WooCommerce
WooCommerce is not compatible with Simply Static. Since ecommerce is a Studio feature, you will need at least one of our paid products to use it.
About this Plugin
WooCommerce is the open-source ecommerce platform for WordPress.
Static WordPress Challenge
Product catalog, shop pages, and individual product pages will render statically for guests. Cart, checkout, user account areas, and download functionality require live PHP (use Simply Static Pro's form processing). Admin features, AJAX endpoints, and user-specific content won't work in static mode. Consider using WooCommerce's REST API with a headless setup for full e-commerce functionality.
