Before you start
The shopping cart is designed to be used with product pages which hosted somewhere else so before
you start you need two things: a website and an HTML editor of some sort.
All you have to do then is add simple "Buy Now" buttons to your site.
They can be made from a form button or a text hyperlink and contain the product description
and the price. There is a working example "Buy Now" link in your Welcome email.
Your Welcome email
When you first join you are sent a Welcome email which contains very important information about your
account. It also contains two simple working examples of a "Buy Now" link and a Review cart link. You
can use those links as the basis for creating your own Buy Now buttons for other products or use one of the Button
makers.

Configuring your cart
The cart is initially created with a simple configuration which works without modification.
However, sooner or latter you will want to define your own shipping, sales tax and chose the
payment methods you offer your customers. Configuration of the cart is done entirely in Admin.
Finally, don't forget the FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) as most problems have been encountered before!

Publish your website
Everything except the Continue shopping buttons back from the cart will work from pages that are still
on your hard disk. So only upload your new site when you are ready. Test everything by placing an order
through the cart and make sure it does what you want it to do.
