This was a user article that was supposed to be placed on the username space for development and they dumped it right in and never finished it. The idea of the article was to flesh out possibilities with ecommerce features and had grandiose ideas about featuring conditional tags to showcase items by category, etc., which is still a great idea of examples but it was never finished. If the use of queries, conditionals, custom Page Types, etc., could be shown how to be used as the default functionality and not necessarily a Plugin, that would be cool. <br>
<br>Please note that the Codex team decided that when the WordPress Plugin Directory became stable to remove all WordPress Plugin "brag" pages and listings. As a rule, we do not support nor encourage any WordPress Theme or Plugin except those that "come in the box." We'll reference some as optional but not as the sole purpose of the article.<br>
<br>Good catch. Thanks!<br><br>Lorelle<br>

This page is about WordPress & eCommerce but focuses only on
the WP eCommerce plugin and how to set it up

<div>Should this incorporate other free eCommerce plugins like
Jigoshop? Or should it just be made into a totally generic
eCommerce page with just a list of eCommerce plugins?</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
Also, as a more general question: is this sort of page which
focuses on one plugin appropriate in the Codex?</div>
