Crafty or no?

[midasselect]

Is this an abandoned project? Or should I keep trying?

I’ve been pulling my hair out with so many new and existing installs and I can see that there are many other threads over the last couple of years about people getting lost just setting up a Crafty demo site.

Should I expect to actually have a site that matches the demo at the end of this? With dummy products, pages, checkout pages etc. That’s what I’m aiming for but all I get when I install is a couple of pages (home, about and contact), two disconnected components (footer and newsletter block) and the images. There’s no products, no updates to woocommerce archive or single product layouts to match the demo etc.

Any advice would be welcome at this stage.

Hello Mike,

Thanks for writing to us.

Please ensure that you have installed all the required plugins and added products. I would also suggest you please purge all the cache from the cache plugin and temporarily deactivate the cache plugin. If it doesn’t work for you, please share your details in a secure note. Please provide the following details

• WordPress Login URL
• Admin-level username and password

You can find the Secure Note button at the bottom of your posts

Thanks

Hi @prakash_s, thanks for your reply. Since there’s no documentation for Crafty, where would I find the list of

all the required plugins and added products

Remember, this is a fresh install, so there’s only the pages that comes with vanilla WordPress and WooCommerce.

If there are steps that we should be following, that would be great!

Hello Mike,

I would suggest you please install all the plugins and set up the WooCommerce pages. I would suggest you please set the Permalink to Post name. You need to go to the WordPress dashboard —>Settings —>Permalink.

You need to go to the cornerstone—>click on the Plus icon —>Themeco —>search for “Crafty”

Hope it helps
Thanks

It doesn’t help, sorry. I know you are trying to guide me and I do appreciate that. But these are very basic steps that I have tried.

When you say “install all the plugins”, which plugins specifically are you referring to?

I’ve tried with WooCommerce installed and activated first, then I tried with it installed last. I’ve tried with Cornerstone (Pro) installed and ACF installed and activated first and then WooCommerce. I’ve tried lost of ways.

I see the footer component (which isn’t attached to any page - I can create a footer out of it, but this defeats the purpose of the demo. What I don’t see are products being installed.

To make my question more clear: What should I expect to be set up when I successfully install the Crafty site via Cornerstone>Themeoc>Design Cloud? What should the result look like?

That way, I’ll know if what I am achieving is actually the expected result.

Here’s a screenshot of what’s added to a fresh install (minus the WooCommerce pages for context) Is this right?
