The first step to getting your products ready to sell is showcasing them on a page layout called Catalog. There are 3 different Catalog layouts to choose from -- Product Thumbnails, Product List and Product Previews -- and you can switch back and forth between them. This layout is integrated with our shopping cart. After you have converted your site to paid, you can then turn on your shopping cart and all the cart buttons will appear by your products. It is recommended you follow through on all 3 steps before turning on your cart.
