenses for and switch those over too.
You guys really are onto something here as we all know that content is king and if we can run our ecommerce sites at the back of the reviews and blogging section it makes for a better website but we have to be able to create a beautiful shopping home page!
Thanks for reading and i hope you decide to take that extra step.

Hi, and thanks for your interest for our products.
At this moment the theme is only compatible with the woocommerce plugin, not to much customization or custom code that change the woocommerce functionality. We only change the style of the plugin to be in according with the theme design and also added some settings in Theme panel for the custom sidebar and sidebar position.
In the next period we will concentrate to add more better integration with the Woocommerce like invoice and package label generator and other cool features.
About that icon in menu for the shopping cart is not a big deal, can be added via code at this moment until we will develop a complete solution.
Thanks for you message!
Have a nice day!
