Hey folks! In case you haven’t been keeping up with WooCommerce updates, we wanted to share a pretty awesome thing they did with you yesterday. WooCommerce has released Storefront, which is an entirely free WooCommerce theme. And it’s fantastic. Lots of customers end up asking WooCommerce, “Which theme for WooCommerce should I use?” It’s a question we get at SkyVerge, and it’s one I get at Sell with WP frequently as well (which I also…
Most of team SkyVerge spent the past week at the first WooCommerce Conference in San Francisco. It was a spectacular week of team fun and learning, and we capped it off with Max and Justin’s first conference presentation. It was great to meet up with some friends we’ve met only online and to see some familiar faces. We met some WooCommerce store owners as well, such as Bradley at Copper Pan Jams (the kiwi jam…
Hello Authorize.net users! We just have a quick announcement to share with you today :). If you use our WooCommerce Authorize.net AIM or WooCommerce Authorize.net CIM payment gateway extensions, you may have received a notice recently from Authorize.net. It probably looked something like this: On September 30, 2014, we will be retiring IP address 64.94.118.33, which we noticed you are connecting to directly either for monitoring purposes or for your transaction processing. To prevent any…
We’ve recently been rewriting requirements for our open positions, and would love to find some talented developers to join the SkyVerge team. There are now three openings listed on our jobs page. We’re looking for one full-time and two-part time developers, all on an on-going basis (not temporary positions). However, as we’re growing, part time positions may evolve into full time positions if you’re looking for a permanent gig with benefits. We know that fit…
We’ve got an announcement that may only be exciting for us, but we still want to share 🙂 . We’ve now condensed most of our team into one location in Boston, MA! We were previously all working remotely (from different states no less), which is great, but felt inefficient for us. We now have the core part of our team all in the same office space, which has been really exciting so far. Our new…
Hello everyone! You’ve probably noticed already since you’re reading this with far more legible typography, but SkyVerge.com recently got a facelift! We’ve customized a new theme and made some structural changes that should make navigating our blog and products far easier. First, we’ve re-categorized products so that you can easily find relevant plugins (same goes for re-tagging all products for easier navigation). We’ve done the same with blog posts so that tagging and categorization now…
Authorize.net is a leader in payment processing, so it’s no surprise that our WooCommerce Authorize.net AIM payment gateway integration is one of our top plugins.

Version 3.0 is being released today, so you can download the update or purchase from WooCommerce! What’s in Authorize.net AIM Version 3.0? The major…
Hey everyone! We’ve got a couple of updates and and a new release we’d love to tell you about. Updates First, we know a lot of non-coders out there like our free WooCommerce Customizer, which helps change some of the standard WooCommerce layout, buttons, and text. We had some issues updating for WooCommerce 2.1 that requires some refactoring and tweaks, so we apologize for the delay in getting this out (of course this happens in…
WooCommerce 2.1 was released on Monday, and makes several changes to the core plugin. As a result, you may experience issues when upgrading if you don’t pay attention to a few of the changes. The guide that follows is a general overview of some things to look out for when upgrading to WooCommerce 2.1 to make the transition from WooCommerce 2.0 as smooth as possible. There are a couple of known issues that are being…
Hi everyone! We’ve been a bit quiet lately since we’ve been busy updating all of our plugins to be compatible with WooCommerce 2.1. However, we wanted to share some of the big changes we’ve made with you to some of the WooCommerce extensions we offer, so we’ll take a look at the WooCommerce Customer / Order CSV Export Suite first. Re-written to Maximize Performance We’ve rebuilt the extension from the ground up to vastly improve…
