Site Building — Understanding the Basic Building Blocks of an IndieCommerce Site
9:00 am – 10:00 am
Do you find terms like “page,” “block,” “menu,” “content,” “views,” etc., confusing and making it hard for you to build your IndieCommerce site to your liking? You are not alone. In this session, we will explore the terms and technology behind your website, what these items are for, how they depend on each other, and how they all fit together to create an amazing and rich website.

Custom Products
10:00 am - 11:00 am
Selling store merchandise, gifts, and toys on your website has become easier! In this session, we will walk you through the steps for creating these custom products in bulk, creating “views” for promoting them on your website, and generating custom sales reports.
