Keep your visitors looking with Minilist

One of the common usability recommendations for any online shopping site is to ensure that shoppers can find the things that they want with the least number of clicks. Currently in a Printfection store, if a shopper is viewing one product, lets say a mens tshirt and they wish to see what other shirt styles are available, they need to click back up on the breadcrumb or menu to get back to the parent section. Until now!!

Welcome to Minilist

Introducing Minilist, a new way to have small pictures of all products from the parent section shown under the current product:

Printfection Store customization just got easy - TeePlates Themer Launched

TeePlates themer Logo

As part of my ongoing commitment to make Printfection the best place to be for store holders, I bring to you TeePlates Themer.

Themer is a completely visual Printfection theme customisation tool that allows you the store holder to select all of the aspects of your store's look and feel without needing to know any CSS or doing any coding.

Just point, click and select the colors, fonts, borders and backgrounds that you want, and once you are happy, download all the generated CSS that you need to have your store looking just right.

TeePlates Themer Store Designer

Themer is designed to work with the "Sandbox" printfection theme, so all you need to do is select that theme and then paste the downloaded CSS into the custom CSS for your store.

Join the community

It's more than just a design tool though, it is in fact a community driven site that allows people to create, publish and share their created themes. With your support, Themer can become a very large repository of free Printfection themes.

To Build a Better Slideshow

Its been a while since I released the original TeePlates slideshow. I have seen it used well in many stores. There have been afew requests for some improvements to be made, including being able to have more than one slideshow on a page as well as some alternative transitions to the default fade. Well, as is often the case, the original really as not designed with these sorts of  things in mind, so it was back to the drawing board.

Thankfully, someone has already created a great slideshow that I was able to tune up for Printfection use. Based on Malsup's Jquery Cycle plugin, the new improved slideshow is here. You can now choose from a wide range of transitions and can have as many slideshows on a page as you would like.
