Couple of Questions

I'm interested in recommending your theme to my friend Marilyn who runs a non-profit, no kill animal shelter. I've been promising to help her with a website and this theme just grabbed me. I tried something similar with OS commerce, but it just didn't work and it was very difficult for me to figure out (I don't have a lot of patience. LOL). I think your theme would nicely highlight her animals available for adoption on the main page, allowing sufficient space when clicked on to describe each pet in detail. It's very organized and appears fairly easy to setup and maintain.


My questions:

1. Do you have to sell items? Can you just have the image and maybe an 'inquiry' or 'donation toward care' button? Her animals are not available for sale and she asks only for reimbursement of vet care/shots, if the adoptive family can afford it, so having a buy now wouldn't really look right…

2. Does this theme come with other button images to replace the buy it now ones?

3. Can widgets be used? She signed up for a paypal account for the organization and would like to include a donation option. I only know how to do this with the free text plugin.

4. Can the categories, such as: Special Needs Pets, Adopted Pets, Available For Adoption, etc be used or do you have default categories already setup that must be used?

5. Do you offer special pricing for registered charities? I have a copy of her registration with the state and a copy of her 501(c)(3) from federal.


Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

Sorry about not responding much sooner. I was super busy all week, once again sorry for such a long wait!


1+3) You don't have to sell items to use the theme. In your case I could help you stip the buy it now and add to cart buttons out, and we'd replace it with a donation button instead., since that appears how you'd like it to work.


2) At the moment it only comes with our custom default buy it now / add to cart buttons, but since you'd only be asking for donations you wouldn't really need them anyways.


4) The default setup requires that product categories be under a parent category of “products”. I can easily change that for you Pets and then your additional categories could fall under it.


5) Unfortunately, no. :(
