## Installation

 1. Upload the `ecwid-widgets-avalanche` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Make sure you have an Ecwid store with an account that allows API access
 4. Visit the plugin settings page and click the button to connect your store

## FAQ

  The plugin won’t work. Why?

Make sure you have an ecwid store with an account that allows API access. This may
mean you need a paid ecwid account.

  Does this plugin make my site really slow?

Only for one page load. It calls Ecwid, gets your store data, and saves it to your
WordPress database for future use. Unless you have WordPress in debug mode and you
are logged in to the site. Then it does not cache.

  Wait, so there is a slow page load? For every user?

No, just for one user. Once one user loads the page, your WordPress site will have
cached the data from Ecwid, and this establishes the cache from which all other 
users will benefit for the lifetime of that cache.

  A cache? What if I make changes to my products in Ecwid.com?

You’ll need to dump your cached data in order to see those changes. There are three
ways to do that:
 1. Wait a few hours. The cache resets each day. 2. Click the button
to dump your cache in the plugin settings page. 3. Save or re-save any widget from
this plugin.

  The accordion widget shows some products multiple times. This is dumb.

It loops through all your categories, and shows all the products in each category.
If a product is in multiple categories, it will appear multiple times.

  Some of these widgets don’t do exactly what I want them to do. Can you change 
something?

Probably! Contact me at scofennell@gmail.com to inquire about custom work.

Nearly unusable: use Product Advisor for Ecwid instead Only one pro: the slider 
but it is ugly…

I was hoping that ecwid would have these widgets, but it did not. With this plugin
installed I get what I need for my shop. I installed 1.5.6 and found a small bug
that appeared only every once in a while. The minor bug was fixed almost immediately
by the author and 1.5.7 appeared right after. This plugin is clean and easy to understand.
Unlike some plugins that don’t look like they belong on the page, Widgets Avalanche
for Ecwid adapted to my CSS settings and looks like it belongs. These widgets do
exactly what I need to do for my shop.
