To set product weight and weight units in WooCommerce, start from your WordPress dashboard. Go to WooCommerce → Settings → Products → General. Here, choose the weight unit, such as kilograms, grams, pounds, or ounces. Save the changes. Next, edit any product where weight is required. Scroll to the Product Data section and open the Shipping tab. Enter the product weight in the weight field. Save or update the product. This weight is used for shipping calculations, live shipping rates, and shipping rules. Always use accurate weights to avoid incorrect shipping charges and delivery issues.

To spot a PayPal scammer, watch for classic red flags. They may overpay and ask you to refund the difference, or send a fake “PayPal payment confirmation” email that isn’t from PayPal. They often pressure you to ship before the payment shows as “Completed” in your PayPal account. Be careful with “Friends and Family” requests for purchases, since it removes buyer protection. Confirm the transaction inside PayPal, not from screenshots. Check the shipping address matches the PayPal order details. Avoid clicking links in emails; log in directly. Use tracking and signature confirmation for high-value orders. If something feels rushed or unusual, pause and verify.

WooCommerce memberships are a way to sell restricted access on your site. You can create membership plans that let customers view special pages, download files, read premium content, or get member-only pricing and products. Memberships can be sold as a one-time purchase or tied to a subscription for recurring payments. Many stores use memberships for online courses, private communities, wholesale pricing, VIP discounts, or service portals. In WooCommerce, this is usually done with a memberships plugin that controls who can access what based on their plan.

WooCommerce itself is free to install and use on WordPress. Your overall cost depends on what your store needs. You’ll usually pay for web hosting and a domain name, plus an SSL certificate (often included with hosting). Many themes and plugins are free, but premium themes, paid extensions, and some payment gateways can add monthly or yearly fees. You may also spend on email, backups, security, and developer help. Small stores can start low-cost, while growing stores often invest more.

Yes. Stripe integrates with WooCommerce using the official Stripe payment gateway plugin. It lets you accept card payments and often supports wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay, depending on your country and settings. You can take payments directly on your checkout, and orders update automatically after a successful payment.

To add products to a WooCommerce page, first ensure that you have created the product(s). Next, edit the page you want to add the products to. Use the WooCommerce block editor or shortcodes to display products. For example, you can use the [products] shortcode to display a grid of products or the [product id="product_id"] shortcode for a single product. You can also manually select products from the product blocks or widgets within the page builder interface.
