Overview
WooCommerce turns WordPress into a flexible online store. This guide covers the essential settings you should configure before adding products and accepting real customer orders.
Complete Store Details
Set your business address, selling regions, currency and measurement units. These settings influence taxes, shipping and how prices appear.
Configure Payments
Enable only the payment methods you plan to support. Complete each provider’s account setup and use sandbox or test mode before accepting live transactions.
LA STUDIO TIP
Make one meaningful change at a time and test the result before moving to the next step. This makes troubleshooting much easier.
Create Shipping Zones
Define the regions you ship to and add suitable methods such as flat rate, free shipping or local pickup. Verify rates with several addresses.
Review Tax Settings
Configure tax behavior according to your business and location. Tax rules vary, so confirm the requirements that apply to your store.
Check Store Pages
Verify Shop, Cart, Checkout and My Account assignments, then place a complete test order on desktop and mobile.
Final Checklist
Review the changes on desktop and mobile, confirm important links and interactions, clear relevant caches, and keep a recent backup before publishing major updates.
