[edit] Getting Started

Shopfitter 4 is very straightforward to use once you become familiar with it, however, like many things getting started is the most difficult bit.

Firstly, Shopfitter 4 starts up with a demo site to give you an idea of how a completed webshop looks once it's built.

You'll need to create a new shop to start your own e-commerce website...

Preparation - there's no substitute for thinking about what you need, here's a brief guide


Most functions are accessible from the pop up start panel, in addition you can click on the top left yellow Shopfitter trolley icon to open it.

  • Shop manager opens -> click 'Create' from bottom menu
